A moderator collects audience questions in the Zoom chat. The audience will be muted. The moderator will relay clarification questions or unmute selectively during the talk. Remaining questions will be collected and asked in the moderated discussion.
The seminar will be recorded (subject to the speaker's preferences) so that participants asking question would also appear in the recording. All recorded videos can be viewed on YouTube.
