The Gateways conference series is hosted each year at a location in the US. Gateways 2023 is excited to be coming to Pittsburgh, PA! Join us Monday, October 30 - Wednesday, November 1, 2023 at the Landing Hotel as we continue to bridge the connection between science and gateways.
Gateways 2023 will be at the Landing Hotel in Pittsburgh, PA, from October 30 to November 1, 2023. Tutorials will take place in the two weeks before the conference online.
Science gateways are end-to-end solutions with easy-to-use interfaces enabling the application of complex research infrastructures such as computing and data infrastructures, instruments, and other domain-specific resources to support research and education. Science Gateways are also called research portals, virtual research environments, eScience, virtual labs, eResearch, digital repositories, or research cyberinfrastructure.
Gateways 2023 is an opportunity for science gateways to showcase their ability to teach, empower and engage research, and provide technologies to various communities. It will also offer diverse options for sharing work and networking in the community. The format includes tutorial sessions, presentations, panels, posters, demos, and a BYOP - Bring Your Own Portal.
Being that Pittsburgh is the city with the most bridges in the world, we want to focus on the theme of building bridges between ourselves and across different groups. We welcome a wide variety of topics, as listed below. In your submissions, we invite you to consider how we can build bridges within the gateways community, between science and cyberinfrastructure, between academia and industry, and between gateways and the larger public.
Relevant topics for submissions
Topics include, but are not limited to:
We invite the submission of papers and abstracts related to science gateways. All contributions will be subject to standard peer review on quality and relevance.

This year we will dedicate a portion of the program to allow gateway owners to show off their gateways. The submission process to participate in this portion of the program is straightforward. The BYOP submission type will collect your gateway name, your URL, a few sentences describing your gateway, and one powerpoint slide providing details of your gateway in an easy to digest visual. Imagine this session as a type of poster session, but instead of a poster, you will have your laptop with your gateway loaded.
Please note that we cannot guarantee there will be power for every single gateway that participates in this session, thus please make sure your laptop can handle an hour of displaying your gateway without the need for power.
Because of the amazing response and submissions we've received for the BYOP - Bring Your Own Portal - we've decided to extend the number of submissions. Send in your abstracts to Gateways 2023 EasyChair before October 23, 2023.
BYOP - Bring Your Own Portal - submissions are due August 7, 2023 October 23, 2023
The poster session will take place October 30, 2023 at the reception. Authors are expected to bring a printed poster. Submissions must not exceed 500 words. Posters should be a maximum width of 30 inches, and a maximum length of 45 inches. We have poster/bulletin boards that are shared by two poster presenters. Please keep posters within the maximum size so they do not overlap with the other poster on the bulletin board. On October 30, 2023, you will be invited to hang your poster during the day before the start of the evening reception and poster session. One author must be at the poster during the reception to answer any questions. At the end of the reception, awards will be given to the authors of the best poster, which will be voted on by the conference attendees.
Authors that are accepted are expected to have their poster hung and ready to display prior to the start of the poster session. At least one author must be present to answer questions about the poster.
