Graduate Prerequisites: consent of instructor - Colloquium is structured to serve as both a journal club and a seminar for ongoing research, tailored for graduate students. This course engages students in two key activities: the critical analysis and presentation of contemporary research papers, allowing them to deeply explore and understand the latest advancements in their respective fields; and the opportunity to present their current research, receiving insightful feedback from their peers and faculty. This setup nurtures a collaborative and supportive learning atmosphere. By employing this dual-method approach, Colloquium not only hones students' abilities to effectively articulate complex scientific concepts but also deepens their understanding of research methodologies, findings, and interpretations. This course is designed to cultivate critical thinking, enhance public speaking skills, and foster scientific discourse, all of which are integral for the academic and professional development of students in the scientific community. 2 cr, Spring sem.
