On October the 4th, 2023, from 2pm to 5pm, we attended the Postgraduate Research (PGR) meetup and networking as part of the PGR Induction Week. This exhibition was held at the Library building at Mile End. Some members of our HPC team and the Researcher Liaison team had the opportunity to explain the benefits of our HPC cluster at QMUL, Apocrita.
Dr. Dharani Yarrakalva is a researcher with more than 28 publications related to epidemiology. She has experience using Cambridge clusters, and she is currently an Academic General Practitioner and NIHR Clinical Lecturer at Queen Mary University of London. She was receiving one-to-one HPC sessions to use the Apocrita cluster at QMUL, properly.
A virtual workshop was delivered for training on High Performance Computing (HPC) on Friday 14, July 2023 and on Friday 21 July 2023. We held the online event for 13 researchers from the School of Business and Management (SBM). Thanks to the coordination of Professor Roxana Gutierrez and to the support of Tom King, Simon Butcher and Vitaly Kukchenkov, we covered the basics of HPC skills including applying for an HPC account, launching an HPC job, applications of SBM and how to request GPUs.
