SUMMARY:NERSC Agentic AI Bootcamp\, April 2026
DESCRIPTION:<p>NERSC\, in collaboration with <a title=\"web link to Nvidia 
 company main page\" href=\"https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/\">NVIDIA</a> and 
 the <a title=\"link to the OpenACC web page\" href=\"https://www.openacc.o
 rg/\">OpenACC organization</a>\, will host an <a title=\"web link to NERSC
  Agentic AI Bootcamp landing page\, Apr 2026 \" href=\"https://www.openhac
 kathons.org/s/siteevent/a0CUP000041fFFJ2A2/se000476\">End-to-End AI for Sc
 ience bootcamp</a> on April 23 - 24\, 2026.</p>\n<p>Agentic AI employs sop
 histicated reasoning to solve complex problems\, utilizing data from multi
 ple sources to analyze\, strategize\, and complete tasks independently. Th
 ere are many powerful building blocks that developers and researchers can 
 use to enable and accelerate the development and deployment of their agent
 ic AI workflows.</p>\n<p>The Agentic AI Bootcamp covers some of these powe
 rful tools\, including Model Context Protocol (MCP)\, an open protocol pro
 viding a standardized method for connecting AI models to various data sour
 ces and tools\; NVIDIA NIM\, a set of easy-to-use microservices that provi
 des pre-optimized models and industry-standard APIs for building powerful 
 AI agents\, co-pilots\, chatbots\, and assistants\; and LangGraph\, an ope
 n-source library for complex and stateful workflows for AI agents.</p>\n<p
 >Attendees are guided through the creation of MCP servers based on Stdio/H
 TTP using the high/low level MCP SDKs\, building MCP clients to interact w
 ith MCP Servers\, and using MCP Clients/Servers with NVIDIA NIM in LLM/Age
 ntic workflows. Attendees will then apply these learned skills in a hands-
 on challenge to replace parts of an existing workflow with MCP.</p>\n<p>Th
 is virtual bootcamp is a hands-on learning experience where you will be gu
 ided through step-by-step instructions with teaching assistants on hand to
  help throughout.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>We will be using Perlmutter GPUs for the 
 Bootcamp. This event has limited capacity\, so we recommend applying early
 . Training accounts for Perlmutter will be provided for non-NERSC users.&n
 bsp\;</p>\n<h3>Prerequisites</h3>\n<p>Basics of Python and Python package 
 manager (such as pip\, conda\, or uv)</p>
