ANNOUNCING THE OSG USER SCHOOL 2022!<br>
<br>
If you could access hundreds or even thousands of computers for your<br>
scholarly work or the work you support, what could you do? How could it<br>
transform your research? What discoveries might be made?<br>
<br>
We are seeking applicants for the OSG User School 2022, from July 25-29, at<br>
the beautiful University of Wisconsin in Madison. Participants will learn<br>
to use high throughput computing (HTC) to harness vast amounts of computing<br>
power for research, applicable to nearly any field of study. In previous<br>
Schools, we have helped people in physics, chemistry, engineering, life<br>
sciences, earth sciences, agricultural and animal sciences, economics,<br>
social sciences, medicine, and more.<br>
<br>
<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__opensciencegrid.org_user-2Dschool-2D2022_&d=DwMFaQ&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=1bclzxVlhTV419LkWWxwLTl3ztSqyuA_Q_Vnypx1RD4&m=6JFGztXzTWbIZBKTvuTofblDYvgNp-79l2Z5T0dcGF88jPxL5gjkksLXV4vEcvpL&s=-F6XAV-XfwiKgTAyJAEwJJDIJSYiHkEOYbTYwJxgsOY&e=" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-linkindex="1" style="margin:0px">https://opensciencegrid.org/user-school-2022/</a><br>
<br>
Using lectures, demonstrations, hands-on exercises, roleplays, and personal<br>
consulting with OSG experts in HTC, participants will learn how HTC systems<br>
work, how to run and manage many jobs and huge datasets, how to implement a<br>
realistic scientific computing workflow, and most importantly, how to get<br>
your own research work up and running.<br>
<br>
Want to learn more about HTC? See, e.g., <a href="https://chtc.cs.wisc.edu/htc.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-auth="NotApplicable" data-linkindex="2" style="margin:0px">https://chtc.cs.wisc.edu/htc.html</a><br>
<br>
Worried about costs? We pay all basic travel, hotel, and food costs for<br>
applicants who are selected to attend. This is a valuable offer!<br>
<br>
Ideal candidates are graduate students doing research and staff (e.g.,<br>
facilitators, admins) supporting research that involves or could involve<br>
large-scale computing - work that cannot be done on one laptop or a handful<br>
of computers. We also accept post-doctoral students, faculty, research<br>
staff, and advanced undergraduates, so tell us about yourself regardless of<br>
your current role!<br>
<br>
We are planning a completely in-person event and will follow all COVID<br>
guidelines that are in effect at that time.<br>
<br>
IMPORTANT DATES<br>
* Application Period (OPEN NOW): 18 March - 18 April 2022<br>
