Dr. Antonio Lanzirotti Chairman, National User Facility Organization Senior Research Associate, The University of Chicago Written Testimony Introduction Chairman Harris, Ranking Member Miller and distinguished members of the Committee, I thank you for this opportunity to testify. My name is Antonio Lanzirotti, I am a Senior Research Associate at the University of Chicago’s Center for Advanced Radiation Sources. It has also been an honor for me to serve this past year as the elected Chair of the National User Facility Organization and it is in that capacity that I am here today. Founded in 1990, our organization was established in the hopes of facilitating communication among researchers that utilize our nation’s scientific user facilities and facility administrators and stakeholders. We are a volunteer, non-profit entity and it is our hope that through these efforts we can educate our scientific peers and the American public of the availability, benefits and significance of research conducted at these facilities and provide a conduit for the scientific user community to disseminate recommendations of what we perceive are their operational needs. Diverse Scientific User Community Today the National User Facility Organization (NUFO) represents the almost 45,000 scientists who conduct research at the 46 largest federally funded user facilities in the United States.

  • Projecting 100 Years of Aerospace History Into the Future of Avionics
    31st Digital Avionics Systems Conference PR OJECTING 100 YEARS OF AEROSPACE HISTORY INTO THE FUTURE OF AVIONICS Crowne Plaza Williamsburg Williamsburg, VA 14-18 October 2012 Airplane image credit: NASA/MIT/Aurora Flight Sciences 31st Welcome to the 31st Digital Avionics Systems Conference For the 31st DASC this year in Williamsburg, Virginia, we’ll enjoy various aspects of flight in and around Virginia’s historic tidewater area while conjuring imagery of pre- ceding centuries. Aviation has seen amazing changes since 1912. What will it look like in 2112? Our strategy is to review and reflect on significant events in aerospace electronics history while building a case for how we see avionics projecting out to future generations. As in past DASC successes, we will continue to host exhibitors, highlight our confer- ence sponsors, and provide an avenue for publishing. Besides the over 200 papers in our Technical Program, we’ll have senior and acknowledged experts in our Plenary Session, Lunch Panel, Workshop, and Tutorial Program. The interactive workshop will be different in that a systems engineering model will be used and a product will be developed. We have renamed our Tutorial Program in memory of Cary R. Spitzer, the popular and long-time presenter, who passed since the last DASC. New in 2012, we’ve introduced a high school student competition “Engineering Our Aerospace Future,” which has sev- eral interesting and thought-provoking submissions. Williamsburg, the 17th Century capital of the Virginia Colony of the United States, is ideal for us this year. Historic Yorktown and Jamestown are nearby. Williamsburg not only sets a historic context of aviation but is also close to Langley Air Force Base, Naval Station Norfolk, and NASA’s Langley Research Center.
