General guidelines and info

  • The meetings are weekly, 1-hour long sessions, consisting of one 15-minute paper talk, 15-minute discussion, and a 30-minute free discussion session on recent arXiv papers.
  • The paper in the first half is freely chosen by the person leading the discussion.
  • In the second half hour, we have short (<5 min) presentations on papers not older than two weeks. The goal is to give motivation in a broader context: why the paper was written, the big science question, and one or two plots.
  • Speakers are selected randomly by an oracle. Exceptions can be requested to organizers.
  • The goal is to practice reading and presenting papers without over-preparing.
