DescriptionThis minisymposium aims to bridge geographical divides, such as those between Europe and the United States, and domain-specific barriers across fields like material sciences, astrophysics, and high-energy physics. Our primary objective is to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among communities that often operate in isolation, ensuring that diverse perspectives are represented. We are committed to engaging a diverse range of speakers, including both male and female experts, to enrich the dialogue with varied insights. In addition, this symposium focuses on supporting underserved communities that face challenges in accessing high-end resources and data storage capabilities. This includes regions with limited access to advanced technology and data infrastructure, posing barriers to conducting leading-edge research. These communities often struggle to obtain and share critical data for their scientific work. This minisymposium provides a platform for these communities to facilitate the exchange of knowledge, best practices, and resources. Through this collaborative approach, we strive to empower researchers from diverse backgrounds to make substantial contributions to their fields and the broader scientific community.
