PENSACOLA, Fla. -- John "Row" Rogacki, associate director at the Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC), has been named deputy director of the Doolitte Institute of Fort Walton Beach. The Doolittle Institute is a not-for-profit established to support the Air Force Research Laboratory and facilitate transfer of technology to and from the private sector.
