ISC 2025

ISC 2025 will once again be returning to Hamburg in Germany for in-person and online sessions!

All of us at Women in HPC are delighted to continuing our official collaboration with the ISC High Performance conference! We will be running a number of different events and activities focused on improving diversity and inclusion in the HPC community. Watch this space for announcements, more information and how you can find us during ISC 2025. We hope to meet as many of our members, supporters and advocates as possible!

The WHPC poster session at ISC is dedicated to women and individuals from underrepresented groups who are students or are in the early stages of their HPC careers, typically within the first 5 years post-graduation or via a career transition into the field of supercomputing. For those who are chosen to present, there will be the opportunity to meet with leaders and employers from across the HPC community at this conference, giving you an opportunity to discuss your work with them.

Examples include early research and projects, reproducibility, career experiences, diversity and inclusion in HPC, and more.
