| Representing
a more conventional approach to scientific endeavor, Paul
Murad brings decades of private sector and government consulting
to bear in the area of breakthrough science. His scientific
expertise is well-grounded in mainstream theory, but he balances
that with an open-minded approach to examining new or contradictory
results that may ultimately lead to new breakthroughs in science
and technology.
Murad's scientific leadership and government
experience have led him to become the chairman and organizer
for the annual “Space Technology & Applications
International Forcum” (STAIF) conference, and he brings
a wealth of experience to the issue of community-based technology
advocacy.
As the chairman of the review panel for submissions
to the STAIF conference, his experience includes a broad,
comprehensive knowledge of a variety of leading-edge Breakthrough
Propulsion and Gravity-Modification technologies and theories.
The result of his expertise in collecting and presenting Breakthrough
Propulsion research has been the acceptance of STAIF presentations
for publication in the prestigious American Institute of Aeronautics
and Astronautics (AIAA) Journal.
His expertise has included not only determining
which of these new ideas are the best fit for presentation
at the conference, but is also in determining how well revolutionary
scientific hypothesis may be later integrated into the larger
scope of human scientific knowledge.
His previous endeavors have included leadership
as the organizer for the High-Frequency Gravitational Wave
(HFGW) conference in 2003, sponsored by the Mitre Corporation.
Murad’s formal education includes a
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering (BSME) from
the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn, and later progressed
to a Master of Science in Aeronautical Engineering & Astronautics
from the New York University School of Engineering.
His educational background, spanning a forty-year career in
both private and public service, also includes study at the
University of Houston, Rice University, the University of
California at Davis, Sacramento State College, the University
of Florida, and Florida Technology University. These additional
studies effectively give him the equivalent of a second master's
degree in applied mathematics with a focus on lasers, fluid
dynamics, and electrical engineering.
