July 8th-12th marked the [Center for High Throughput Computing](https://chtc.cs.wisc.edu/)’s (CHTC) and the [OSG Consortium](https://osg-htc.org/)’s second annual Throughput Computing Week, [HTC24](https://agenda.hep.wisc.edu/event/2175/timetable/#20240708). A total of 156 attendees in person, and 250 remote participants joined together, representing a total of 122 institutions, to share their contributions and insights for all things high throughput computing (HTC). Campuses from across the country intent on supporting research on their campuses as well as researchers from a wide range of science domains joined the event. Campuses varied significantly in size and experience with throughput computing but shared the common goal to advance research opportunities on their campuses. Similarly, researchers in attendance ranged broadly in their area of research from physics to biology to oceanography, but shared the drive to advance their work through HTC.

This week-long event included notable moments bringing together the high throughput community. The presentation by HTC24’s keynote speaker [Anthony Gitter](https://biostat.wiscweb.wisc.edu/staff/gitter-anthony/), Associate Professor and Principal Investigator at the Morgridge Institute for Research, inspired the audience. His talk, “[Unleashing the power of protein engineering with artificial intelligence](https://agenda.hep.wisc.edu/event/2175/contributions/30970/),” explored the intersection of AI and protein engineering in synthetic biology. Gitter discussed AI-guided approaches like Mutational Effect Transfer Learning (METL) for predicting the effects of sequence modifications on protein function. The talk also discussed advancements in supervised learning models and deep mutational scanning techniques, showcasing AI's transformative potential in optimizing protein functionalities for medicine and industry.

This year there were also dedicated sessions for campuses covering topics including the CC* solicitation process and campuses contributions to the OSPool. These sessions provided campus representatives from those already involved or those considering proposals with the chance to dive deeper into the CC* process. Cartwright touched on the OSG’s campus outreach services, how to connect, and then opened the panel up to the institutions, allowing for a Q&A and ‘stump the experts’ session.
