About Thomas Proffen
Neutron scattering at large user facilities and advances in computing, data analysis and machine learning enable us to learn more about materials and how to solve problems than ever before. Working at the intersection of ORNL\'s experimental neutron scattering facilities and the ORNL Leadership Computing Facility is an especially exciting place to work. My \'spare\' time is devoted to science outreach and teaching the next generation girls about coding and technology.
