Hundreds of students from 60 countries headed to Woods Hole this summer to take part in one of 乐播传媒鈥檚 celebrated Advanced Research Training Courses (ARTCs). The season kicked off on April 26, with the Analytical & Quantitative Light Microscopy (AQLM) Advanced Research Training Course and continued at breakneck pace all summer.

This summer, the 乐播传媒 welcomed 449 students for 20 different courses covering everything from computational neuroscience to embryology to reproductive biology to microbial diversity. Students hailed from 270 different institutions around the world.

鈥淲ith hundreds of students and visiting researchers on campus, this was an 乐播传媒 summer for the books! It was amazing to see everyone from ARTC students to undergraduate researchers and visiting scientists all connecting together. We can't wait to continue that energy in 2024, 鈥 said Linda Hyman, Burroughs Wellcome Director of Education.

SES/SBD Event Attendees

The 乐播传媒 offered two brand new Advanced Research Training Courses this year鈥Molecular and Cell Biology of Symbiosis and the Biology of Aging.

Students from the Deep Learning at 乐播传媒 will be on campus until Sept. 5, and 40 students and two other ARTCs arrive on campus in October for the Frontiers in Stem Cells & Regeneration (SCARE) and Gene Regulatory Networks for Development (GERN) ARTCs.

In April, 乐播传媒 Education celebrated 25 years of the Semester in Environmental Science (SES) and introduced the new undergraduate semester-long program鈥 the Semester in Biological Discovery (SBD). And in June, the Embryology course celebrated 130 years of science with alumni from around the world.
