About this episode

Meet Brad Tipp from Microsoft. Brad thinks that research software engineering has a crucial role to close the ever growing skills gap. The gap between demand for more research and research results and the ever increasing technical landscape that helps make it happen. This is not just a question of using cloud services but also a question of changing the mindset in training the next generation of scientists and facilitating roles that keep up with the technological landscape.Get in touchThank you for listening!
