Scott Griffith is a Associate Professor of Math and Computer Science at Whitworth University. His background is in embedded systems and high performance computing. Scott has an ongoing, creative and productive collaboration with Dr. Betsy Bancroft of Gonzaga University's Ecology and Biology department, as well as a number of other highly skilled scientists. From Scott's perspective, this partnership is centered around the development of ecology research equipment, and the configuration and execution of experiments using that equipment. Betsy would probably say the partnership is centered around climate change and understanding stressors of freshwater ecosystems. Both are probably correct.
