Internal Seminar Series [MA] Is the steam getting out of ISS? Hard to get speakers. Recall our conclusions from Aug 2010: ISS should continue to be mandatory. Have a couple of presentations per year that talk about visions. Continue to introduce new ACCESS members through the series. It is important that the series remain innovative with new features every year. Suggest that Joakim Jaldén be chairperson of ISS, responsible for creative development of the series. Book smaller lecture hall.
