The GWDG has strengthened itself in the area of High-Performance Computing (HPC). Together with the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, a new W2 professorship for HPC was established last fall, which at the same time also fulfills the tasks of the deputy head at the GWDG with a focus on HPC. We are pleased that Prof. Dr. Julian Kunkel from the University of Reading in England has accepted the call to this professorship as of June 1, 2021.
