Agenda
Please find the GLEAM agenda here:
Meeting Overview
The meeting is currently scheduled for 1-5 pm November 11 and 9 am to 1 pm November 12.
We will try to accommodate all proposed contributions with speaking slots of order 15 minutes for all graduate students and post-docs, leaving short, pop-up talks to advertise work for other speakers in “lightning rounds” at the end of each session.
For all accommodation requests received, reservations have been made. If your plans change, please let Michael Meyer know as soon as possible. The talks are divided roughly into four topic areas:
1) Planet Formation and Discovery
2) Dynamics
3) Planets and their Stars
4) Characterization
The regular talks are meant to be 12+3 = 15 minutes total (graduate students and post-docs), and lightning talks are meant to be 3+2 = 5 minutes total (for everyone else).
Thursday Night Social
We are planning a social event on Thursday night (November 11th) for GLEAM. The event will take place at the Blue Tractor (https://bluetractor.net/aa/), a local restaurant within walking distance of campus. The event will take place at 6:30 PM and GLEAM will be covering the cost of the food and drink. Please fill out the following poll if you are planning to attend, preferably by next Monday.
