Advice for Newcomers

Experimenters unfamiliar with GENI are encouraged to to attend tutorials, which will present an introduction to GENI concepts and selected GENI resources. In addition, the two Newcomer's Breakfasts will provide an informal opportunity to discuss your plans and questions with GENI project office staff and other newcomers. If you are starting design or development of your experiment, you may want to participate in either the Wednesday afternoon Experimenter Drop-in Help Session or the Thursday afternoon Coding Sprint, Experimenter Tutoring, and Operations GENI Hands-On session, where you can get hands-on assistance from GENI developers.

Travel Grants

A limited number of travel grants are available. Please see travel grant application instructions.
