Lectures revolve around one main discussion paper (presented by a student) and then some overview of other papers in the literature by me. The focus is on current research areas for students thinking about PhD topics, rather than a comprehensive span of the literature. The topics for each class are chosen jointly by my and the class, so will vary somewhat year by year. Aimed at 2nd+ year graduates. Topics also include research skills, tips and tricks, refereeing and presentation skills.
