Past foundation talks
The GEC Foundation Talk is a 45 min plenary presentation on a core topic of the GEC and is given by a leading member of the GEC community. The goal of this presentation is to present a general introduction to the respective field and to present selected current research results. The GEC Foundation Talk is given in odd numbered years, when the Will Allis Prize is not awarded. Speakers are nominated and selected by the GEC Executive Committee.
