Sabbatical
In the Fall semester 2018, I have a sabbatical semester. This means that I do not teach courses or engage in teaching administration. I will continue to work in student advising and research.
The purpose of the sabbatical is for me to write grant applications to I can help fund our research group, and to travel to see collaborators to enhance our scientific work.
How you can get to talk to me
I will hold office hours as usual (see: Sebastian Springer's contact details and office hours). For the office hours, you need no appointments, just show up.
Occasionally, I will need to move my office hours. If that is the case, you will find a note on my door.
