LSLT: Upon Reflection. This semester, we've asked presenters to give reflective talks about their (or others') prominent work from the past. How did they understand the question then, and how do they see it now? See the full lineup here! Lunch will be served starting at 12:15. Vegetarian options available. Let us know if you have other dietary restrictions!
We hope to reschedule this talk for later in the fall or next semester!
