PEP Discussion Group

The computational seismology group informally discusses hot topics related to Earthquake Physics every 2nd week on Thursday at noon. An informal discussion  works best with a satisfied appetite, hence the abbreviation Pizza Earthquake Physics.

The idea of this group is not so much to build another seminar contending formal talks, but rather to leave room for questions and ideas of everyone !

If you are interested, you have some questions, ideas, suggestions or you just want to discuss with us, this is the perfect place and time! Please feel welcome to join in any of the meetings. We encourage others to also present and contribute to these meetings. If you have a related subject or numerical method applied to a different subject you want to share with us or if you just want to join, please contact Alice (alice dot gabriel at tomo dot ig dot erdw dot ethz dot ch).

If you want to join next time, please fill in the doodle and bring 12 Sfr if you want to eat pizza and drink juice.
