OSC hosts the Research Symposium each spring to encourage the research computing community to share their experiences using HPC to advance research and education in a variety of disciplines.
The event allows participants to:
• Present posters and give short talks
• Learn about new developments in HPC
• Discuss outcomes of research and educational initiatives
• Connect with others in the HPC community
• Meet potential collaborators
• Provide valuable feedback to OSC staff
Faculty, staff and students from colleges, universities, research organizations and companies across Ohio and beyond are invited to attend in person or virtually.

The OSC Community
The success of the Ohio Supercomputer Center and, in turn, our community depends upon the participation of Ohio's researchers. Anyone who utilizes OSC resources and services is a part of the OSC community and can engage in the community by:
- advising on computational and large data resources and software applications acquisitions
- assisting in establishing policies (i.e., scheduling, quotas, etc.)
- advocating institutional concerns and needs to OSC
- championing OSC initiatives at home institutions
- assisting in developing collaborative inter-institutional activities, including research and funding opportunities, that promote and provide mutual benefits.
