Probability Seminar
The Probability Seminars are held in Sequoia Hall, Room 200, at 4:30pm on Mondays. Refreshments are served at 4pm in the Lounge on the first floor.

We provide a LaTeX template for speakers to use when submitting the abstract for a seminar (sample PDF output here). Using this template makes it straightforward for us to post the details of the talk promptly and without unintended errors that might creep in if we were to transcribe the abstract from another source.
Inquiries regarding Seminars may be sent to seminars@stat.stanford.edu.
