There were lots of very interesting talks, and I hope to give a flavour of some of the issues that were mentioned over the course of the meeting. The list of participants and the programme outline are on the Durham website, however I do not expect the slides of the talks to be uploaded except perhaps by individual speakers. https://www.ianhuston.net/2010/02/next-uk-cosmo-meeting/ Mon, 15 Feb 2010 16:58:46 +0100 https://www.ianhuston.net/2010/02/next-uk-cosmo-meeting/ The next UK Cosmology meeting is taking place in Lancaster on the 24th February. These meetings provide an opportunity to find out what other cosmologists around the country are doing and to establish and cement working relationships. The deadline for registering your interest in attending or giving a talk is tomorrow the 16th. Funding is being provided for travel costs and PhD students and postdocs are especially encouraged to apply to speak. https://www.ianhuston.net/2007/07/post-talk-and-pre-trip/ Wed, 04 Jul 2007 17:21:13 +0100 https://www.ianhuston.net/2007/07/post-talk-and-pre-trip/ My talk in Portsmouth was on Tuesday of last week, and with the exception of a bit of trouble with the train on the way down, it seemed to go well enough. I didn’t run wildly over time or commit any other glaring mistakes, but did get a bit of a grilling in the question session. I suppose I need some practice on how to deal with problem questions, in which an answer can’t or shouldn’t be attempted in a short space of time. https://www.ianhuston.net/2007/06/first-talk-imminent/ Wed, 20 Jun 2007 16:41:09 +0100 https://www.ianhuston.net/2007/06/first-talk-imminent/ So it turns out that I am going to give a talk at UK Cosmo next week. It’s only supposed to be 18 minutes long, which you might imagine wouldn’t be that difficult to put together, but as you can tell from the lack of posts here recently, I’ve been having some problems. The talk is supposed to be based on our last paper (which will soon appear in JCAP by the way), but with limited time I think I will have to speed through it pretty quickly.
