• From October until December in 2013 I gave a course on Soergel bimodules and representation theory at the University of Sydney.
  
  
• In June 2013 I gave a talk at the Arbeitstagung in memory of Hirzebruch. Slides and a video is available here.
  
  
• In April and May 2013 I gave an IMPRS course "Topology of algebraic varieties and perverse sheaves".
  
  
• Here is my Oberwolfach report from the meeting "algebraic groups" in April, 2013.
  
  
• In March 2013, Ben Elias and I gave a master class on Soergel bimodules and Kazhdan-Polynomials. Videos of all lectures are here. Lecture notes are and exercises are available here.
  
  
• In Feb '13 I gave two seminar talks and a colloquium at MIT about my recent work with Ben Elias.
  
  
• In March '12 gave talks at the Oberwolfach meetings "Enveloping Algebras and Geometric Representation Theory" and "Representations of Finite Groups". My talks were related, and both reports are available here: Some applications of parity sheaves, Checking Lusztig's conjecture around the Steinberg weight.
  
  
• The week of the 27th of February, 2012 I gave a six hour lecture series on parity sheaves at the winter school Homogeneous Spaces and Geometric Representation Theory in Bochum organised by Stéphanie Cupit-Foutou and Guido Pezzini. Preliminary lecture notes are available here.

• In May 2011, I gave a four hour course called "Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials and intersection cohomology complexes on the flag variety" as part of a spring school Flag Varieties, organised by Cédric Bonnafé. Scans of the lectures and slides are available here.
  
  
• In 2011 I gave a number of talks about the p-smooth locus in a variety of locations (Jussieu, Newcastle, Aberdeen). Notes of my talk (which contain a bit more detail than the talk itself) are here. Some pictures to illustrate what is going on.
  
  
• In 2011 I have given a number of talks about generators and relations for Soergel bimodules (Chamonix, Clermont-Ferrand, BMC in Leicester, Cambridge, Sydney, Ottawa, Amherst, Jussieu). Slides are here.
