For many years, CEFISES has hosted a weekly seminar series. Each year, our members organize a number of seminar topics, which bring together speakers from both our local community and across the world. The format encourages both long presentations and extensive discussion (one hour of talk and one hour of question-and-answer period).
If the speakers agree and there aren’t any technical glitches, we broadcast all of our talks online via YouTube Live! Links to YouTube will appear on the pages for each talk on our event calendar.
Seminar Topics and Talks, 2026–27
This list is updated regularly with links to video recordings of past talks, if available. For the most up-to-date information on upcoming sessions, please check the calendar.
