Webinar recording available – Tips for navigating your supercomputing journey

On 1 July 2025, the roles, services and technologies of New Zealand eScience Infrastructure (NeSI) were integrated into the crown-owned company, Research and Education Advanced Network New Zealand (REANNZ). Stay connected with us by visiting the REANNZ website.
 

On 01 September, 2020, NeSI kicked off a new 'Researcher Spotlight' webinar series with a panel of four researchers will shared how they navigated the ups and downs of learning high performance computing. The panelists, listed below, talked about how they first got started, what they found most challenging about the learning process, and how learning to use supercomputers changed the way they approach research.
