Participants may come from either the Biological Sciences or the Physical Sciences, but should have at least one year of calculus. Educational background may range from final-year undergraduates through graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and professional scientists from both industrial and university settings. Fifty participants can be accepted, and early applicants will be given priority. An attempt will be made to balance participants with biological and physical science backgrounds. Participants can register for individual weeks, or for the entire 3-week course.
