Seminar Series (Spring 2009)

The goal of our seminar series is to disseminate the knowledge about MIB related research at FIU, address more general issues of interest to the faculty and PhD students and ultimately increase interaction opportunities among us and the academic community and enhance the research culture. The spirit of the seminars is developmental and hence the work presented will be at various stages of completion.
