JUAMI Open Computing Facility Symposium Next Week, Invitation to Register

[Brian Iezzi]

Hello everyone,

Hope this email finds you well. I wanted to send out a reminder that the JUAMI Open Computing Facility symposium will be taking place next week, May 19-20th. We are excited to have several leaders in computational research and education in Africa joining us for a panel, including Prof. Billinge! There will also be research presentations from OCF users as well as workshops on several topics. A full schedule can be found on the symposium website.

The website also includes a link to register to receive the Zoom information for the sessions. We look forward to hopefully seeing you next week! 

Best,

Brian
