[Chicago] \welcome Scientifc SIG

[sheila miguez]

I wish I could help but I don't have time or graduate or equiv level
experience. I'm happy for people to talk to me about hosting something at
ps1 and if I'm busy another member might have time to host.

I'll spread the word to recruit more people.

And, I'm looking forward to attending events.
