Argonne’s Margaret Butler Fellowship Offers Opportunity to Work on Exascale Computing Applications
May 10, 2021 — As a PhD student at Oklahoma State University, Romit Maulik was brimming with ideas on how supercomputers could advance his computational physics research, but he lacked the resources to put his plans into action. That all changed in 2019, when he joined the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) as the recipient of its Margaret Butler Fellowship in Computational Science.
“On paper, you can write out ideas, but to execute them, you often need help from experts,” says Maulik. “Since joining the ALCF, I have been able to take simple problems in my thesis and scale them up to much larger ones.”
The ALCF, a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science User Facility at DOE’s Argonne National Laboratory, is now granting the same opportunity to a new class of postdoctoral researchers through an open call for...
