Research seminar

    Presentation
    The OCS laboratory's monthly seminar cycle brings together the school's researchers and guest researchers for two presentations. Both speakers are invited to present their research or work in progress. At the end of each lecture, a collegial discussion is opened with all the researchers and teachers present. The OCS seminar aims to be a forum for discussion, sharing hypotheses and questions, and putting research into perspective.
