2025 Chlorine Institute Annual Meeting

SPEAKERS

General Session Speaker:

Dr. Thomas Ferris - Texas A&M University
Associate Professor, Industrial & Systems Engineering and Affiliated Faculty, Environmental & Occupational Health 

Dr. Thomas Ferris' research interests are in human factors and cognitive ergonomics and can be described as the study of cognition in human-machine engineered systems. His primary focus involves human information processing and design to support attention and interruption management. In particular, he investigates novel interface design techniques, employing alternative display modalities such as the sense of touch. Other research interests include human error, decision making under time pressure and human-automation interaction. He has interest and experience in applying his research to the domains of medicine (anesthesiology), military operations (command and control, UV control and operations), aviation (cockpit automation and air traffic control) and ground transportation. Dr. Ferris holds a Ph.D. in Industrial & Operations Engineering (Cognitive Ergonomics) from the University of Michigan.

HESS+ Seminar Speakers:

The Health, Environment, Safety and Security Plus or HESS+ Seminar will feature two rooms of concurrent presentations. The 45-minute presentations are designed to appeal to a wide range of CI members. It is called HESS+ because the Transportation Forum was discontinued and we will have transportation topics in addition to health, environment, safety and security-related topics.
