<http://www.nimbios.org/workshops/WS_hpc>," to be held May 13-15, 2019,
at NIMBioS.
*Objectives:* This 2 1/2 day workshop showcases important scientific
research using big data and high performance computing and will feature
new developments in high performance computing. A main goal is to
facilitate new collaborations. The workshop will include several invited
research talks, a poster session, breakout discussion sessions and a
panel discussion. Applicants with research in a variety of scientific
areas, ranging from biology to climate and to biomedical engineering,
are encouraged to apply, including faculty, postdocs and advanced
graduate students. Apply to present your work in our poster session!
