The NERSC@50 Annual User Meeting is accessible virtually via Zoom.
In 2024, the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) marks 50 years of accelerating scientific discovery through high performance computing. NERSC’s 50th year culminates with a special expanded version of its NERSC Annual User Meeting taking place October 22–24, and you can join in virtually via a Zoom broadcast.
The meeting, titled “NERSC@50: Then, Now, and Into the Future,” will highlight the ways in which NERSC has contributed to science as well as ways in which the center is a powerhouse for current research and will continue to blaze trails in HPC for science.
A range of speakers and panelists will present on topics like the future of AI for science, integrated research infrastructure, quantum computing and other novel technologies, and a broad selection of world-changing user projects. Observing the breadth and depth of NERSC’s achievement and influence through a range of lenses, the event will also include a presentation from the California Poet Laureate on the legacy and promise of NERSC and its systems and a NERSC Science as Art Contest celebrating the beauty found in many scientific visualizations produced on NERSC systems.
