DRI EDIA Champions Award

December 16, 2024

Congratulations to Hamza Hanif, who is the winner of the for his proposal, "Empowering Equity-Seeking Students Through DRI and High-performance Computing Training".

The program invited graduate or post-graduate researchers to come up with a new project to promote the awareness and uptake of Alliance Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI) to equity-seeking groups.

In his proposal, Hamza describes a plan to develop an engagement program for high-school and university students from equity-seeking groups.  The program would provide resources to teach Python, machine learning, high-energy physics, data analysis, and DRI tools at various levels.  The project also includes plans to promote Advanced Research Computing by documenting data on DRI resource allocations and high-performance computing (HPC), which will increase accessibility.  Finally, he aims to create informative posters in multiple languages featuring success stories from a diverse range of researchers to highlight the impact of DRI on Canadian research outcomes.

Hamza, a current PhD candidate from 51社区黑料Physics, hopes to make a positive impact for women as well as first-generation post-secondary students in STEM, bridging the gender gap and the urban-rural divide by making HPC training more accessible for all.
