Archive of Colorado Scientific Society Talks Indexed by Speaker, Date, and Title
- Click on the date (Year and Month) in a row to open to the abstract, speaker biography, and images.
After the spring of 2020, the archive usually includes a recording of the Zoom meeting. - Search: You can search the table for a speaker’s name or part of the title of a talk. Use the Search box on the right, above the column header. Search ignores case.
- Sort: You can sort the list using any column in either ascending or descending order. Click on the column header to re-sort the list by that column’s values, toggling between ascending and descending order. The list is currently sorted by date, with the most recent talks first.
Note: This is a partial index, including abstracts of all talks from 2008 through the present and some others going back to 1995. Additional talks will be added as time permits.
For talks after June 2020 we usually have a link to a recording of the entire meeting on Zoom.
