STAMP
STAMP is a cross-disciplinary student seminar which launched in August 2022 to bring together PG students working in theoretical and mathematical physics in Edinburgh. It seeks to repair links between the different research groups which were broken during the Covid pandemic, forge new ones, and give PG students a friendly environment to share their research and hear about what their peers are working on.
STAMP is primary aimed at PhD students in EMPG (University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt) and the Higgs Centre, but we welcome any students and junior researchers who wish to join us.
The seminars take place at 4pm every Thursday and the locations currently alternates between the Bayes Centre on the central UoE campus and the Higgs Centre, on the 4th floor of the JCMB, on the Kings Buildings campus. As of February 2023, STAMP is hybrid, with Zoom links shared via the mailing list.
The STAMP organisers are grateful for the funding they have recieved from the Higgs Centre and from the School of Mathematics at University of Edinburgh.
STAMP is currently organised by Andrew Beckett, Linden Disney-Hogg and Conor Elrick.
You can sign up to our mailing list by following the instructions here. (You may need to enable pop-ups for this link to work.)
You can also join our Slack workspace where we post the talk schedule and share slides, notes etc.
