The talks are all happening at University of Southampton (in person), on
Highfield Campus
(SO17 1BJ). For the building and the room, see the individual postings.
Email the organiser ( a (dot) guidolin (at) soton.ac.uk ) if you have questions.
(This page renders an iCalendar (a.k.a. ics) file; you can add it to your
calendar application directly; then the talks will automatically show up in
your calendar as soon as it is updated. The link is
