The Graduate Simulation Seminar Series (GS^3) is back for summer 2021! It offers a 10-week seminar program featuring talks from a diverse set of graduate students and/or postdocs who use simulation in their research, representing a wide swath of academic disciplines across UCSB.

Seminars will be held on Wednesdays from 2 - 3PM over Zoom this summer, starting Wed, July 7th and going through September 8th. During this period, some keynote speakers will be invited to give a talk and/or to hold a panel discussion on cutting-edge simulation/computation-based research and career opportunities (speakers TBD). Please see the below flyer for more details.

The team is now looking for graduate or postdoc seminar presenters! If you would like to give a talk or lead a workshop on a computation/simulation topic, please sign up as soon as possible using this form. You can choose to give a 30 minute or 1 hour talk. This is a wonderful opportunity to practice presenting your research to a friendly audience. The best speakers (determined by audience evaluations) will also receive a prize, sponsored by the Center for Scientific Computing at UCSB.

You can also use the registration form to sign up for the mailing list, suggest invited speakers, and to express interest in joining the GS^3 advisory board. This mailing list will be used to share abstracts for upcoming seminar talks and to notify you about simulation/HPC happenings throughout campus.
