This semester's AP Forums feature recipients of the APSI Summer Research Grants who conducted research relevant to East or Southeast Asia last summer. Presentations will last 20-25 minutes each with room for discussion at the end. Audience members are highly encouraged to posit questions and engage with speakers during the Q&A.

The registration link includes talks for all three forums during the semester; you may register to attend multiple forums. This specific forum features the following presenters:
