Now in its 11th year, the Delirium Boot Camp is open to researchers from a variety of backgrounds, professions and research areas. However, there are a limited number of spots available each year and the application process is selective.
This year's Boot Camp will take place at The Rizzo Conference Center at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, NC from Sunday, October 29 to Tuesday, October 31, 2023.
Applications are now open and will be accepted until July 10, 2023, 5pm EDT. Sorry, but due to limited capacity and the advanced preparation required for participants and faculty, we cannot accept late applications.
