<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Argonne is launching an AI training program aimed at undergraduate and graduate students interested in taking their AI skills to a new level. The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility
(ALCF) <b>AI for Science Training Series</b>, which kicks off on October 28, 2021, is a weekly virtual program designed to teach attendees the fundamentals of using world-class supercomputers to advance the use of AI for science.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">The intensive, hands-on series will leverage Argonne’s AI expertise and the ALCF’s supercomputing resources to provide a unique learning experience that will give participants a leg
up in the burgeoning field of AI for Science. We will cover all aspects of using supercomputers for AI, from employing Jupyter notebooks, building data pipelines for deep learning, uncertainty quantification, reinforcement learning, geometric deep learning,
and distributed training, to mention just a few of the topics to be explored with hands-on examples using experimental datasets.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
