Climate change — and the resulting harm to global biodiversity — is one of the world's most pressing challenges. We can already see how the climate crisis compounds social injustice around the world. When knowledge about climate change and biodiversity is not freely and openly available to all, only part of humanity is able to help build on that knowledge. When only some people are able to contribute to that knowledge, new insights and possible solutions are missing.

These two-hour training sessions will introduce participants to the ROCm software ecosystem for porting and developing applications to run on AMD
InstinctTM GPUs. Participants will learn about the ROCm software development languages, libraries, and tools. They will also get a developer's view of the hardware that powers the system. This workshop will focus mostly on how to program applications to run on the GPU.

How can I reuse material from my dissertation for publications, or vice versa? Do I need to register copyright for my dissertation/thesis? Should I share my dissertation/thesis publicly, and how do I go about sharing it? What do I need to be concerned about when using material from other publications in my dissertation/thesis? If you’ve asked yourself any of these questions, this workshop will explore copyright law, fair use principles, and publisher policies and help you to make important decisions about your own dissertation or thesis.

This 2-hour workshop will serve as an introduction to data visualization in R and is the second of a multi-part R workshop series. We will briefly cover some basic plotting functions, then focus our attention on ggplot2, a powerful data visualization package in R. In this session, we will learn the tools and knowledge to create any figure/graphic that you may need to describe your data. We will also show how to customize your graphics with titles, legends, colors, etc.

Artificial Intelligence has become the fiercest, fastest, and largest driver for change, innovation, and disruption in the twenty first century. However, on average it takes nine months for projects to make it from pilot to production. Though artificial intelligence has immense benefits, it’s a beast that continuous to grow larger and more complex.

This 2-hour workshop will serve as an introduction to programmings in R and is the first of a multi-part R workshop series. We will learn the basics of how to import, tidy, explore, and manipulate data, using the power of the "Tidyverse". If time permits, we will also cover basic data visualization techniques. Please attend the workshop "Data Visualization in R" for further study of data visualization.

The Postdoctoral and Early-career Association of Researchers (PEAR) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Postdoctoral Association of Colorado Boulder (PAC Boulder) present the fifth annual FRIPS.

The Office of Postdoctoral Affairs (OPA) in partnership with the GradCO alliance invites postdocs and graduate students to a virtual information series on successful proposal development. Jim Mazzouccolo, Proposal Editor & Writing Coach for the Research & Innovation Office (RIO), will discuss best practices around constructing a project narrative and the importance of word choice, transitions and flow.

Join postdocs for food and fun at the monthly social at the Rayback Collective. The family-friendly event will be sponsored by the Postdoctoral Association of Colorado Boulder (PAC Boulder).
