DEER brings together professionals in the engine community including engineers, scientists, academics, State and Regional regulators, environmental researchers and nonprofit organizations. At DEER 2009, DOE will showcase its cooperatively funded R&D with its partners, national laboratories, the nation's automotive transportation industry, universities, and other national and international organizations. DEER fosters the exchange of information and best practices through presentations and posters from new and on-going engine R&D and networking with industry colleagues.
