Virtual International Microwave Seminar

Download the full program here

Welcome to the website of the virtual international microwave seminar.

This is a monthly seminar comprising a 45 min talk + discussion time to provide a platform of intense, regular exchange for the microwave spectroscopy community, which hopefully partly compensates the lack of “real” meetings since the beginning of the pandemic. By having a rather "microwave-specific" seminar series, we think that we can also have really detailed, informal discussions on some specific MW aspects, which will be less possible in a broader seminar series and which will also be of use for the younger researchers.

The seminars take place normally every second Wednesday of each new month with alternating time slots to make it more accessible to people around the world. We also intend to record the talks and make it available to the public for a limited amount of time so that time-slot limitations may be somewhat overcome.

Videos of the seminars are available, if you are interested please send a request to mw-seminarATdesy.de.

For further information and requests please contact us via mw-seminarATdesy.de.
