In Conversation With

In Conversation With, created by Deepesh Toshniwal and led by Marieke Kootte, is the accompanying interview series of the Numerical Analysis seminars. The goal of the interviews is to introduce the guests in an informal way and to share lessons learned during their career to current PhD students. 

In the run-up to each seminar, PhD-student Marieke Kootte interviews the guest speaker about his or her research, career, and personal life.
