The HALBI Group
The Half-Baked Ideas (HALBI) Group meets bi-weekly to discuss the current research of its members. There is no formal presentation as all participants will have read the paper prior to the meeting. The financial state of UC being what it is, participants should bring their own lunch. Please contact me if you need more information.
