Join the Central Florida Tech Grove and Team Orlando News as we proudly present a unique opportunity for the MS&T community to learn more from the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA), the agency within the U.S. Department of Defense whose mission is to recover American military personnel listed as prisoners of war or missing in action from designated past conflicts, from countries around the world.

A panel of their experts will unveil the DPAA's work in investigating, recovering, identifying, and returning our POW/MIA service members to their families. Meet their top forensic scientists and medical examiners as they share the cutting-edge techniques and methods used in accounting for missing personnel worldwide.

Take advantage of this enlightening experience to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for the work DPAA does to bring answers to the families of our fallen heroes.
