DARPA Risers are some 50 hand-selected, early-career scientists and engineers that DARPA program managers identified as possible future superstars with expertise that could be important to national security. During a closed-door event at the D60 Symposium on September 5, 2018, the Risers presented posters about their research to a panel of DARPA program managers. 

In this session, Dr. Peter Highnam, DARPA Deputy Director, welcomes the three DARPA risers chosen to present their work to all Symposium attendees at the DARPA Riser Plenary Session.
