Annual IEEE San Diego Section Awards Luncheon with Keynote speaker Dr. Stephan Russell
This annual luncheon event celebrates IEEE San Diego Section and the contributions of its 2015 leaders and the coming year in IEEE in San Diego. The program begins with a reception, followed by luncheon and awards, and the program features a talk by Dr. Stephan Russell, CTO of the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Pacific (SSC Pacific). SSC has a rich history of over 76 years of developing new technical capabilities that push the frontiers of science for the benefit of the Navy, Nation and warfighter. There is no other location where computer scientists, microbiologists, electrical engineers, research psychologists, physicists, and mechanical engineers work side-by-side with warfighters to develop the capabilities of the future. Hear about the latest research in biologically-inspired cyber systems, autonomous systems, microbial fuel cells and much more.
