Co-Team Leader for Recombinant DNA Labs, Member of Materials
Science Team
Sue Wojtowicz is currently a member of the Electromagnetic Systems
Division where she contributes to a Maglev project for the Air
Force. She has a Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Engineering from
the University of Illinois and a Master of Science in Nuclear
Engineering from the University of Michigan. She joined General
Atomics in the Fall of 1979 as part of the Fusion group studying
controlled thermonuclear fusion in the Doublet III tokamak. Sue
has operated diagnostics utilizing x-ray and visible light in
order to investigate the high temperature plasmas of the fusion
environment.
Sue has contributed to other smaller programs at GA involving
novel plasma devices and was part of an internal R&D organization
where she was responsible for carrying out experiments in high
temperature superconductivity. During this time, she took a UCSD
Extension class on Introduction to Molecular and Cellular Biology
in order to communicate with the group of biologists that had
been employed in her group at GA.
Sue has been active in Education Outreach for several years,
teaching an extracurricular class on the electromagnetic spectrum
for grades 4 to 6 and by supporting the Recombinant DNA Labs
team. More recently, she has contributed to the Chromatics unit
within the Materials Science module.
Sue is a member of the American Physical Society.
