I2PC Distinguished Speaker Series
The Distinguished Speaker weekly seminar series features the latest I2PC research developments. Speakers include I2PC research faculty, industry research affiliates, post-doctoral researchers, and graduate research assistants.
The seminars held on Thursdays from 4-5 pm in the Siebel Center. Unless otherwise noted, seminars will be held in Room 3405. Speakers, dates, and locations will be added as the year progresses, so check back for updates!
Note: Some talks are I2PC-internal, meaning only people who have signed the Informed Participation Agreement can attend. If you would like to attend or access archived media from these talks, please ensure you have signed the agreement, then email Meg Osfar for the username and password to the archive. If you are an Intel employee, you are not required to sign the Participation Agreement. Please email from your Intel account for the username and password.
A detailed schedule with abstract and speaker bios is available.
Webcast
For those unable to physically attend the talk, a live webcast is available. Additionally, a chat interface has been set up for those who want to ask the speaker questions during the talk.
In the event that a talk is I2PC-internal, a single-use webcast address will be emailed to I2PC members prior to the talk.
Upcoming Seminars
Unless otherwise noted, seminars will be held on Thursdays, from 4-5pm, in room 3405 Siebel Center.
