Seminars and Colloquia at <strong>FIAS</strong> in the year <strong>2010</strong><br />

The organization of common colloquia and seminars has played an inportant role <strong>for</strong> fostering an interdisciplinary<br />

spirit at <strong>FIAS</strong>. From the beginning, in the weekly “Interdisciplinary <strong>FIAS</strong> Colloquium”<br />

distinguished speakers were invited to give overview talks covering all scientific areas represented at<br />

<strong>FIAS</strong>. Since 2006 the “FIGSS Student Seminar” has been held, mainly as a plat<strong>for</strong>m <strong>for</strong> Ph.D. students<br />

to present their work. These events are addressing the ‘general public’ at <strong>FIAS</strong> and bring together<br />

the researchers and students from all scientific branches. In addition, various group seminars<br />

are held with a more focussed specialization. Their schedules are not listed in the following.<br />
