The workshop webpage is here: http://www.oscer.ou.edu/virtualresidency2023/ --- SUMMARY: Virtual Residency 2023 Summer Workshop on INTRODUCTORY Research Computing Facilitation Mon June 26 (morning) - Fri June 30 (midday) 2023 Remote via Zoom only Registration: https://ousurvey.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b2ubMllAsdjUQvk Contact: Henry Neeman ([log in to unmask]) http://www.oscer.ou.edu/virtualresidency2023/ There's NO PREREQUISITE other than an interest in helping researchers with their computing-intensive/data-intensive research. (Participation in any previous Virtual Residency workshop is ***NOT*** REQUIRED.) Please feel free to forward this to anyone who may be interested and appropriate. DETAILS: Does your institution have lots of researchers and educators who want to use advanced computing, but need some help learning how? You or someone at your institution can learn to be more effective at helping researchers and educators use research computing! This is a great way to get better at a career in helping researchers use research computing. It's also a great way to meet a community of fellow research computing facilitators. --- The Virtual Residency Program has already served: 1300+ people from 440+ institutions in all 50 US states and 4 US territories plus 16 other countries on 6 continents, including: * 67 Minority Serving Institutions (15% of VRP institutions, 18% of 4+ year MSIs, 10% of all MSIs); * 123 non-PhD-granting institutions, including 4 community colleges and 3 high schools (27% of VRP institutions); * 118 institutions in all 28 EPSCoR jurisdictions (27% of VRP institutions); * 281 of 353 Campus Champion institutions (67% of VRP institutions, 80% of Campus Champion institutions). And, 78% of VRP institutions have had participants who collectively have participated in VRP activities multiple times, and 67% of VRP institutions have had participants who collectively have participated in multiple types of VRP activities. Taking into account institutions already served by the Virtual Residency and institutions that are scheduled to be served by this coming summer's workshop: * in the latest Carnegie Classification ratings: -- 138 of 146 (95%) of R1 institutions (Carnegie Very High Research Activity), -- 82 of 133 (62%) of R2 institutions (Carnegie High Research Activity), including 52 of 71 R2 institutions (73%) that have centralized on-campus research computing resources; * in the latest US News rankings of national universities (some percentages are based on multi-way ties): -- all institutions in the US News Top 25; -- all but 1 institution in the US News Top 50 (98% of US News Top 50 institutions); -- 91 institutions in the US News Top 100 (88% of US News Top 100 institutions, because of ties); -- 122 institutions in the US News Top 150 (81% of US News Top 150 institutions); -- 150 institutions in the US News Top 200 (75% of US News Top 200 institutions); -- 198 institutions in the US News Top 300 (63% of US News Top 300 institutions, because of ties). (This takes into account all of the Virtual Residency activities: workshops in 2015-22, a couple of mini-workshops run separately by the U California system, the Virtual Residency workshop planning calls, the Grant Proposal Writing Apprenticeship, the Paper Writing Apprenticeship, the Grant Running Apprenticeship, and preregistrations for the 2023 workshop.) Clarifying, since this question has come up in the past: You *DON'T* have to participated in ANY past Virtual Residency event (including this year's workshop planning calls), NOR in Campus Champions NOR Campus Research Computing Consortium (CaRCC) efforts, in order to participate in the 2023 Virtual Residency workshop -- though of course everyone in those groups are encouraged to participate! --- *TENTATIVE* TOPIC LIST http://www.oscer.ou.edu/virtualresidency2023/ "Virtual Residency Introductory Workshop 2023 Overview" "Effective Communication: How to Talk to Researchers About Their Research" "Faculty: Tenure, Promotion, Reward System" "Cyberinfrastructure User Support" "The Cyberinfrastructure Landscape: Systems, Service Providers, Technologies" "How to Do an Intake Interview" / "Intake Interview Demonstrations" "Components and Design of a High Performance Computing Cluster" "Research Networking Overview" "CyberAmbassadors: Let's Talk: Communicating That There's a Problem" "How to Do an Intake Interview" / "Intake Interviews with Real Researchers" "Deploying Community Codes" "Debugging, Profiling, Tuning and Scientific Libraries" "The Cyberinfrastrucure Landscape: Organizations" "CyberAmbassadors: Leading the Change: Equity and Inclusion; Leading with Principles: Ethics" "Collaboration Between CI Facilitators and Research Data Librarians" "Facilitating for Non-traditional Disciplines" "Research Data Management" "Stories from the Trenches"
