Inhalt
The seminar will start with one introductory lecture. Starting from the second week, participating students will start reviewing, presenting, and discussing research papers. Two papers will be discussed each week. Each student must choose a paper from a given list, prepare and give a (short) presentation on the paper's topic, and lead the follow-up discussion. In addition, all students submit one (short) review for the two papers presented every week in-class.
During the last weeks of the seminar, students will work on a small group project, which consists in trying to replicate one experiment (freely chosen) from the research papers discussed in the seminar.
Students will be evaluated based on their reviews, their presentation, their leadership of and participation in the paper discussions, as well as their group project.
