The Industry Advisory Group

AMPED’s industry advisory group members are prominent scientists and leaders from industry and national laboratories, selected to represent key segments and application areas of critical importance to the consortium. Our original advisors helped found AMPED and remain foundational to it. They give the faculty leadership team insight into emerging needs and trends across industries and government agencies, helping ensure that AMPED’s research and education stay relevant and impactful. We are grateful for their contributions and guidance.
