The 2024 IEEE Symposium on Reliability for Electronics and Photonics Packaging was hosted Nov. 8-9 at Purdue University. For the first time in its five-year history, the symposium took place in the Silicon Heartland rather than Silicon Valley, bringing together electrical, reliability, materials, mechanical, and computer engineers and applied scientists.

The event featured speakers from Purdue, the University of Maryland, imec, NASA and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
