Pizza Discussion
On Tuesdays, KIAA has an astro pizza discussion, led each week by postdocs at KIAA or DoA (Only postdocs can join this discussion).
The topic could be one's own research, or any question or material the speaker finds appropriate to discuss in this forum. Unlike a lunch talk, the speaker is not expected to make a presentation; relevant figures are printed and passed around, and a white board is used if necessary. The event takes place on the second meeting room of the KIAA building on Tuesdays at 12.00 h.
Contact persons: Chun Wang (wchun[_at_]pku.edu.cn); Hassen Yesuf (hyesuf[_at_]pku.edu.cn)
