Einstein Telescope (preliminary title)

Our secretariat will send invites for these lectures, and everyone 
interested is more than welcome to attend them.

In addition, the candidates will be available to meet with the PIs of 
N&S (and of other departments) to discuss possible research synergies. 
If you would like to talk to any of the five ME UD candidates, please 
contact Gerhard Raven and Andrea Baldi who will be acting as contact 
points for this.

Best,

Juan

PD I will also post this to Teams, but I am not sure everyone is 
checking it regularly.
