Presentations

You may also be looking for my poster presentations, which are elsewhere.

Here are some links to slide decks from presentations that I have given, in reverse chronological order. Note that not every talk I have given is available here, so get in touch if you think something is missing. Similarly, if you spot a mistake do let me know.

2020

  • 12.10.2020 Similar to the talk last week, but a bit longer, I gave a talk to the Finnish physical sciences students [slides].
  • 6.10.2020 I gave an introductory presentation to the BSc Science students in Helsinki [slides]. There were some technical gremlins, so I recorded a video too.

  • 6.4.2020 My first online talk! I gave the first CP3-online lecture [slides].

(note that most presentations prior to this date were developed against an older version of the reveal.js library, and may have minor formatting issues)

2018

2017

[I started using reveal.js to give talks in 2017, which is why this list starts here]

Technical details

I typically use reveal.js for giving presentations, with MathJax for equations and some funny icons from Font Awesome. My personalised bare-bones presentation template can be found here.
