» About

All talks are held in 606 Soda Hall from 1:00 to 2:00pm, preceded by lunch from 12:30pm to 1:00pm, unless otherwise specified. On this site, you will find upcoming talk announcements and abstracts from previous talks in Berkeley's database seminar. You can also receive talk announcements on our mailing list. If you are interested, please see the instructions for adding yourself to the mailing list.

Important Note: Spring Semesters are usually reserved for students talks. As these often contain only preliminary results, and are not necessarily of immediate interest to a broad audience, announcements will not be send to the mailing list during that time. Announcements will still be send on the occasion of a visiting speaker, or when the speaker wishes for the talk to be publicized to a larger audience. The seminar webpage will contain information on the current schedule even when announcements are not sent, and visitors are still welcome to attend if they wish.
