Description

Season 1 Episode 3

Dr. Meifeng Lin is computational scientist at Brookhaven National Laboratory. She is the "High Performance Computing" Instructor for the INT Summer School on Problem Solving in Lattice QCD.  

"I am a computational scientist with a background in lattice QCD. I am also learning to be a gardener in my spare time. My research focuses on the efficient utilization of the world's fastest supercomputers. I love my research as I get to work with scientists from different domains, and learn a lot of cool science. I have been working from home since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although I miss seeing my friends and colleagues, I have enjoyed spending more time at home with my six-year-old and my cat."  

My Journey as a Physicist is brought to you by PhD student Bryan Stanley (he/him/his) and Prof. Huey-Wen Lin (she/her). 
Season 1 features interviews with the 2021 INT Summer School on Problem Solving in Lattice QCD.

What is life as a physicist is like? It is a little bit different for everyone. On each episode, a different physicist discusses their research, what got them interested in physics, obstacles they overcame, and what a typical day as a physicist looks like. They also provide tips and suggestions for students who may be interested in studying physics and becoming physicists. Physicists are people with lives outside of the lab too! Guests share about their interests and hobbies outside of research. Be sure to listen if you are interested in becoming a physicist too!
