Brock Tice’s Summary

I am currently a graduate researcher in computational cardiac electrophysiology. I began research in this field as an undergraduate in the winter of 2002, and have been a graduate student in the lab since May of 2004.

I have been a Linux and Unix user since Fall of 2000, and am therefore well-suited to computational science. Throughout my tenure in the lab, I have been responsible not only for cardiac electrophysiology research, but development of research software and administration of linux workstations, fileservers, and a high-performance cluster.

The advent of the "social internet", in which users from anywhere can interact and communicate, has spawned new ways of living and working. The influence of this development has barely touched hard science, especially in the field of cardiac electrophysiology. I want to bring the power of online collaboration to my field.
