IEEE Black History Month collaborates with this invitation to a Live Event by: AT&T The NETwork NJ/NY Black History Month Program with Distinguished Innovators, Educators, and Entrepreneurs with AT&T Bell Labs Alumni Victor Lawrence & David Tarver to discuss their innovations and vision for the future. David Tarver currently serves as a lecturer in the University of Michigan College of Engineering Center for Entrepreneurship. He is also founder and board president of the Urban Entrepreneurship Initiative. His incredible entrepreneurial journey includes success in corporate R&D AT&T Bell Labs, tehcnology entrepreneurship, and community service. David holds BA and MS degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Michigan. Dr Victor Lawrence, a National Inventors Hall of Fame (NIHF) Inductee is a leading example of this dedication. Throughout his career at AT&T Bell Labs, Dr Lawrence has advanced signal processing in communications. His work has improved transmission for the modern internet and has made high-speed connections more available. Dr Lawrence attended the Imperial College of Science and Technology at the University of London where he earned his bachelor's, master's, and doctorate degrees in electrical engineering. 27 February 2024 Tuesday 12:30PM - 1:30PM Location: AT&T Labs 200 S Laurel Ave Middletown, New Jersey Multipurpose Room A2-7y06 and via MS Teams Light refreshments will be served.

Transistorized! Traces the discovery, invention and impact of the transistor, perhaps the most important invention of the 20th century. Implications on Nanotechnology will be discussed. These transistors are made of graphene, a material that conducts electricity much faster than most. It is a flat sheet of carbon atoms only one atom thick. It has great potential as a new (nano) electronic material thanks to the high mobility of its electronsthe Art. Hosted by Ira Flatow, the documentary recounts how American life was utterly transformed by the transistor, and how its basic principles have flowered into technologies that will dominate the next century. Agenda: 6:00 PM - Welcome and Introductions, Chapter business update; (on your own) Pizza, Popcorn and Soda Pop 6:05 PM - Documentary 7:05 PM - End of Documentary; Start of Q & A; Group Discussion 7:15 PM - Wrap Up ALL times are in EST/EDT (UTC-4 or UTC-5) depending upon local day light savings times in when effect Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/408769
