Meetup
Dr. Daniel Glaser
Everybody is building something but many of us make our projects in a bubble. The Meet up is an opportunity for people from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds to compare notes and look for synergies. All problems are more interesting when viewed from more than one perspective and we will use a variety of techniques and tactics to help people imagine and develop interdisciplinary projects of all kinds. This will be light touch, engaging and enjoyable. No preparation required.
Please register for the meeting at this link by November 1, 2025.
The number of participants is limited, and attendance is subject to receiving a confirmation email.
Friday | Nov 14 | 12:00-15:00
Location: Tel Aviv University
