(d) Synergistic Activities:
Technology Transfer: Collaborating with the Idaho Acelerator Center (IAC) Homeland Security efforts. The IAC has a full scale cargo container scanner which they use to test the effectiveness of their active interrogation program. My role has been to investigate the use of a GEM based neutron detector for their system.
Outreach:
2001: First year of REST program 2007: Intern program for Highschool students and teachers. 2008 Physics Demos at Syringa Elementary
