2013 Visiting Scholars Awarded
The NCSRR will host its third Visiting Scholars Program this summer. We selected three exceptional candidates from a large and highly competitive pool of applicants based on their outstanding scientific potential, strong computational skills, and past contributions in modeling and simulation. The 2013 Scholars include Ananth Gopalakrishnan, Luca Modenese, and Massimo Sartori. Read more about the scholars and their projects here.
