We will convene at 6:00pm for dinner, and 7:10pm for the talk. The University Seminars Office requires the rapporteur to collect the payment for dinner ($30 per a person; checks only). If you would like to attend, please make sure to RSVP at least seven days in advance to the seminar rapporteur, Nwakego Ifedima Nwasike (nin2108@columbia.edu). It is necessary to RSVP even if you are attending the talk only, since rooms are assigned based on the expected number of attendees. We hope to see you at the talks.

Seminar Co-Chairs,

James Kim and Matthew Sandler
