[Data-Mongers] Interested in cloud computing? seminar and tutorial on June 20

[Stace Beaulieu]

Data-Mongers and Bioinformatics folks:

A reminder about this upcoming opportunity that went out in Headlines:

INTERESTED IN CLOUD COMPUTING? SEMINAR AND TUTORIAL ON JUNE 20
WHOI's Data Science Summer Series will kick-off on June 20 with a 
seminar and tutorial for the Jetstream cloud computing platform, a 
production cloud system funded by the NSF. Come to the seminar at 11 
a.m., for an overview, then join us in the afternoon from 1 – 4 p.m., 
with your laptop for a hands-on tutorial using Jetstream via the 
Atmosphere web interface. The seminar and tutorial will be in the Smith 
Conference Room (Village Campus). Note: We'll accommodate those who 
would like to leave early for WHOI Employee Appreciation.
