Target audience: Researchers that are interested in getting started with MATLAB.

Learning objectives: Be able to start using MATLAB for your research and be aware of the best learning resources available.

Knowledge prerequisites: Basic Linux and some experience with a scripting language (e.g., Bash, Python, R).

Hardware/software prerequisites: Bring a laptop which can connect to the eduroam wireless network. There are two options for using MATLAB: (1) install MATLAB on your laptop (https://www.mathworks.com/academia/tah-portal/princeton-university-296492.html) or (2) register for an account on Adroit: https://bit.ly/3wicSaH (VPN required if off-campus) and use MyAdroit (https://researchcomputing.princeton.edu/support/knowledge-base/matlab).
