Cory Quammen is a technical leader on Kitware’s Scientific Computing Team based in Carrboro, North Carolina. His main area of focus is scientific visualization and he is a core developer of Kitware’s open source platforms, VTK and ParaView. Cory leads several projects with industrial partners to build custom ParaView-based software applications that are tailored to their customers’ analysis and visualization workflows. These applications provide streamlined best-in-class post-processing capabilities for simulation domains such as computational fluid dynamics and finite element analysis. In addition, Cory coordinates collaborations with government customers from the Departments of Energy, Defense, and Commerce to expand the core visualization and data analysis capabilities of ParaView and VTK. Prior to joining Kitware, Cory was a research associate for the Department of Computer Science at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. During this time, he added deconvolution algorithms to the Insight Toolkit, created a custom version of ParaView for the Modeling and Data Analysis Initiative (MADAI) team at UNC to visualize high-dimensional likelihood distributions from Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling, and lead the software development for the Virtual Pediatric Airways Workbench (VPAW), a surgical modeling and planning tool for physicians treating pediatric patients with obstructed airways. Cory received his master’s degree in computer science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He received his bachelor’s degree in computer science from Gustavus Adolphus College.
