Reading Lists
Below are reading lists and computational tutorials for past courses. These courses used review articles, primers, video tutorials, and other resources to synthesize a set of readings that are accessible for an upper-level undergraduate or introductory graduate course. We welcome any suggested additions to the course reading lists.
