Welcome to the Graduates Reminisce Online On Topology (GROOT) Summer Seminar 2022.
The goal of this online seminar is to provide a regular meeting place for graduate students to share research and expository talks over the summer as well as some time to network and socialize with peers. All incoming, current, and recently graduated grad students are welcome to participate. If you are interested in joining this seminar, please fill out this form. Responses are checked weekly so participants can join at any point during the summer. It is encouraged to attend as many talks as possible. However, there is no attendance requirement as summer schedules vary widely.
Regular meetings are scheduled based on participant and speaker availability. This year, most of our meetings will take place on Wednesdays from 12-1 pm EST. Talk scheduling is ongoing and additional talks may be scheduled dependent on interest and the time zone of the speaker.

For speakers:
Prepare a 50 min talk with an additional 10 min for questions. Format is completely up to you, but should be Zoom and microphone friendly.
Keep in mind participants in this seminar share a wide range of research interests. Aim to include background making your main ideas follow-able and interesting to those only vaguely familiar with your topic, while also including additional detail for more knowledgeable participants.
Log on to Zoom 5-10 minutes early so we can make sure all technology is running smoothly.
