Interaction amongst individuals in the research community is central for the advancement of computational methods within and across disciplines and institutions.
At the OSC Research Symposium, OSC invites our users and non-users to contribute valuable information through various means, including posters, talks and discussion sessions.
The Symposium also allows OSC to collect feedback so the Center can continue to provide a productive environment for research.

The OSC Community
The success of the Ohio Supercomputer Center and, in turn, our community depends upon the participation of Ohio's researchers. Anyone who utilizes OSC resources and services is a part of the OSC community and can engage in the community by:
- advising on computational and large data resources and software applications acquisitions
- assisting in establishing policies (i.e., scheduling, quotas, etc.)
- advocating institutional concerns and needs to OSC
- championing OSC initiatives at home institutions
- assisting in developing collaborative inter-institutional activities, including research and funding opportunities, that promote and provide mutual benefits.
- attending the annual fall Community Briefing event
Find more resources for engaging below. If you have additional questions please contact Brian Guilfoos.

Past Event Agendas and Meeting Minutes
Until 2024, the OSC community was primarily organized and supported by the OSC Statewide Users Group (SUG). SUG has transformed into the OSC Research Symposium and the OSC Community Briefing, aiming to cultivate community engagement in new, more adaptive ways.

SUG Meeting Minutes and Agendas dating back to January 10, 2013 are available online.
