Text Box: “Innovating for Society”

Text Box: This year’s IEEE-FW Section MetroCon provides another strong technical program, allowing the attendee to rapidly grasp the technical and societal implications of some of our most promising and innovative new technological developments. Each of the three technical tracks has been organized in well-coordinated morning and afternoon sessions to help the MetroCon attendee achieve maximum exposure to our topics in minimal time.   The Emerging Technologies track, a continuing high-tech feature of MetroCon, returns with its usual broad range of “on the edge” hi-tech topics.    The Biotechnologies track brings together biotechnologists, academe, and engineers to shareshare the current biomedical industry issues, advances, and successes.    The Power Engineering track returns to MetroCon this year featuring critical and cutting-edge developments occurring today in the power industry sector.    More details coming soon....    -- The 2008 IEEE-FW MetroCon Organizing Committee
