Future NSREC Conference Plans

The 2008 NSREC will be held in Tucson, AZ at the new Starr Pass J. W. Marriott Hotel, July 14-18. The conference site is a spectacular desert location in the mountains above the city. The Conference Chairman is Paul E. Dodd, of Sandia National Laboratories, pedodd@sandia.gov.
The 2009 NSREC will be held in Quebec, Canada at the Quebec Hilton and the Quebec Conference Center, July 20-24. The conference site overlooks the St. Lawrence River and the walled city of Quebec. The Conference Chairman is Mark A. Hopkins, of Aerospace Corp., mark.a.hopkins@aero.org.
The 2010 NSREC is still in the site selection process with Conference Chairman Joseph M. Benedetto, of RT-Micro, Inc., joseph.benedetto@micro-rdc.com

Member-At-Large Elected
Marty Shaneyfelt was elected Junior-Member-at-Large of the Radiation Effects Steering Group during the annual Open Meeting at the 2006 Nuclear and Space Radiation Effects Conference (NSREC).
Marty R. Shaneyfelt received his B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, in 1984, and his M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of New Mexico in 1990. From 1984 to 1990 he worked on technology development and manufacturing of radiation-hardened integrated circuits for Allied-Signal Microelectronics Operation, Albuquerque, NM. Marty joined Sandia National Laboratories in 1990, where he is a Distinguished Member of the Technical Staff in the Radiation Physics, Technology, and Assurance Department. At Sandia, he has been involved in numerous research activities associated with developing radiation-hardened bulk and SOI CMOS technologies, characterizing the physical mechanisms responsible for the radiation response of ICs, developing hardness assurance approaches, and addressing the limitations of using commercial technologies in radiation environments. Marty has authored or co-authored more than 130 publications, including eight NSREC Outstanding Conference Papers and two Hardened Electronics and Radiation Technology (HEART) Conference Outstanding Papers. He has served as General Conference Chairman, Publicity Chairman, Local Arrangements Chairman, Session Chairman, and Finance Chairman for the IEEE NSREC and Vice-Chairman of Publications of the Radiation Effects Steering Group. Marty is a Fellow of the IEEE and a member of the NPSS.
