The TCD Statistics Seminar series for Hilary Term of the 2020/2021 year will take place on Microsoft Teams, unless otherwise stated. Seminars usually involve a 30 minute presentation followed by 15-20 minutes discussion. Access to the online meetings is currently restricted to users whose email addresses are on the email distribution list for the Seminar Series. If you would like to be added to the distribution list, or to a particular talk, mail tobinjo at tcd.ie, including ‘Seminar Series Access’ in the subject.
Talks on work in progress are encouraged, as well as presentation of completed research. The seminar series also provides graduate students with an opportunity to develop their presentation skills and discuss their research.
