Miriah Meyer was a Computing Community Consortium (CCC) Computing Innovation Fellow (CIFellow) from 2009 – 2011 at Harvard University. Upon completion of her Fellowship, Miriah became a USTAR assistant professor in the School of Computing at the University of Utah and a faculty member in the Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute.
Miriah has been selected for many accolades during her career, including being a TED Fellow, a Microsoft Research Faculty Fellowship, and being included on MIT Technology Review’s list of the top young innovators and Fast Company’s list of the 100 most creative people.
Most recently, Miriah was named a PopTech Science Fellow. This is a unique leadership development opportunity designed to help high potential working scientists become more effective communicators, collaborators and leaders both within and beyond the traditional bounds of academia.
The CCC will be holding a workshop for all former CIFellows this spring. We are very excited that Miriah will be one of the Co-Chairs organizing the event.
