<font size=2>To all,<br>
</font> <br>
<font size=2>Just wanted to give you information about our final HGWISE
lecture for this year. I am attaching a poster as well as specific
information on the subject matter and logistics in the body of this
email.<br>
</font> <br>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times">Dr. Margrit Betke will present a talk
titled “Video-based Tracking for Human-Computer Interaction and
Conservation Biology,” on May 10, 2007.<br><br>
The presentation, part of the Women, Science, and Society Seminar Series,
will take place in Maxwell Dworkin Room 119 at 33 Oxford Street in
Cambridge from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. with a reception to follow.<br><br>
Dr. Betke will begin her discussion with ideas on improving the status of
women in computer science, and will continue with an introduction to her
image analysis research. Betke and her students have developed
video-based interface systems that help children who cannot speak to
communicate. The systems have also been used to study Brazilian
free-tailed bats.<br><br>
Dr. Betke is an associate professor in the Computer Science Department at
Boston University. She has been an outspoken advocate for women in
computer science as well as for young faculty. For more information,
