B. Isham

Brett Isham received the B.S. degree in electrical engineering from Stanford University, Stanford, CA, in 1980 and the Ph.D. degree in space plasma physics from Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, in 1991. He worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher in 1991 at the National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center in Ithaca, New York; from 1991 to 1994 at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics in Kiruna, Sweden; and from 1994 to 1997 at the Arecibo Observatory, Arecibo, Puerto Rico. From 1997 to 1998, he worked as a Staff Scientist at the Arecibo Observatory; from 1998 to 2000 as an Associate Professor of physics at Interamerican University of Puerto Rico, Bayamón; from 2000 to 2004 as a Scientific Advisor at the European Incoherent Scatter (EISCAT) Scientific Association in Tromsø, Norway; in 1994 as a Scientific Advisor at the EISCAT Svalbard Radar in Longyearbyen, Norway; from 2004 to 2007 and from 2007 to the present as an Associate Professor and Professor, respectively, of electrical engineering at Interamerican University of Puerto Rico, Bayamón. His main research interests are artificial and natural Langmuir turbulence in the ionosphere, remote sensing of plasma and atmospheric parameters, and radio wave transmission, propagation, and detection.
