Third Arab-American Frontiers Symposium

The Arab-American Frontiers program is participant driven: an organizing committee of 12 members makes the selection of session topics, suggests speakers, and chairs the individual sessions during the symposium. The session topics presented at the symposium were:

  • Session I: Sensor Processes, Circuits, and Networks
  • Session II: Advanced Materials and Assemblies for Sensing
  • Session III: Advances in Biomedical Sensing Technology
  • Session IV: Advances in Environment Sensing
  • Session V: Sensors to Maintain Agroecosystem Health
  • Session VI: Integrated Approaches to Sensing Across Modalities

Description

The Arab-American Frontiers program convenes U.S. and Arab scientists, engineers, and medical professionals to discuss major scientific advances on a wide array of topics relevant to the MENA region and globally. The goal is to enhance the scientific exchange and dialogue among young researchers in Arab countries and the United States, and through this interaction, facilitate research collaboration within and beyond the region.

The third Arab-American Frontiers symposium was held in partnership with the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia on December 5 - 7, 2015. The meeting convened U.S. and Arab scientists, engineers and medical professionals to discuss major scientific advances on a wide array of topics under the overarching theme of "Sensing Technologies, Networks and Applications".
