Ann Almgren is a senior scientist and department head of AMCRD’s Applied Math Department. Her primary research interest is in computational algorithms for solving PDEs in a variety of application areas. Her current projects include the development and implementation of new multiphysics algorithms in high-resolution adaptive mesh codes that are designed for the latest multicore architectures. She is a SIAM Fellow and serves on the editorial boards of CAMCoS and IJHPC. Prior to coming to Berkeley Lab she worked at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ, and at Lawrence Livermore National Lab.
