Workshop program:

This year's workshop will feature 11 presentations of undergraduate students about their summer research. Below is the preliminary schedule. Lunch and continental breakfast will be provided.

Every presentation should be less than 15min (ie between 13-14 min) to leave a litte bit of time after the presentation for a question or two, and for the next speaker to set up.
