  • A valid Argonne employee badge, or
  • A valid/current (through September 27, 2014) APS user badge, or
  • A pre-approved gate pass for site access arranged through this registration.

Registration Fee

$150 registration fee will be assessed to all attendees to offset the cost of meals (Continental breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and refreshments). The balance will be covered by HPCAT.

Travel Grants

Reimbursement-based, limited financial support for young-career scientists (student and post-docs) is available through generous sponsor contributions (COMPRES and CDAC). The grants will cover the cost of flight, ground transportation, and lodging for non-local participants and registration fee for all qualified participants. The grants can be used to support young applicants at ~$300-$650 per applicant with $650 cap per person.

Because of limited financial support, travel support is available on a first-come first-serve basis. The travel grant applications will be sorted by the date received and reviewed by the organizing committee. The grant applications should be submitted to HPCAT before September 1st. All students and post-doc participants are encouraged to apply for the travel grant during registration. A short recommendation letter from supervisor/advisor is required.
