• Co-Organizers: Lukas Luft, Michael Krawez, Tim Caselitz, Oier Mees, Noha Radwan, Federico Boniardi, Johannes Meyer, Niklas Wetzel, Wera Winterhalter, Freya Fleckenstein
• Students are requested to write a two-page abstract, prepare a talk of 20 minutes and to write a summary. Everything can be done in English or German.
• The two-page abstract is due on January 11., 2019.
• The Proseminar will be held as a "Blockseminar" on February 12., 2019, 10:00-16:00 in building 080, room 00.021. The slides should be discussed with the supervisor two weeks before the presentation.
