Short Bio:
David J. LePoire is an Environmental Systems Analyst at Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago IL. He analyzes and applies new technologies for environmental, energy, and homeland security issues resulting in reports, software, and collaborative websites. He develops environmental software, such as RESRAD, including aspects of analyses, training, models, and information systems. He has developed training materials and has traveled throughout the U.S. as a trainer for topics in radiation detection, environmental analysis and software application. He also develops scientific models and training for uncertainty analysis, international radiological threat, data fusion, and environmental contamination issues. He participated as a monitor in the Russian-US HEU Transparency Program and as a scientist in the DOE Radiological Assistance Program. He has also researched nuclear and optical diagnostic tools. His current research interests include understanding the coupled transitions of energy, environment, and social organization. He has a PhD and MS in Computer Science from DePaul, a BS in Physics from CalTech, and is a founding member of the International Big History Association. Author or Co-Author of 10 book chapters, 38 refereed papers, and over 100 technical reports and conference papers.

These activities include involvement in detector setup, deployment, and analysis, field exercises and field measurements along with working with DNDO on their Mobile Detection Deployment Unit (MDDU). Conducts training for use of radiological transport pathways, cleanup, and detection for the DOE, NRC, IAEA and Civil Support Teams. Software tools include applications in environmental transport, uncertainty analysis, Bayesian sampling analysis, collaborative web sites, and GIS applications. Developed graphical user interfaces, object oriented programming, and web-based communication tools for a series of environmental information systems and models. Developed and used software quality assurance methods.
