In 2024, fellows will participate in three in-person conferences at Clemson University, the University of Louisville, and North Carolina State University. Fellows form project teams around topics of interest, develop a paper or other deliverable, and present their findings at the final conference in November.&nbsp;</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
