The program name is "Summer School in Computational Physiology, 2017," and is joint hosted by the Simula Research Laboratory, University of Oslo, and The University of California San Diego. The course is broken into two sections, the first (June 18-July 1) at the Simula Research Lab in Oslo, and the second (August 6-16) in California at UCSD. The first few days of the program will be intensive coursework in fundamentals of mathematical modeling. The remainder of the time will be spent with a supervisor from the Simula Research Lab developing mathematical models to predict the behavior of excitable tissues (My specific focus area will be modeling cardiac tissue). During the intermission between the Oslo portion of the program and the San Diego portion of the program teams will tele-communicate to continue their work on model development. The second portion of the program, in San Diego, will be a time to present the models groups have developed. 

Expenses: Flight (Round trip Charlotte, NC to Oslo, Norway) - $1750, Transportation from Oslo airport to Simula Research Laboratory and back - $100 Dinner in Oslo nightly (14 days) - $140, Flight (Round trip Charlotte, NC to San Diego, Ca) - $450, Transportation from San Diego Airport to UCSD and back - $60.

Approximate program cost - $2500
Simula Research Lab is providing a travel grant that will cover ~$1500.
