🎶 Workin’ 9 to 5? Not at the OLCF.😉
While Dolly Parton made “9 to 5” famous, OLCF’s leadership-class supercomputers work 24/7, running jobs that advance scientific discovery.
Because supercomputing doesn’t clock out at 5. ⏰
Happy #DollyPartonDay#! 🦋
#BigScience# @AMD@HPE
#PostdocAppreciationWeek# is a great opportunity to highlight the innovative work of postdoctoral researchers like Chao Lu, whose research is exploring new possibilities at the intersection of quantum computing and scientific discovery. ⚛️
