Gabriel Dominguez, Ernesto Rendon, and Rachel Scarboro are the three recipients of the Department of Scientific Computing’s first scholarship award. The prize was created in 2016 to promote excellence in the field of Computational Science. High school seniors and college freshmen, sophomores and juniors were eligible to apply.

Simulating complex fluids such as colloidal suspensions or blood flows is particularly challenging, as they possess some kind of elastic microstructure, characterized by a microscopic length scale as well as other physiognomies: fluid-structure interactions, large deformations, strong nonlinearities, non-local interactions, evolving interfaces and multiple length and time scales with, typically, no clear scale separation. Scientific Computing assistant professor Bryan Quaife, along with George Biros from the University of Texas organized a workshop to bring together experts from various areas and initiate advances in the simulation capabilities and our ultimate understanding of complex fluids.

Over the course of three decades Dennis E. Slice, Professor of Scientific Computing at Florida State University (Tallahassee), has contributed in many crucial ways to the development, dissemination and innovative application of today's best morphometric methods. His early articles and reviews helped teach biologists about Procrustes analysis and its differences from other approaches beginning well before his actual doctorate was awarded. More recently, he and his students have advanced novel landmark-free methods for analysis of 3D image data with important applications in areas such as forensic anthropology that academic biologists rarely explore. Along the way, he has developed 20 open source software packages that are widely used for morphometric analysis across the full range of his application fields.
