 ing\, and ending the threats created by nuclear weapons and emerging techn
 ologies.\n		The School includes talks by leading disarmament scientists an
 d global security policy experts. It provides skills and insights for part
 icipants for their research\, encourages investigation of new ideas for a 
 safer\, more peaceful\, and just world\, and fosters a broader research co
 mmunity. Organized by the Princeton Program on Science and Global Security
  (SGS)\, the School is being held together with ICTP for the first time.\n
 		 \n	\n		All participants must give a technical talk on issues related t
 o nuclear weapons or emerging technologies in the context of global securi
