CIS Brown Bag Seminars

The CIS wishes to support social and scientific interaction and exchange between its researchers in time- and resource-efficient ways. To this end, the CIS Board finances so-called brown-bag events. The idea is that a number of CIS researchers can come together around a research theme of shared interest and meet on a regular basis to discuss that theme while enjoying a brown-bag lunch financed by the CIS.

Requirements
At least 5 CIS researchers (including PhD students and advanced MACIS students) from two or more different research groups may form a group and submit a funding application to the CIS. The group should meet regularly over the course of at least one semester.
To ensure that the group reaches its goal of jointly addressing a specific research theme, group membership obliges members to prepare properly for each meeting in a suitable way (i.e., reading the texts to be discussed, preparing feedback on the work of others, etc), as well as attendance at the group’s brown bag events (except in the case of illness etc). Group membership implies a high degree of commitment.
