he joined the department of electrical and computer engineering at IUPUI where he is now professor and Associate Chair of the department. His research interests include solid state devices, applied superconducting, electromagnetics, VLSI design, and engineering education. He published more than 175 papers in these areas. He received plenty of grants and contracts from Government and industry. He is a senior member of IEEE and Professional Engineer registered in the State of Indiana Lauren Christopher, Electrical and Computer Engineering, IUPUI Dr. Lauren Christopher attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she received her S. B. and S. M. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in 1982, specializing in digital signal processing and chip design. She worked at RCA's David Sarnoff Research Labs in the 1980's developing chips for early digital television, and in the 1990s joined Thomson Consumer Electronics, where she led the first DIRECTV receiver design. She received her PhD from Purdue University in 2003, developing image segmentation techniques in 3D medical ultrasound images toward automatic cancer detection. In 2010, Dr. Christopher has been inducted into the Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame for her work in leading the development of the DIRECTV set top box. Dr. Christopher joined IUPUI in 2008, and is currently heading the 3D imaging and VLSI research in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. Her research continues the 3D medical image registration and image segmentation from her PhD work. Her research interests include real-time 3D systems, 3D image sensors and 3D image processing algorithms.
