The purpose of the seminars are to promote interdisciplinary discussion of topics relating to Human-Computer Interaction and to facilitate communication between members of the UMD HCI community.

Integrative Neuroscience

Linguistics colloquium series

The linguistics graduate students organize a colloquium series every fall and spring semesters. They bring linguists in from all over the world to present their most current work. Often, the Maryland Colloquium Series is the first public presentation of ground-breaking research.

Colloquium talks are open to the public, and occur on Fridays at 2pm in Marie Mount Hall, Room 1304. Life Sciences Seminars

Matthew Cheely ( Ph.D candidate), and a self confessed computer geek, combined his background in Marine biology and mathematics to pursue graduate work in computational neuroscience at nacs. ..."So, I sent in my letter of acceptance to the program, which basically said “Hey, I'd like to work in this lab with all the robots. I know my degree is in marine biology, but I think I can pick up this whole EE thing as I go.” | More |
