[BNC-all] BNC Seminar Series - Thursdays at 10:30 in 1001, Fall 2007

[Kalapi Biswas]

Dear Birck Nanotechnology Center Researcher-

 The Nanotechnology Student Advisory Council (NSAC) is hosting a Birck 
Nanotechnology Center Seminar Series.

     When: Thursdays at 10:30 am (Fall 2007)
     Where: Birck 1001
     Format:  Each seminar will last an hour with ~ 40-45 minutes for the 
presentation and the remainder for questions.

 We hope to have an even mixture of professors and graduate students 
presenting their research.  Guidelines for the presentations are as follow:

 Professors (see memo of 11/27/06):
 * Overview of your research at a level geared towards recruiting new grad 
students or reporting to a funding agency
 * Presentations will be videotaped and posted to the BNC website in Breeze 
format

 Graduate students:
 * Feel free to present on your research or on a "journal club" article 
 * These seminars are a great opportunity to practice your prelim or thesis 
defense before presenting to your committee
 * If you are giving a talk at an upcoming conference, practice here first.  
If your talk is short (15-20 minutes), pair up with another grad and you both 
can present one Thursday.

 If you are interested in presenting a seminar, please contact Annie Cheever 
(acheever at ecn.purdue.edu).  If you have further questions, please contact 
Annie or Kalapi Biswas (kgbiswas at purdue.edu, NSAC research awareness chair).  
Thank you.
