More about the speakers below:

** **
Professor Rubin Landau received his B.S. in Engineering Physics from
Cornell University in 1965, his M.S. in Physics in 1966 from the University
of Illinois, and his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Illinois in
1970. His research specialty is theoretical and computational studies of
the interactions of elementary particles with bound systems. He held
postdoc positions at the Universities of Pittsburgh and British Columbia,
and from 1974-1985 was a regular visitor at Triumf and UBC. He has also
held visiting appointments at the University of California, San Diego (the
Supercomputer center and the Institute for Nonlinear Science); the Nuclear
Theory Institute at the University of Washington; Adelaide University;
Melbourne University; IBM Research, Yorktown Heights; the University of
Surrey; the Hebrew University of Jerusalem; the Weitzman Institute; and
Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. He is a Fellow of the American Physical
Society (Division of Computational Physics), an Oregon State University
Distinguished Professor, and since 2003 a Professor emeritus, teaching part
time and continuing computational developments.

Dr. Wendy Carter-Veale has a passion for helping people succeed.  To say
Dr. Carter-Veale understands the obstacles to success is an understatement.
She adopted author Julia Cameron’ s ( The Artist’s Way) personal philosophy
"Leap and the net will appear," to encourage herself throughout her
educational career. Raised in a home challenged by poverty, alcoholism, and
abuse, along with four siblings, the statistics said that Dr. Carter-Veale
would not graduate high school or attend college. Ignoring those
statistics, she attended Stanford University after graduating from the
academically rigorous Boston Latin Academy. That was her escape and her
promise of a brighter future. She earned both a B.A. and M.A. from Stanford
in six years – even after becoming a single parent.  Earning five degrees
from Stanford, Carnegie Mellon, and University of Wisconsin-Madison, she
persevered despite the costs and seemingly insurmountable challenges.

 Renetta Garrison Tull is Assistant Dean for Graduate Student Development
at UMBC and Director of PROMISE: Maryland’s AGEP (alliance members: UMBC,
the University of Maryland Baltimore, and the University of Maryland
College Park).   Tull earned the B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Howard
University, and both the M.S. in Electrical Engineering and the Ph.D. in
Speech Science from Northwestern University.  She was an Anna Julia Cooper
Postdoctoral Fellow and Assistant Professor of Communicative Disorders at
the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW) and a researcher in speaker
recognition technology with the Trace Center (Rehabilitation Engineering)
prior to coming to UMBC. In her current roles, Tull works to increase
community and professional development opportunities for underrepresented
graduate students and postdocs at UMBC, UMB, and UMCP through targeted
PROMISE AGEP programs that include: Professors-in-Training (PROF-it),
Dissertation House, the Community Building Retreat, Fall Harvest, Research
Symposium, Reflections Health and Wellness Seminars, and others. These
programs, along with PROMISE’s recruitment efforts and the growing
recognition of Maryland’s commitment to diversity at the graduate level,
have contributed to increases in applications
