Professor Karthik Duraisamy Sits Down with Michigan Engineering in MICDE Interview
After over a decade the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery and Engineering (MICDE) continues to grow and evolve
A recent interview between Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery and Engineering (MICDE) Director Karthik Duraisamy and the University of Michigan College of Engineering discusses how MICDE has grown over the past decade into a national hub for exploring computational science and artificial intelligence. With scientific computing at the University of Michigan going as far back as the 1940s, it is no surprise that MICDE has continued to unlock major advances in science and engineering.
Throughout the Q&A with Michigan Engineering, Prof. Duraisamy focuses on the mission behind MICDE and how they are pioneering new paradigms and applications of computational science and AI. Through their efforts, they have enabled various scientific discoveries and engineering innovations that are solving societal challenges and answering some of the most pressing questions of our time.
From molecular structures to genomic sequences to experimental measurements and simulation outputs, MICDE has become a leader in national conversations related to AI systems. Prof. Duraisamy specifically highlights that one of the key strengths behind the institute lies in identifying emerging trends and bringing together faculty from diverse disciplines, ultimately nurturing an environment for interdisciplinary research and education.
