IEEE Metro Los Angeles Communications Chapter

As technologies push the limits of traditional silicon, the U.S. faces a critical challenge: how to continue delivering high-bandwidth, energy-efficient, multifunctional microelectronics essential for advanced technologies. Conventional 2D scaling is reaching physical and economic limits, and while industry is pursuing advanced packaging, the integration of mixed materials – beyond silicon – remains largely untapped. Yet this integration is essential for achieving the order-of-magnitude improvements that next-generation capabilities will require. Join Michael Holmes from DARPA’s Microsystems Technology Office, to learn how DARPA’s (https://www.darpa.mil/research/programs/next-generation-microelectronics) program is addressing this challenge. NGMM is establishing the nation’s first open-access center for U.S.-based 3D heterogeneous integration (3DHI) focused on mixed materials integration to leapfrog ahead of today’s state of the art. In partnership with The University of Texas at Austin and its Texas Institute for Electronics (TIE), NGMM is developing a sustainable domestic hub for R&D and pilot production, which will enable rapid prototyping and fabrication of advanced microsystems critical to future technological needs. Attendees will also learn about opportunities to engage with the NGMM community at the inaugural NGMM Summit this October in Austin, Texas.

Ronny Elfassy will provide an overview of WHO’s Emergency Medical Team (EMT) network told through various deployments with an emphasis on hardware and software used in operations. The WHO’s EMT initiative is a global effort designed to enhance the speed and quality of emergency medical response during disasters, outbreaks, and other health emergencies. It coordinates and supports rapid deployment of health professionals and teams to areas affected by crises, ensuring that the care provided meets international standards and that local health systems are strengthened, not burdened. Since its formalization following the 2010 Haiti earthquake, the EMT network has grown to include certified teams from over 150 countries, standing ready to respond to emergencies around the world—from earthquakes and cyclones to pandemics and complex humanitarian crises.
