Seminars 2020-2021
Considering the uncertainty of the pandemic situation, the MIPSE Executive Committee has decided to conduct all MIPSE seminars in 2020-2021 academic year virtually. A link to the Zoom meeting will be sent to the MIPSE community a day before each seminar; to join the mailing list, or to request accessibility accommodations, please send an email to mipse-central@umich.edu.
Video recordings of MIPSE seminars are posted on this website with permission of the speaker. An audio transcript is also posted for those seminars that were delivered by Zoom. The transcript is computer generated and may not replicate the speaker's words. For an accurate recording of the speakers words, please watch the video. The University of Michigan and the speakers do not take any responsibility for errors in the transcript. Quoting from the transcript is prohibited.
