HPC-CONEXS Webinar Series

We are continuing our webinar series throughout 2023.

We started our reiteration of the webinar series back in June 2023 and will continue throughout the year with exciting new lectures on X-Ray Spectroscopy. 

Attendees can register on Eventbrite to watch the webinars live and join the Q&A with our speakers. Recordings of our past webinars will also be shared on our YouTube channel:
