Participants welcome at individual sessions (series)

Rediscover the wonder and curiosity that led to you to MIT! During IAP'01 you'll have seven opportunities to see into the future of everything from biotechnology and computing to urban planning and music! This series is brought to you by expert young faculty who will talk about their interdisciplinary research and share their vision of where their fields will go in the next 30 years. Each forum will be immediately followed by a reception and then dinner with the faculty presenter. Students dine for free! Don't miss this chance to catch the sparks that will ignite the future! Keep checking the IAP web page for new and updated information on the Spark Forums.
