ABOUT THE AUTHOR Frances Chance received her bachelor’s from the California Institute of Technology and her master’s and doctorate fromBrandeis University in computational neuroscience. While her research has always maintained a focus on understanding how neural circuits compute information, Chance has also become intrigued by the potential parallels between the operations of neural systems and the challenges faced by modern computers (or in the case of this article, interception systems) since coming to Sandia National Laboratories. Her research at Sandia Labs has focused on apply- ing her knowledge of neural systems towards development of novel neural-inspired solutions for engineered systems.
