On 16 March, the official DONES Steering Committee met for its first meeting in Granada and to celebrate the formal start of construction.
In celebration of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science on 11 Feb, the Fusion Group at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center highlights the past women speakers at the Fusion HPC Workshop, held virtually each year since 2020. This workshop covers all computer applications using High Performance Computing (HPC) in the field of fusion research.
The ITER organization and the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) have signed an Agreement on Academic and Scientific Cooperation early this year. This Agreement underlines the importance of promoting academic and scientific progress between the two institutions. Thus, boosting the training of young researchers and engineers by giving the possibility of joint supervision of PhD students and training and exchange of scientists and engineers. Among other possibilities, the door is also open for joint research projects on nuclear fusion.
We are looking for Research Engineers in Scientific Computing to join the growing team of the EUROfusion Advanced Computing Hub at BSC.
The successful candidates will participate in cutting-edge European R&D activities related with the optimization and programming of codes devoted to simulated plasma physics science and fusion technology. They will become members of this reference performance group in an international working environment.
