CALF SEMINAR 
Calf is the junior COW.
The organisers are Jake Patel (Warwick), Peter Spacek (Kent), and
Christopher Seaman (Cardiff), and local organisers include Alice Cuzzucoli
(Warwick), Ben Morley (Cambridge), and Karoline Van Gemst (Birmingham). Calf
announcements are made using the COW
mailing list. If you would like to get involved in the organisation, or
suggest your institution as the next venue, please contact any of the people
above.
The COW seminar has some funds for travel expenses, and
information on how to claim a reimbursement can be found on the official COW
webpage.
