Journal club papers

A detailed description of the journal club activity is included in the course rules.

Please submit your preferences regarding these papers using this form until Wednesday Oct. 18, 2023, 22:00. In the form, include numbers of three papers from this list in the order of preference.

• Students from the same study program will typically not be in the same group.
• Preferences submitted earlier will be considered with higher preference.
• All links to papers should work in our University network (e.g. Eduroam or proxy)
• Also please indicate if you are willing to work in a group with English-speaking students (this means group discussions and final report in English)
