The goal of this one-week Technical Education Program was to provide trainees (PhD or MD students and postdoctoral fellows) with lectures, hands-on laboratory experience, introduction to novel technologies and emerging themes, and informal interactions with internationally-renowned researchers. Held from 21-25 July 2014 primarily on the campus of Carnegie Mellon University, it was organized by Dr. Cameron Riviere and Dr. Howie Choset.
