July Eastside Science Café: “Securing Emerging Technologies: Medical Devices, Robots, Cars, and More” 7 p.m. July 12, at Wilde Rover Tadayoshi Kohno, PhD; Department of Computer Science & Engineering, University of Washington From transportation to medical devices, technology can greatly improve the quality of our lives. But today’s and tomorrow’s technologies also risk compromising our digital (and physical) security and privacy. Dr. Tadayoshi Kohno will talk about research from the UW’s Computer Security Lab, which aims to help us achieve the wonderful promises of new technologies without the associated security and privacy risks. August Eastside Science Café: “Distracted driving—how technology can help, not hinder” 7 p.m. August 9, at Wilde Rover Linda Ng Boyle, PhD; College of Engineering, University of Washington Many devices in your car—cell phones, GPS, and MP3 players—can be distractions while driving. At our August Eastside Science Café, UW Engineering professor Linda Ng Boyle will talk about how new technology can help distracted drivers and keep our roadways safer. Join us on August 9th at Wilde Rover in Kirkland, and come prepared to ask questions! |
