Information for student speakers
Talks are 15 minutes, including time to set up and answer questions. It's best to plan on speaking for 12 minutes. Bring your slides on a USB key to use with the podium computer. Remember that most of the audience will be students who haven't studied your area of research! We recommend practicing in advance.
