Hi Folks:
I am a psychopharmacologist and wants to make a career switch into computer sc
ience (more specifically into artificial intelligence).  To be more precise, I
 am interested in doing research in this area.

However, even though I have a lot of experience with micros (commercial progra
ms and some procedural languages), I don't have any formal training in compute
r sciences.

I would appreciate if you could help me with laying out my options for career
change.  Thanks a lot!
