To mark the Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellowship’s (DOE CSGF) 30th anniversary, the Krell Institute – which manages the fellowship – is launching the podcast Science in Parallel. The first season will feature current and former fellows, with the first two of six episodes now available here. Episode 1 is a conversation with Jeff Hittinger, director of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s Center for Applied Computing and a DOE CSGF alumnus; the second episode is a panel discussion with three recent fellowship graduates on artificial intelligence and climate change. Podcast host Sarah Webb is Krell’s associate science media editor, whose work has appeared in Nature, Science, Chemical & Engineering News, The Scientist and many others.
