The members of the Institute, and in particular all students and postdocs, meet every Friday from 14:00-15:00 in the 2nd Floor Coffee Room, to discuss interesting recent science papers and exciting new astrophysics discoveries, while having free, slightly unhealthy, food. Please contact Maria Kopsacheili or Raphael Skalidis to lead a discussion. The schedule for the coming weeks follows:
