Digital outreach – communications in a post-Covid world
Chris Wilkinson, NCI Communications Officer has a background in journalism and media production, and has been with NCI Australia as a Communications and Outreach Officer for over four years. First and foremost a storyteller, Chris translates the incredible scientific achievements made possible by high-performance computing and data services in Australia and shares these amazing stories with the world through moving images, research highlights and other media.
Aidan Muirhead, NCI Communications Officer grew up in two Australian territories – the ACT and the NT – as well as Singapore and Serbia. She loved that maths gave her a universal language and has always wanted to know more about how things work. Passion for STEM and sharing stories led her to complete a Bachelor and Graduate Diploma in Science Communication at ANU. After 8 years at Questacon developing and delivering STEM programs across Australia, Aidan moved to NCI in 2019. Aidan is proud to support diversity in HPC, HPD, and eResearch.
Adam Huttner-Koros, NCI Communications Officer, is a science communicator from Canberra, currently working at the National Computational Infrastructure. He came to do comms in the supercomputing world after some time dabbling with freelance writing. With interests spanning across science and in particular to linguistics, his broad experience in languages and science writing often comes in handy for cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary communication. Currently attempting to add German to a language portfolio including English, French, Hungarian and Japanese, Adam finds the science of language use, sharing and development fascinating.
