[Usecase] Advertising DSA and Hackathon

[Krishna Kumar]

Hi everyone:

I would really appreciate if you could personally reach out to your 
colleagues/friends to let them know about DSA and Hackathon. If they 
have any student who might be interested in attending the program. I 
would appreciate, if you could encourage them to attend in person. Thank 
you. The draft email is below and we will likely be extending the 
deadline to June 6th.

Thank you!!

DesignSafe and the NHERI SimCenter are pleased to announce the 2022 
DesignSafe Summer Academy and the NHERI Hackathon that will take place 
from July 25-29, 2022, at the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at 
the University of Texas at Austin. We encourage attending these events 
in person to get the most out of the activities, and some domestic 
travel funding will be available.  Attending in person offers the full 
benefit of interacting with other researchers and experts at TACC and 
natural hazard engineering. We will also offer a limited version of the 
program online.


The DesignSafe Academy (DSA) will be held on 25 and 26th July 2022.The 
DSA will include hands-on training on DesignSafe tools and will explore 
several real-world case studies.  It will enable graduate students and 
postdocs working on natural hazards to use DesignSafe in new and 
innovative ways. Additionally, it will allow researchers to work closely 
with DesignSafe/TACC staff to enable their workflows and learn about 
exciting advancements in artificial intelligence, high-performance 
computing, and data analysis facilitated by DesignSafe. Attendance will 
be limited to ensure meaningful interactions between participants and staff.


The 2022 NHERI Hackathon will be held on 27 - 29 July 2022. The NHERI 
Hackathon will involve participants working in teams to solve specific 
natural hazards problems using NHERI data, DesignSafe computational 
resources, and SimCenter tools.  The Hackathon is an exciting 
opportunity to improve knowledge of NHERI and DesignSafe/SimCenter 
tools, discover new research workflows, and explore exciting areas.


Please apply to the DSA and the NHERI Hackathon at the link below. 
Applications are due by May 27, 2022, and applicants will be notified by 
the end of May.
