Subject Matter Experts

What constitutes as an expert? Even though the very concept of being an expert is somewhat subjective, one thing is clear—no one can be an expert at everything. That’s why Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) is comprised of a variety of practical and intellectual leaders who each specialize in their own expertise.

For reporters looking for industry-specific information, the following list provides the ultimate source file of names and brief biographical information on ORAU’s most experienced professionals. Each representative is available for interviews, but all requests must be coordinated through Pam Bonee, ORAU director of communications, or one of the other media contacts listed in the right hand column.
