UPDATE 2020-03-14

Due to concerns about the coronavirus outbreak, the RMS Short Course will not be held on the Vanderbilt Campus in 2020. Instead RMS will be held as a virtual course on the originally scheduled dates in May (see below). This will be a very interactive web course using Zoom with reduced registration fees. With reduced fees and no travel/hotel costs this year, the course will cost much less than previous years. Registration is expected to open on March 21.
