Members of underrepresented groups often lack access to role models within their minority. The HPC community is still predominantly male, making it difficult for young women to find female “superheroes” to identify with. Such role models are crucial for career planning and guidance. This session aims to provide especially women with the opportunity to meet influential, well-recognized female HPC “superheroes” from academia, research labs, HPC centers and industry. Join us to be inspired and find relatable role models as we work together to build a more inclusive and connected HPC community.
We are pleased to announce that this is the sixth iteration of the Super(computing) Heroes, held in conjunction with the WHPC worshop at SC26. Come along and support our women in HPC super(computing) heroes!
Target Audience:
Students, early-career researchers, and professionals, as well as educators, mentors, and community builders interested in diversity and inclusion. The BoF also targets decision-makers from academia, research labs, HPC centers, and industry seeking visible role models and inclusive practices.
