The UTIG Seminar Series is a forum for cutting-edge earth and planetary sciences attended by scientists, postdoctoral researchers, and graduate students at the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics and the wider UT Jackson School of Geosciences. Every semester, we invite leading scientists around the U.S. and beyond to present results from their recent research projects. See our Events Calendar for upcoming talks. Past talks are posted below and on our YouTube playlist. Questions? Contact social@ig.utexas.edu.
