Seminars at the Division of Psychology
At the Division of Psychology, we're periodically -- usually on Wednesdays between 12:00 and 13:00 -- organizing seminars where researchers, both from our own division and elsewhere, presents their latest finding and ideas. These seminars are open for all who's interested, researchers and students alike. We also, now and then, organize internal seminars that are meant for employees at the division. Unless anything else is announced the seminars will be held in stora konferensrummet, Nobels väg 9, plan 4.
