“Hi, I’m Steven Farabaugh. I’m a student at UAF and an employee at ARSC. I’ve been developing an Android app for Frontier Scientists for the last few months. This experience has been awesome! I’ve been exposed to all sorts of interesting science that I would have never seen without this app. And that’s why I think it’s such a cool idea; science should be accessible and having this content in on the iOS and Android platforms is just awesome.” ~ Steven Farabaugh

Developers Steven Farabaugh, Aaron Andrews, and Jay Byam are University of Alaska Fairbanks students and Research Project Assistants at the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center. The Arctic Region Supercomputing Center is part of the University of Alaska Fairbanks Geophysical Institute.
