<p>Regarding the research/internship question, these are the ones I know around the Bay Area:</p>
<p>Lawrence Berkeley Labs: <a href=“http://csee.lbl.gov/hssrpp.html[/url]”>http://csee.lbl.gov/hssrpp.html</a></p>
<p>Stanford: <a href=“http://ccis.stanford.edu/intern_program.html[/url]”>http://ccis.stanford.edu/intern_program.html</a></p>
<p>I believe there’s also one at Children’s Hospital in Oakland, but I don’t have the website for it.</p>
