DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Gonzalo Herrera (Harvard)\, Molly Neylan (Harvard Un
 iversity)\, Will Thompson (Harvard University)\, Carlos Argüelles (Harvar
 d University)\, Nicholas Kamp\n\nThe Cosmic Neutrino Practicum  (CNP) is 
 a summer school that focuses on teaching graduate students core skills to 
 do research in astroparticle physics. The summer school will take place at
  Harvard University\, located in Cambridge\, MA.\n\nThe three core lecture
 s of the Practicum will be:\n\n\n	Neutrino Telescope Basics\, Data Analysi
 s\, and Current Measurements (Aswathi Balagopal)\n	Neutrino Interactions\,
  Simulation and Event Generation (Nick Kamp)\n	Reconstruction and Machine 
 Learning (Thorsten Glüesenkamp)\n\n\nThese core lectures will be suppleme
 nted with additional topical lectures\n\n\n	Neutrino Detectors (Will Thomp
 son)\n	Beyond the Standard Model Physics with High-Energy Neutrinos (Qinru
 i Liu)\n	Neutrino Source Modeling (Mainak Mukhopadhyay)\n	Beyond the Stand
 ard Model Physics with Neutrino Sources (Gonzalo Herrera)\n	Diffuse Astrop
 hysical Neutrinos (Vedant Basu)\n	Neutrino Source Searches (Sarah Mancina)
 \n	Atmospheric Neutrino Oscillation Measurements (Kayla Leonard DeHolton)
  \n\n\n \n\nThe Practicum will provide a complete introduction to high-e
 nergy neutrino astrophysics. The summer school is aimed at both students w
 orking on theory or experiment. Students are also expected to give a 2-3 
 minute single-slide presentation on their own research on Tuesday afterno
 on\, and are warmly encouraged (but not required) to bring an accompanying
  poster that will be on display throughout the Practicum.\n\nThe lecturers
  have been chosen to be early-career researchers in the field that have gr
 eat first-hand experience on the topics of the summer school. This worksho
 p serves a dual purpose: to both train the next-generation of astrophysica
 l neutrino hunters and to also develop new pedagogical techniques for grad
 uate education. Lecturers of this Practicum will receive special training
  from researchers in physics education to produce the best lectures possib
 le. \n\nThrough the generous support of the Heising-Simons Foundation\, 
 a limited number of complete fellowships are available for participants o
 f the Practicum.\n\nTo participate in the Practicum please submit your ap
 plication through this website by May 1st. This deadline also applies to 
 applications requesting financial support.\n\nThis Practicum offers financ
 ial supports for a limited number students (lodging\, travel or stipend). 
 Please let us know in the registration form\, and whenever appropriate\, a
 sk your advisor to discuss this aspect in their recommendation letter.\n\n
 We look forward to seeing you in CNP-2026!\n\nWe also highlight our sister
  event\, the International Summer School on Neutrinos (https://indico.glob
 al/event/16507/program)\, which offers a broad overview of neutrino physic
 s and complements the hands-on focus of this program.\n\n \n\nFinally\, p
 lease note that we have a remote Zoom option for the CNP:\n\nLink: https:
