University of Chicago and ANL Computation Institute
Dr. Joshua Elliott is currently working as a Research Scientist and Fellow in the University of Chicago and ANL Computation Institute, also an Adjunct Research Scientist in the Columbia University Center for Climate Systems Research. He works on a variety of topics at the interface of global change, environmental, and social sciences through a variety of applied modeling and computational projects and leads team at the center for Robust Decision-making in Climate and Energy Policy (RDCEP) and in the Agricultural Modeling Intercomparison and Improvement Project (AgMIP). Currently, he is working on several projects designed to improve global change Vulnerability, Impact, and Adaptation (VIA) assessment tools (primarily in agriculture and forestry) using large-scale high-resolution models enabled by high-performance computing. Dr. Elliott received his PhD in high-energy theoretical particle physics from McGill University in 2008 and has been with the Computation Institute since 2009.
