This was EuroSciPy 2022 in Basel
A Successful Conference
EuroSciPy 2022 was a great success. After a two-year break, it resumed its yearly schedule. Even though the decision to have an in-person event could be made only very late, leading to very tight deadlines, the conference was well-attended. Many high-quality talks and tutorials by members of the European scientific Python community made up the core of this event.
EuroSciPy 2022 in Numbers
We counted 210 attendees including people joining via 17 streaming access. Three exciting keynotes started the conference days. Beginners and advanced users learned in new topics in 16 tutorials. The latest research topics were presented in 30 talks.
Poster Session
Talk slots are limited. But EuroSciPy 2022 offered a poster session. The poster session gave presenters the opportunity to explain their projects and software packages. Very lively discussions provided a great opportunity to learn more about cutting-edge Python projects.
Sprints
The last conference days was dedicated to sprints. These projects gatherer core developers and newbies in sprints:
- Bokeh
- NetworkX
- Pandas - GeoPandas
- Scikit-learn
- The Mission Support System
Sprints are a great opportunity for developer teams that work remotely for most of the time to meet in person. There are also good way to onboard new team members.
