This week's guest is Dr. Brett Tully, who leverages his rich cross-domain experience to detail how data science is applied to the fields of nuclear fusion energy, cancer biology, and massive-scale aerial machine vision.

In today’s episode, Brett details for us:
• What nuclear fusion is, how harnessing fusion power commercial could be a pivotal moment in the history of humankind, and how data simulations may play a critical role in realizing it
• How the study of the healthy proteins versus the proteins present in someone with a particular cancer type is accelerating the availability and impact of personalized cancer treatment
• What it means to be a Director of A.I. Output Systems and how this role fits in with other A.I. activities in an organization, such as model research and development
• His favorite software tools for working with geospatial data
• His tricks for the effective management of a team of ML Engineers
• His take on the big A.I. opportunities of the coming years

Brett:
• Is the Director of A.I. Output Systems at Nearmap, a world-leading aerial imagery company that uses massive-scale machine vision to detect and annotate vast images of urban and rural areas with remarkable detail
• As the Head of Simulation at First Light Fusion, he developed state-of-the-art data simulations that could be a key stepping stone toward enabling commercial nuclear fusion reactors
• As the Group Leader of Software Engineering at a major research hospital, he worked to characterize the differences in the proteome — the complete catalog of proteins in your body — between cancer patients and healthy individuals
• As a PhD student at the University of Oxford, he simulated how the cerebrospinal fluid present in our brains flows in order to better understand neurological abnormalities
