The i4is Education Team are running a series of online talks for i4is members. The talks are based on the various modules we have provided for the ISU recently. The main reason for holding these talks is to give the i4is members another benefit for their support. We also see this talk series as being beneficial to our i4is colleagues and research collaborators by giving them the opportunity to present to an interested group, topics that intrigue them. We hope that you will join us.
Some of our talk are available publicly, however most are only available to members of the Initiative for Interstellar Studies. Join today!

Video recordings and slides are available for most of the talks. They can be found via the links the the schedules below. Public recordings can also be found on our YouTube channel.
