Not all software is created the same—nor is it easily adaptable for professionals studying and working in academic fields.
According to ARCS Scholar Samuel Grayson, modern science uses custom-built software, which is written and produced by trained engineers to ensure a specific set of outcomes and incentives are achieved. These... Read more
David Dixon, PhD and renowned computational chemist, is a Porsche enthusiast. It comes as no surprise then that as he tells the story of how he helped to save the stratospheric ozone layer, he talked about how to stay cool in a car in the summer in Alabama.
A bicycle country road tour in France was an opportunity for ARCS member Sheila Grinell to practice her French, a language learned decades earlier while she taught in Toulon on a Fulbright grant.

The compelling aspects and technologies of Artificial Intelligence that drew Noelle Brown to receive a masters in machine learning, are the same pieces of information that now push her to place ethical checkpoints in place for those creating it.
Brown, a first-year PhD student, is studying societal computing, also... Read more
The first time Randall Kelley, PhD, learned about Artificial Intelligence (AI) was as a Post-Doctorate Fellow at Harvard University in 2009. Kelley used machine learning science in a project—and never looked back.
Thirteen years later, ARCS Alumnus Randall Kelley is the Director of Machine Learning at Manifold, an... Read more
