We’re so proud of this course: it’s a community-driven solution to an institutional problem, and we hope that it can serve as a model for other institutions and/or scientific disciplines. (6/9)

We want to recognize this course made possible due to the support of our advisors, as well as funding from @StanfordEthics and the Stanford Genetics Department, which allowed us to pay ourselves and the TAs. (7/9)
