The following are presentations given by the Massive Star Group or their collaborators, that cover topics of particular interest to the group. Note that many of the presentations originally incorporated movies, but due to the limitations of the PowerPoint format the 'link' between the presentation and its contained movies is difficult to maintain. In some cases, a gzipped tar archive (tar.gz) containing the presentation plus movies is available. Otherwise, if you wish to obtain the movies, you might want to contact the author.
