Research
area: Radiation effects and reliability, electrical
engineering and computer science. My research focuses on the
impact of radiation on computer circuitry, particularly in the
space environment. I am examining the effects of single ions on
radio-frequency circuits and am developing methods to “harden”
circuits to protect them from this type of radiation.
Undergraduate degree from:
Georgia Institute of Technology
Why Vanderbilt: The research
group I work with has an excellent international reputation My
wife did research at Vanderbilt as an undergraduate and is now
studying biomedical engineering. Vanderbilt was a good choice
for both of us.
