The AUDITORY SEMINARS
You are invited to the auditory seminars at the Otorhinolaryngology Department of the University Medical Center Groningen. The talks are in English. Please see the schedule below.

If you would like to sign up for the e-mail list and be updated on the upcoming talks, please contact:
Jose Lopez Santacruz, j.lopez.santacruz@umcg.nl

We gratefully acknowledge support from: Advanced Bionics, Cochlear, MedEl, Oticon and School of Behavioral and Cognitive Neurosciences, University of Groningen (RUG).

Broadcasting:
To join one of the seminars, follow the link sent in the announcements for each seminar, and click on the "Join" button. You will be asked a password, which is also sent in the announcements.

To watch the seminar you will need to install a small component on your computer (or tablet), called "WebEx Meeting Center". Although this is done automatically and only takes a few minutes, we advise you to do so some time before the beginning of the conference. To install the WebEx Meeting Center, go to http://umcg-uc.webex.com/, read and accept the terms and conditions, then go in the "Set Up" menu at the bottom left, and select "Meeting Center". Note that there is a problem with Chrome on Mac OSX. It is advised to use another browser (Safari or Firefox), but if you must absolutely use Chrome, there is a fix here: http://tinyurl.com/webex-chrome-osx. Once the component is installed, you should be able to see the seminar from any computer. Do not forget that you will need some loudspeakers or headphones. You will have the possibility to type questions in the chat area during or at the end of the talk.

On the day of the seminar, you will follow the link and use the password. Please be aware that by following this link and using this password you agree to not record the seminar and to not re-use the presented data without prior consent of the presenter.

Do not hesitate to contact Minke de Boer (minke.de.boer@rug.nl) if anything is unclear, or if you encounter any problem.
