Connectionists: High performance computing workshop at SFN 2017

[Ted Carnevale]

Seats are still available in the workshop

Using the Neuroscience Gateway Portal (NSG) for Parallel Simulations
Saturday, Nov. 11 from 9 AM to noon

which we are presenting in downtown Washington, DC as a satellite
to this year's SFN meeting.  NSG eliminates most technical and
adminstrative barriers to using high performance computing resources,
and even gives away free CPU time on parallel supercomputers.  Software
currently installed on NSG includes BluePyOpt, Brian, CARLsim,
Freesurfer, GENESIS, MATLAB, MOOSE, NEST, NEURON, PyNN, and the
Virtual Personalized Multimodal Connectome Pipeline.

At this workshop you will learn how to use this NSF-supported resource
in your computationally-intensive modeling and data analysis projects.
You will also hear presentations from several research teams about how
they are using NSG in their own research.

The registration deadline is Friday Oct. 28.
