A Limited number of scholarships will also be available to cover daily expenses such as meals.
In order to tailor the program to the topics that are most useful, we are asking everyone to fill out the short form below. The application will close April 15th, 2023 and notification of topic selection for the two week long program will be completed by May 1st to give everyone time to make travel arrangements to San Francisco.
