Presentations- Upcoming
I am listing the open seminars that I will be doing in
the near or far future. Since I am not involved in the logistics
of these seminars, I have linked each to the entities responsible
for running the seminars. If you have any administrative questions,
please contact them. If you have questions about content, you can
email me or check past seminar presentations (below).
(Note that this calendar has been frozen in its 2019 format, just as a reminder that COVID has upended our lives. I have continued to teach almost as many classes from the comfort of my home and I am not sure that I will ever get back to traveling the way I did prior to the pandemic.... But that's a decision that has to wait for another day!)
