Biographical Sketch
David Skinner earned his Ph.D. in theoretical chemistry from UC Berkeley, where his research focused on quantum and semi-classical approaches to reaction dynamics and kinetics. David has been the lead technical advisor to the INCITE projects and has provided support to chemistry research at NERSC. He currently leads the SciDAC Outreach Center, which provides information and services that support SciDAC's outreach, training, and research objectives. David's publications while at NERSC have focused on the performance analysis of computing architectures and HPC applications. David is an author of the Integrated Performance Monitoring (IPM) framework.
