Honors/Awards/Achievements
Jennings Zhang (and Rudolph Pienaar) was invited this week to present
his work on running the ChRIS system using the `podman` container
infrastructure at this month's Podman Community Meeting. This is an
external technically focused group that drives the development of this
core opensource infrastructure. More than 40 folks were on the zoom call
and the presentation was very well received. This is a great example of
how openscience and opensource can cross pollinate. Link to the
presentation is here:
