Attendance
Attendance at the weekly seminar is strongly recommended for all group members and mandatory for the following categories:
- Master’s students actively involved in the lab
- PhD students
- Postdocs
Exceptions apply in cases of illness, conference attendance, or other valid reasons.
Talk Format
Each seminar consists of a ~25 minute talk, followed by a discussion. The topic should be related to cybersecurity but does not need to be your current research. The ideal topic:
- Is something you are passionate about.
- Is accessible to all group members.
- Is interesting and useful to others.
Talks do not have to be highly technical or niche. Instead, they can very well present a fundamental concept, technique, or technology that might be well-known in one field but less familiar to others in the group.
The seminar will be held physically on campus - no hybrid setting will be available for now.
External speakers are welcome. If you have a topic or a speaker in mind, please contact the seminar organizer.
