WELCOME! These GridCast podcasts and blogs give you a grassroots view of the hottest news at the cutting edge of scientific grids.

What is a GridCast? GridCasts take you behind the scenes of some of the most exciting grid computing events in the world. Share in the excitement as renowned speakers reveal the lastest in grid technologies and grid-powered scientific results; check out what happens at after dark at post-conference parties, where much of the real networking happens...

Patricia

Patricia Mendez Lorenzo
With a PhD in High Energy Physics, Patricia's critical role is helping all those projects which are willing to join EGEE to “gridify” their environment and applications.

Jose José Luis Vázquez-Poletti
José Luis leads a double life: Teaching Assistant during the day, Grid developer at night. He thinks that Human Grids are more important than Computer Grids: "Two machines can't collaborate if there's no human interaction before".
David

David Colling
While leading the eScience team activities at Imperial College in London, David is involved both in Grid activities and in the CMS experiment at CERN, in which Imperial has quite an active group.

Kerstin

Kerstin Ronneberger
Kerstin Ronneberger is a physicist who found her way via climate science to the grid. While modeling the impact of climate change for her PhD, the wish formed to contribute to a more efficient, more intelligent and more reliable data management for climate scientists.

Will

William Venters
Will is a lecturer in information systems at the London School of Economics and has a project to investigate how UK scientists are developing Grids for the LHC. In particular he is interested in how the Grid will influence the working practices of high energy physics.

Danilo

Danilo Piparo
Danilo finished a bachelors in physics and was a summer student at CERN in 2005, and a CERN openlab student the next year. Now he’s working at CERN on software for the LHC’s CMS experiment. He practices Kung-Fu, which takes the stress out of Grid computing.

Sarah

Sarah Pearce
With a background in astronomy, Sarah runs GridPP's outreach programme. Although working for a UK project, Sarah lives in Australia with her family, where she works remotely and holds late night phone meetings.

Pawel

Pawel Plaszczak
After having worked for the Globus Project, Pawel went off to found GridwiseTech and help earliest adopters of Grid technologies. Pawel is the author of "Grid Computing: The Savvy Manager's Guide" explaining Grid computing in business terms.
