Organized by MPA Division, LANL Institutes and LANL Student Association
Our summer lecture series is open to all Los Alamos National Laboratory badge holders and is specifically designed to allow new students, postdoctoral researchers and staffs meet the best and brightest among LANL scientists. In the course of 18 talks and site visits participants will have a unique chance to see the facilities and learn about LANL directly from our top scientist. Refreshments will be served. We look forward to meeting you there!
