PSC40: Powering Discovery
PSC Research Symposium: Celebrating Our 40th Anniversary
Join the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center for an afternoon celebrating innovation, discovery, and the impact of advanced computing. Bringing together researchers, industry leaders, PSC founders, staff, students, and community partners, this special event will explore where we’ve been, where we are today, and where the future of computational science is headed.
The program will feature a keynote presentation from renowned scientist Dr. Chris Mason, whose work at the intersection of genomics, space biology, artificial intelligence, and data science is helping shape the future of research.
Attendees will also hear from leaders across academia, industry, and high performance computing during a forward-looking panel discussion examining emerging technologies, scientific opportunities, and the evolving role of advanced cyberinfrastructure in accelerating discovery.
Throughout the afternoon, participants will have opportunities to connect with colleagues, explore research highlights from PSC and its user community, and engage in informal networking during a reception featuring research posters and demonstrations.
Whether you’re a longtime collaborator, a member of the research community, or simply interested in the future of science and technology, we invite you to join us for this unique gathering celebrating the people, partnerships, and ideas that continue to drive innovation forward.
