Mind Bytes is a celebration of scholarship and research computing. It is a unique event that brings together faculty, staff, and students from every corner of the University who share an interest in high-end computing, data, scientific visualization, and the use of computation and data to advance what is considered state-of-the-art in their fields. The theme for discussion for this year’s event is Computing, Data, and Beyond: Impact on Our World.
