Monthly Executive Committee Meeting Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/415695

Talk Abstract Visualization, interactive computer graphics, and related topics have been a particularly dynamic area of computational learning, modeling, and decision making, producing advances that impact society. Working at times in a research laboratory and at times for two science funding agencies, Dr. Rosenblum held positions at the level of an individual researcher, Director of a VR Laboratory, and funding agency Program Director. This talk will discuss some of his experiences, including insight into how science programs in funding agencies are initiated.
