Seminar Rules
Use your full name to log in so that other participants know who you are. Names of participants will be visible to all.
As a participant, your audio and video will be muted/turned off to preserve bandwith and prevent noise.
You may ask questions during or at the end of the talk via the Zoom Chat or by "raising your hand". Your question will be read by the moderator to everyone; or you will be unmuted so that you can ask the question yourself.
You can write chat messages to everyone. There is also a private chat for 1-to-1 communication.
