Presenter

Peter is a student at University of California Santa Cruz studying astrophysics and computer science. While most of his research career has been spent focusing on astrophysical phenomena, he recently spent time researching HPC Parallel I/O with the Scientific Data Management Group at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The results from that project are the subject of his poster submission to the SC17 Student Research Competition. After graduating in Fall 2017, he will immediately start a Master's program at UCSC in Scientific Computing and Applied Mathematics in order to study the application of HPC techniques to difficult scientific problems.
