The Symposium

We seek to bring scientists working in HPC, and also those from disciplines that apply HPC, particularly to AI & biology, to present and discuss the latest developments in HPC that are transforming research across disciplines. A key focus will be a pedagogical touch, to cater to a number of students and early career researchers, to pique their interest. The symposium seeks to bring together about 20 leading scientists from India and abroad, and provide an opportunity for at least 100 early career researchers to participate.
