We provide a LaTeX template for speakers to use when submitting the abstract for a seminar (sample PDF output). Using this template makes it possible to post the abstract promptly and without unintended errors that might creep in if your text has to be migrated from another source.
Seminars are always open to the public! Questions about the series may be sent to seminars@stat.stanford.edu.
