Group Meetings

Published by admin on Monday, March 1, 2010

The Gravity Group at UMississippi has a regular weekly scheduled meeting throughout the year to discuss current research progress, topics of interest and new papers. Typically, each week, two members of the group each make a short presentation, either about their current area of research or a paper that has attracted their interest.

For Summer 2025, the Group meets on Wednesdays at 11AM-12PM for a journal club and on Fridays at 11AM-12PM for a research update, both a scheduled ca. half hour presentation and room for free-form updates. The schedule of speakers for this period is:

The group also has a running series where an external speaker is invited to give seminar talk during one of the usual meetings on their area of research or any topic of interest. The seminar then replaces the usual format of the meetings on those days. The list of external speakers will be updated as time goes on.
