IEEE JMEMS Special Proceeding for the Hilton Head 2020 Workshop

The 20th in the series of Solid-State Sensors, Actuators, and Microsystems Hilton Head Workshops was scheduled for May 31–June 4, 2020, at the Sonesta Resort on Hilton Head Island, SC, USA. Unfortunately, like most academic conferences in 2020, it was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Hilton Head 2020 Workshop (

) was designed to continue to represent the science and engineering excellence of the MEMS community while introducing a number of innovations to the structure of this historic meeting. Some of these changes included the workshop becoming an international meeting for the first time while remaining committed to its key mission of excellence in showcasing recent innovative work and offering strong networking opportunities. We would have had new representatives from multiple regions in North America on our Technical Program Committee (TPC) and a strong focus on cultivating the impact of MEMS on global issues and grand challenges (including a full-day short course on “Microsystems Frontiers in the IoT Era”).
