Dr Rebecca Bell - Watson Forum Interview

Описание: The Watson Forum is a series of (informal) interviews that seek to highlight contributions of women in the areas of numerical modelling, simulation, and programming in the context of Maths, Physics, Earth Sciences and Engineering.

The Watson Forum is aimed at motivating young ladies to embark in numerical and modelling topics, and to project ‘real’ female modelling role models to the world! Many of the interviewees have hybrid careers that combine modelling with other activities, such as experimental and field work.

In the context of the Watson Forum, modelling is any activity that pertains to building any type of models (mathematical, geometric, computational, numerical, geological) to understand natural or manmade processes. This may include quantification, interpretation, prediction, simulation, visualisation, imitation, inspection, simplification, and many other activities related to understanding the world around us.

By highlighting the work of women in the simulation arena (in both industry and academia) we hope to increase the impact of their work, while encouraging others to pursue such careers.
