Teamwork in Action: Midwest RCD at PEARC25

Last month, the Midwest RCD Consortium Program Office had a fantastic time at PEARC25 — a week full of learning, sharing, and connecting with the research computing and data community! It was great to see so many familiar faces and meet new colleagues from across the country. We were proud to present three posters, including one highlighting the work of the Midwest Research Computing and Data Consortium, and two showcasing our contributions to ACCESS initiatives. It was inspiring to engage with peers, exchange ideas, and talk with poster judges about the impact of our work.

A big thank-you to PEARC Conference Series, the hashtag#PEARC25 organizers, and everyone who stopped by our posters. Also, a huge thanks to our presenters, including Esen Gokpinar-Shelton, Dinuka De Silva, Winona Snapp-Childs, Laura Pettit, JP Navarro, Rob Quick, and everyone else who contributed to making this work possible. This is true teamwork in action! We’re excited to keep the momentum going as we continue advancing the research computing and data community in the Midwest!
