The list of conferences is a very important element of the home page. Attract nuclear & plasma science professionals who are just starting to specialize. Engage nuclear & plasma scientists whose work extends across several fields of interest. Serve as an educational resource for professionals at all levels (from new professionals through advanced researchers). 4 New Web Design Goals

5. Objectives for Re-design Improve the overall information architecture of the site to allow for easy (intuitive) access to all areas of information (e.g. newsletters, awards, publications, conference information, committee activity, chapter activity). Across all platforms. Promote attendance at conferences and chapter events by providing timely information on sponsors, event dates and location, event description and features (speakers, agendas, topics, locations, etc.). Networking is a primary value of each conference. Optimize search engine results for particular keyword search phrases allowing the site to be found more readily and frequently. Promote the availability of distinguished lecturers, their prestigious credentials and the value of their presentations to professional groups. (e.g., Dan Fleetwood). Establish the NPSS site as a premier, authoritative, go-to source for leading edge information on nuclear & plasma sciences and related subjects. 5 New Web Design Objectives
