HPCNow! has announced that Aleksandra Kowalczuk has been awarded a travel fellowship to present her research at the annual HPC Knowledge Portal Meeting (HPCKP24). Scheduled for May 8-9, 2024, in Barcelona, Spain, this premier event is a focal point for global experts in High Performance Computing.
HPC Knowledge Portal promotes new initiatives and partnerships in the fields of HPC, AI, and Quantum Science. It fosters effective communication and interaction among leading figures in the HPC community.
Aleksandra earned this opportunity through a rigorous selection process conducted in partnership with Women in HPC (WHPC). The process was highly competitive, with the HPCKP volunteer team having the final say over the award submissions, selecting Aleksandra as this year’s travel fellow.
Holding a biotechnology degree with a focus on Bioinformatics and a master’s in Computer Science specializing in Systems Software, Aleksandra is currently advancing her studies in Computational Engineering at the University of Warsaw’s Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling. Professionally, she serves as a cyber security analyst with a focus on data protection, digital identity management, and cloud security. She also teaches programming, data analysis, and software design as an External Lecturer at a private university.
