ANNOUNCING THE OSG USER SCHOOL 2022!

If you could access hundreds or even thousands of computers for your scholarly work or the work you support, what could you do? How could it transform your research? What discoveries might be made?

We are seeking applicants for the OSG User School 2022, from July 25-29, at the beautiful University of Wisconsin in Madison.

Participants will learn to use high throughput computing (HTC) to harness vast amounts of computing power for research, applicable to nearly any field of study.

In previous Schools, we have helped people in physics, chemistry, engineering, life sciences, earth sciences, agricultural and animal sciences, economics, social sciences, medicine, and more.

Using lectures, demonstrations, hands-on exercises, roleplays, and personal consulting with OSG experts in HTC, participants will learn how HTC systems work, how to run and manage many jobs and huge datasets, how to implement a realistic scientific computing workflow, and most importantly, how to get your own research work up and running.

Want to learn more about HTC? See, e.g., https://chtc.cs.wisc.edu/htc.html

Worried about costs? We pay all basic travel, hotel, and food costs for applicants who are selected to attend.

This is a valuable offer!

Ideal candidates are graduate students doing research and staff (e.g., facilitators, admins) supporting research that involves or could involve large-scale computing - work that cannot be done on one laptop or a handful of computers.

We also accept post-doctoral students, faculty, research staff, and advanced undergraduates, so tell us about yourself regardless of your current role!

We are planning a completely in-person event and will follow all COVID guidelines that are in effect at that time.
