This year at the ASME IDETC-CIE 2025 conference Dr. Layton served as an invited panelist in the CIE divisions “Women in CIE” panel Sunday night.

The CIE Division hosted a one-hour networking event at the 2025 IDETC-CIE on Sunday, August 17, from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, including a reception. This event was designed to recognize the contributions of those from nontraditional backgrounds in engineering, celebrate achievements within the ASME community, and foster professional networking and mentorship opportunities.

The event featured a group of panelists with expertise in emerging technologies—such as Modeling and Simulation, Digital Twins, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence-and how these innovations are helping to broaden access and opportunity across the field.
