The 3rd European meeting on Python in Science
Paris, Ecole Normale Supérieure, July 8-11 2010
We are happy to announce the 3rd EuroScipy meeting, in Paris, July 2010.
The EuroSciPy meeting is a cross-disciplinary gathering focused on the
use and development of the Python language in scientific research. This
event strives to bring together both users and developers of
scientific tools, as well as academic research and state of the art
industry.
Important dates
Registration opens: Sunday March 29
Paper submission deadline: Sunday May 9
Program announced: Sunday May 22
Tutorials tracks: Thursday July 8 - Friday July 9

- Presentations of scientific tools and libraries using the Python
language, including but not limited to:
- Vector and array manipulation
- Parallel computing
- Scientific visualization
- Scientific data flow and persistence
- Algorithms implemented or exposed in Python
- Web applications and portals for science and engineering
- Reports on the use of Python in scientific achievements or ongoing projects.
- General-purpose Python tools that can be of special interest to the scientific community.
