Lectures on Numerical Relativity and Strong Field Dynamics.
Why, how, challenges. Status of two-body problem, beyond vacuum General Relativity, and requirements for future detectors.
Lecturer: Katy Clough (Queen Mary University of London)

Lectures on Self-force and Astrophysics. Black hole perturbation scheme, self-force in electromagnetic and gravitational-wave science, environments.
Lecturer: Beatrice Bonga (Radboud University)*

Lectures on Gravitational-Wave Science. how is gravitational-wave data analyzed? how do we find signals? what are current/upcoming main challenges? Have we seen strong-field effects? How to test astrophysical environments and extensions of General Relativity?
Lecturer: Aditya Vijaykumar (University of Chicago)
