Training and Events

From hands-on workshops to interactive webinars, we host a variety of events designed to educate our users on the tools, systems, and frameworks that are available to accelerate their scientific computing projects.

Aurora Learning Paths

This hands-on learning series will explore the use of oneAPI and Data Parallel C++ (DPC++), Intel’s open source implementation of SYCL, to demonstrate methods to achieve performant, portable code across five different platforms available on the Intel Devcloud.
Aurora Learning Paths

Chemical Imaging: Microscopy, without Labels, Powered by AI

  • Rohit Bhargava, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Alterations of the nanoscale structure of live HeLa cells after chemical fixation, as observed using partial wave spectroscopic (PWS) optical microscopy.  Chemical fixation appears to alter the cellular nanoscale structure in addition to terminating its macromolecular remodeling.  These changes could not be detected using traditional modes of optical microscopy, being far smaller than the diffraction limit of visible light.
