In her doctoral research at Columbia University, Ganguly creates models of the neuronal connections in the fruit fly brain ...
Much of mathematics involves so-called forward problems. These problems begin with a model of a physical system — say, a ball rolling down an incline plane — and researchers use parameters, such as ...
You could excuse Abigail Poteshman for taking a meandering path during her scientific career. While still in high school, she joined her first lab to conduct cancer cell experiments. Now, on the verge ...
A Georgia Tech fellow models renewable energy and other problems with ever-changing unknowns. Real-world modeling problems are rife with uncertainty and complicated interactions. To maximize profits, ...
Environmental scientist Marianne Cowherd grew up in Michigan and loved snow. “My favorite thing was having school cancelled and going sledding,” she says. “But I never thought of snow as a water ...
Rahul Sahay’s quantum mechanics research started at his undergraduate school, the University of California, Berkeley. For his final project, working with DOE Computational Science Graduate Fellowship ...
A Harvard University fellowship recipient works to create quantum phases of matter.
A Montana State fellow charts a path from physics and modeling to a form of pure math called category theory.
A Caltech fellowship recipient works on the physics underlying turbulence, or the chaotic gain of energy when fluids move in unpredictable ways.
A Cornell University fellowship recipient works on methods for ensuring software functions as expected.
A UT Austin-based fellow blends physics and advanced computing to reveal cosmic rays’ role in stellar events.
The new season’s first episode features a conversation between host Sarah Webb and Lois Curfman McInnes, senior computational scientist at Argonne National Laboratory, on the need to recruit ...
