Poster Session
Those papers that can be presented more effectively in a visual format with group discussion will be displayed in the Poster Session on Tuesday through Friday in the Mardi Gras Ballroom. The formal Poster session will be held on Wednesday from 2:15 to 5:30 PM and the authors will be available at that time to discuss their work. The Poster Session is chaired by Marta Bagatin from the DEI – University of Padova.
Radiation Effects Data Workshop
Workshop papers provide piece part radiation response data and radiation test facilities technical information. The intent of the workshop is to provide data and facilities information to support design and radiation testing activities. Workshop posters can be viewed Tuesday afternoon through Friday morning in the Mardi Gras Ballrooom. Authors will be available on Friday to discuss their work from 9:40AM to 12:00PM. A workshop record will be mailed to all registered conference attendees. The workshop chair is Jeff George from The Aerospace Corporation.
Invited Speakers
There will be three invited talks:
New Orleans and the Early Days of Jazz Richard Scott
The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and the Curiosity Rover: Perspectives on Whether Mars is Habitable Dr. Tanya Harrison, Arizona State University
The Waters of Katrina: What the Storm Taught New Orleans about its Land, People, and Problems Eve Troeh, National Public Radio
