Seminars of the Department of Botany
Winter semester 2020-21
Due to continuing quarantine regulations (and perhaps more expected to come) the department seminar will be in a hybrid mode.
Speakers will be either online or physically present in the Krajinovka; this will be decided dynamically before each seminar. I expect presenting students to show up in Krajinovka physically (regulations permitting).
Audience: Department members are welcome to physical attendance (under proper distancing & face mask rules effective at the time of the seminar). There is a Google Meet link which everybody is welcome to join in order to take part in the discussions. The rules for physical attendance may be changing; please keep checking the regulations. NB. We expect all master and PhD students to take part (online)!
The Google Meet link is meet.google.com/sit-ytpn-ojv. (This may change later.)
