We have published a preliminary schedule of lectures with a breakdown of topics and readings. Note that in almost all weeks lectures will be complemented with two hours of laboratory work, where we combine interactive instruction with hands-on implementation exercises. The first such session is on Monday, September 8. We will add laboratory entries to the schedule as we go along, but by default there will be one every Monday (from 14:15 to 16:00) between September 8 and November 24.
