We are taking a summer break. New episodes will continue on September 17th, 2025.
+++++
In this podcast we talk about all things supercomputers.
- What are supercomputers used for and why are they crucial for research and development?
- What new technologies are there on the horizon?
- What’s the connection between AI and supercomputing?
In our episodes we are interviewing guests from all around Europe who are going to talk about their work and hopefully clear misconceptions in multiple fields such as life science, machine learning, engineering, data science, quantum computing and more.
