COSMOS Share

Through the COSMOS Share, members of the COSMOS community can share their research and help each other through constructive feedback. The format is simple: one hour of informal, rigorous academic discussion, two times a month. About  ten days before the meeting COSMOS Share presenters should send to Andrea Pirro and Lorenzo Cini (the COSMOS Share organizers) a draft of the document they will discuss, so that he can share it with those interested in reading it and attending the session.
