David's research aims to develop more effective methods for visually communicating information. This involves work in novel visualization techniques, visual analytics, volume rendering, information visualization, perceptually-based visualization, illustrative visualization, mobile graphics and visualization, and procedural abstraction of complex, massive data.

An active and well-known member of the visualization community he has served on the ACM SIGGRAPH Executive Committee, as Editor in Chief of IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, and on the IEEE Computer Society Board of Governors. 

David leads VACCINE, which is the Visualization Science team of the Department of Homeland Security's Command Control and Interoperability Center of Excellence.

He is participating in next week's Alan Turing Institute Symposium on Theoretical Foundation of Visual Analytics and we're delighted that he is stopping by to show us what's going on at VACCINE.
