Consulting & Training
We hold regular Code & Data Clinic sessions where researchers can stop by to get help with their own source code.
To learn new skills or improve existing skills, researchers can also participate in our courses and workshops on various problem of scientific computing that we developed based on the needs of our users.
The next Code & Data Clinics and upcomping courses will be announced in our news section.
