Dear NWRC 2022 participants:

It is our great pleasure to welcome each one of you to Korean American Scientists and Engineers Association (KSEA) Northwest Regional Conference (NWRC) on Science, Technology, & Engineering with emphasis on STREAM (= STEM + Arts + Recreation) in the Wake of the Pandemic (NWRC 2022). Local chapters in the northwest work with an Affiliated Professional Society (APS), Korean Computer Scientists and Engineers Association in America (KOCSEA), to host two conferences, NWRC 2022 and KOCSEA 2022, at the exact location simultaneously for mutual benefits.

We are inviting recognized researchers and engineers in various research areas covered in NWRC 2022 and KOCSEA 2022. Many professionals who work in STEM will come from all over the States. This will also be a great chance for those KSEA and KOCSEA members to meet new people and exchange their ideas around their work and research area. We also stress the intangible skills needed to further develop careers, communicate, and do business with other cultures and countries.

In general, throughout the conference, participants will have time to exchange research topics, their achievements, and recent technology trends as well as expanding their research network. This in turn can help US based KSEA members find other opportunities in research and collaboration.

We would like to express our most profound gratitude to Organizing Committees and volunteers for their dedications, and to sponsors for their generous support. We are confident that NWRC 2022 offers a productive and memorable experience for each participant. We welcome your participation and look forward to seeing you at NWRC +KOCSEA+CHANGBAL 2022!
