SLAC Public Lecture Series

Ever wonder what goes on at SLAC? Here is your chance to find out. The SLAC Public Lecture Series opens the doors to the inner workings of SLAC for the local nonscientific community. Find out what SLAC is all about: the research, the facilities, and the people that make this a world-class research institute. Hang around for refreshments after the talks. Physicists will be on hand to chat so bring your toughest questions to stump the professionals!

The SLAC Public Lecture Series is sponsored by the SLAC Users Organization and by SSRL.

The SLAC Public Lecture Series is normally scheduled for the last Tuesday of every other month beginning at 7:30 p.m.
