Ann Almgren is a Senior Scientist in CCSE and the Department Head of the Applied Mathematics Department in Berkeley Lab's Applied Mathematics and Computational Research (AMCR) Division. Her primary research interest is in computational algorithms for solving PDEs in a variety of application areas. Her current projects include the development and implementation of new multiphysics algorithms in high-resolution adaptive mesh codes that are designed for the latest multicore architectures. She was the Deputy Director of the ECP AMReX Co-Design Center, is a SIAM Fellow, and serves on the editorial boards of CAMCoS, IJHPCA and Phil Trans A. In 2023 she was awarded the LBNL Director's Award for Exceptional Scientific Achievement. Prior to coming to LBL she worked at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ, and at Lawrence Livermore National Lab.
