Host Lab Responsibilities

The host lab serves as the liaison between the EBIO department and the seminar speaker. The host lab must remain in contact with the speaker in the months and weeks leading up to the talk. All information for the speaker shall be communicated by way of the host lab and not directly from the colloquium committee. For a checklist of all duties and responsibilities for hosting an invited speaker,听please . For a checklist for hosting a graduate student Exit Talk, please . Small or new labs may contact colloquium chairs for help recruiting volunteers.听

UPDATED: 鈥�

惭辞诲补濒颈迟测:听In-person colloquia will be permitted for local and on-campus speakers. For the purposes of colloquium, 鈥榣ocal鈥� is defined as an individual who permanently or temporarily resides within (reasonable) driving distance of 麻豆影院. This may thus be speakers from other departments, EBIO graduate students, or any speaker who independently plans to be in 麻豆影院 (e.g., for a conference, meeting, vacation, etc.). Colloquia will be online/remote for any speaker who is not local. Online/remote colloquia are also an option for any local speaker (i.e., local speakers are not required to speak in person).

Please note that due to the hybrid structure of the seminar series in Fall 2021, host labs are asked to co-host and manage Zoom meetings for the听Seminar and Grad Hour. The Colloquium Committee will provide Zoom meeting IDs/links and passwords for the Seminar. The hosting lab is responsible for the Zoom meetings and links for Grad Hour and Small Group meetings.听Please ensure these links are available on your speaker鈥檚 meeting schedule.听The colloquium committee will provide support in the form of a Zoom Hosting Guide ()听and optional Zoom tech support meetings.听

If your speaker cancels, please let the EBIO colloquium committee (ebio-colloquium@colorado.EDU) know ASAP. In the event of a cancellation, the hosting lab is NOT allowed to invite a replacement speaker. The colloquium committee already has a ranked back-up list (determined through graduate student votes) from which we will draw the replacement.
