If you want to receive the links to the talks and coffee breaks, there are two ways. You can fill out this form. Or (maybe easier) send a blank email to zorp-join@listserv.csv.warwick.ac.uk and click the link in the email we send in reply. If you can’t send a blank email you can put any gibberish in there. If you can’t find our emails please check your spam folder. You can also see the Zoom links on our researchseminars page.

Coffee breaks and house rules

We kindly ask that you use your full name in the Zoom session and coffee meeting. While attending the coffee break, please either leave the Zoom meeting or route the Zoom audio to a pair of headphones.

A link for the coffee breaks will be posted in the Zoom meeting and sent to the mailing list.
