ESnet operates the high-performance data network for scientific research funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE’s) Office of Science. Confab is ESnet's largest user meeting, bringing together domain scientists, network engineers, DOE program managers, user facility staff, and ESnet staff to co-design the future of integrated science.
Confab25 will be the third Confab event, building on the highly successful Confab23. Confab25 will include updates from ESnet, our scientific research collaborators, the DOE’s Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, and more.
