Upcoming Presenters
For the weeks where we do not have a guest speaker, CSL lab members will be giving presentations. Presenters can choose to cover either their own research or a relevant paper, unless otherwise notified. Upcoming presenters will be given two weeks' notice; if a conflict arises, the presenter is responsible for finding someone else in their group to take their place. The following list is the order in which people will have to present. The list was chosen randomly, ensuring that no one research group presents two weeks in a row.
- Rob Karmazin
- KK Yu
- Mark Cianchetti

- Paula Petrica
- Han Wang
