During this presentation Dr. Chris Marker will discuss hot topics in science, engineering and technology, specifically:
- Space exploration – brave new worlds
- Drones – from the military to amazon
- AI & Cybersecurity
- Wearable Technology – the “death” of Google glass, the king is dead long live the king
Dr. Marker will also demonstrate how the Inspec database drives research and innovation through its depth and breadth of content and ease of access. He will show how, through careful selection and categorization of relevant information, Inspec allows researchers to drill down and retrieve specific information quickly and efficiently; plus showcase why the Inspec database has been the research tool of choice of the world’s leading universities, companies and government agencies.
