CRL Talks

Happy Holidays

Hello CRLers!

Hope you all had a great holidays and are ready to start 2021 off great! Are you (or someone you know) interested in speaking at CRL?

The CRL talk series provides an excellent opportunity for sharing new work, getting feedback on ongoing work, presenting practice talks, or otherwise sharing research with local colleagues.  Talks can range from polished presentations, practice job or conference talks, to sharing "hot-off-the-press" findings. It would also be a great place to run a new data analysis you did on old data past the community!  We also welcome talks from scholars who are outside of UCSD, as long as they are able to present during our regular time.

Once again, CRL WILL BE FULLY ONLINE THIS QUARTER.  So presentations will occur via Zoom.  Therefore, presenters do not need to be local to present.

If you would like to speak, nominate a researcher or colleague, or have a lead on someone who may be interested in speaking, please let me know of your interest and availability as soon as possible.

CRL talks are at 4 p.m. on Tuesdays and will occur via Zoom links that will be sent out in emails via the CRL listserv.

The following dates are available:

Jan 5
Jan 12
Jan 19
Jan 26
Feb 2
Feb 9
Feb 16
Feb 23
Mar 2
Mar 9

If you’d like to present, but can’t make one of those dates, just let me know.  Additionally, if you would like to present in Spring 2021, also let me know and I can jot you down to contact for future quarters!

If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to contact me.

Thanks!
Emily
