Doors will open at 6 pm for this FREE event that is open to the public. Refreshments will be provided.
 

South Texas Space Science Institute is closing out the Fall 2025 semester with a talk featuring one of RGV's own experts - Dr. Joseph Hollmann - Group Leader for Computational Sensors and Transducers at Draper Laboratory.

Dr. Hollmann works at the intersection of electromagnetics, sensors, and artificial intelligence. He develops new ways to “see” things that are normally hidden—whether that means measuring blood flow in the brain, tracking changes in glaciers, or sending information through challenging environments on Earth and in space. In his presentation, he will highlight several computational imaging projects carried out during his postdoctoral work at the Institute of Photonic Sciences and at Draper Laboratory, beginning with laser speckle imaging and concluding with a brief outlook on improving satellite-based optical communication with a focus on photon-limited links in space instrumentation.
