Organiser of WHPC Networking Lunch at ISC 2017: A celebration of Women in HPC
Women in High Performance Computing (WHPC) was created with the vision to encourage women to participate in the HPC community by providing fellowship, education, and support to women and the organisations that employ them. Through collaboration and networking, WHPC strives to bring together women in HPC and technical computing, encourage women to engage in outreach activities, and improve the visibility of inspirational role models. Our goal is one of inclusivity: encouraging everyone to participate and contribute to the field of HPC.
WHPC is stewarded and supported by our founding organisation, EPCC at the University of Edinburgh UK, and receives support from our Corporate Champions Intel and TACC.
