MH&B Lecture Series

Our faculty presents weekly lectures during The Graduate School's Fall, Winter, and Spring quarters every Thursday from noon to 12:50pm in the Searle Seminar Room in the Lurie building. Due to public interest, we have made these lectures open to all, inside and outside the Northwestern community. Please feel free to bring a lunch.

Beginning this year, we are recording these lectures and making them available online. These recordings are playable in iTunes and include the presentation slides in sync with the audio. More information is available here.
