The University of Texas Science and Technology Center, in cooperation with
SEMATECH and IC2 Institute, is sponsoring a lecture by Dr. Arati Prabhakar,
director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology.  She will
speak at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, June 16 in the McCullough Theater on the UT
campus.  Her talk will address "Civilian Technology for Economic Growth:  A
New Role for Federal R&D."  While with DARPA, Prabhakar was instrumental in
the genesis of SEMATECH.  Since taking the helm at NIST, she has helped to
define NIST's new mission:  to work with industry in leading this country's
technological revitalization.  Prabhakar, who was appointed to the NIST
directorship at 34, is a dynamic leader and speaker.

To receive free tickets to the talk, please call the UT STC at 471-9462.
Seating is restricted and tickets are required.  Questions should also
be directed to this number (rather than to the poster of this message).

This is the first in an annual series, The Technology Lectures, to be
presented by the UT STC for Synthesis, Growth, and Analysis of Electronic
Materials, a National Science Foundation funded center at the University of
Texas at Austin.
