The Institute of Sensing Systems Spring 2009 Seminar Series kicks off on Friday October 16th. All faculty and students with interests in sensing systems are welcome.
The goal of this seminar series is for the sensing systems research community at The Ohio State University to understand at a deep level what each member does, with a view towards initiating, enabling and fostering discussions and active long-term disciplinary and interdisciplinary research collaborations. To achieve this end, this series will be publicized to a wide range of researchers and industry partners.
In the very near term, we hope that the conversations engendered by this series will lead to interdisciplinary collaborations and joint proposals and papers.
This series will be available via downloadable video from the ISS web site ( http://www.iss.osu.edu) and via live streaming video.
The schedule of speakers and topics is as follows:
