We're off to a great start for the Fall programming season! October 16th's workshop, "The Frugal Researcher," and October 19th's Research Basics Bootcamp were both well attended. As I type this, James Cheng is winding up what is doubtless an excellent and informative Data Analytics 101 workshop at Massachusetts General Hospital. The Programming Committee has even more great events in store. To register for upcoming events, visit our
