Schedule
All lectures will be held in Blackett (physics) Lecture Theatre 1 and online on Teams.
Tentative schedule below varies from day to day and will be somewhat flexible -- if you're tuning in online do not expect timings to be precise.
Preliminary notes.
We do not provide lunch but there are a number of food outlets on campus and nearby, especially on Gloucester Road, and there will be some tea, coffee and pastries available at the end of the lunch break (just before 3pm) each day.
