The 3-day summer school is intended for graduate students and postdocs who are interested in or working on computational and data science. It includes lecture series from introduction to forefront research on various topics listed below. The followed workshop will provide a platform for experts and participants to share their research and discuss new developments in this field. Participants of the summer school will also have opportunities to give a short presentation and a poster about their work during the workshop. There will be ample opportunities for all participants to communicate, interact, and connect during the summer school and workshop. Partial funding from NSF RTG is available to support a limited number of graduate student participants (US citizens and permanent residents). Participants are also encouraged to find other funding sources. 
 
The summer school  (Aug 14-16) will be held at Duke University Marine Lab right on the coast in Beaufort, NC. The workshop (Aug 17-18) will be held on Duke University campus in Durham, NC. Shuttle service  between these two sites will be provided.
