My work in applications provides insight into scientific data and addresses specific questions posed by domain scientists. Many factors, occurring individually or in combination, make this endeavor challenging, including the size of the data set, its quality, its complexity, and how clearly the questions being addressed have been articulated by the domain scientists. Solving a real problem is far from trivial and often involves modifying and combining ideas and algorithms from different fields.
