For those who are new to CIRMMT or anyone who would like a refresher on the resources available to CIRMMT Student Members and how to access them, there will be a Student Member Orientation Meeting on Monday September 19th from 6:30-8:00pm. This meeting will happen in person in room A-832. If you would like to attend, please fill out this MS form so we know how many of you to expect. Room A-832 is on the 8th floor of the Elizabeth Wirth building (527 Sherbrooke St W, Montreal, Quebec H3A 1E3), turn right as soon as you exit the elevators, and the room is at the end of the hall.
Right after the orientation meeting on September 19th (same day!), we will have the first Colloquial Colloquium (CoCo) of the academic year. CoCo is a place for CIRMMT students to hang out and share works-in-progress, mock presentations, ask for feedback or help, and/or just get to know your colleagues. The first CoCo will be all about meeting old and new faces - we will have an open session to ask questions, find out about each Research Axis, their student representative, current funding options that you might be able to access, and some of the current work being conducted. No need to prepare anything formal, if you have a presentation, idea or if you’re looking for collaborators and you would like to share with colleagues in a relaxed setting, send an e-mail (alberto.acquilino[at]mail.mcgill.ca or tommy.davis[at]mail.mcgill.ca) and we can schedule a brief presentation time. The introduction meeting will be followed by drinks, snacks, some music, and networking.
