Shroud of Turin Presentation by Dr. Tom D’Muhala

          Dr. Tom D’Muhala will be speaking at the Morning and Evening Worship Services at “The Light of Christ International Outreach Center” in Smithfield, N. C. on October 23, 2011.  Services start at 10:30 A.M. and 6:00 P.M.

          Dr. D’Muhala has been a consultant to the Department of Defense (DOD), the Department of Energy DOE), and Intek Marine Technology, LLC, in Fairfax Va.  He was formerly Vice President and Chief Science Officer of Corpex Technologies Inc., located in Research Triangle Park, N.C. Before moving to North Carolina in 1993 with his wife, Donna, Tom was President of Nuclear Technology Corporation (NUTEK), in Amston, Connecticut for twenty-three years.  Prior to that, he was Director of Nuclear Operations at General Dynamics Corporation.  Dr. D’Muhala spent most of his professional career in the Nuclear Weapons Complex.

          The Shroud of Turin is a 14’3” wide 3’7” long, fine linen cloth, believed, by many, to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ.  It bears the image of a crucified man with all the markings associated with the gospels accounts of Jesus’ crucifixion.  The Shroud has resided in Turin, Italy for the past 433 years.

          The Shroud came to the attention of American Scientists in the mid 1970’s.  In 1978, the Shroud of Turin Research Project, Inc. (STURP) was formed to enable more than 30 scientists, technicians, and logistic support personnel, to spend five 24-hour days conducting hands-on examination and research on the Shroud in Turin, Italy.  STURP members have since published numerous peer-reviewed papers in science journals.  Dr. D’Muhala was a founder, board member, and president of STURP, until 1996, at which time the corporation was retired.

          In 1996, at the urging of Ecclesiastic Authorities, the American Shroud of Turin Association for Research (AMSTAR) was incorporated to serve as a vehicle for conducting future conservation/scientific tests on the Shroud.  AMSTAR sponsored periodic international scientific conferences on the Shroud, and facilitated research activities in Turin, Italy.  Dr. D’Muhala served as the President and Board Chairman of AMSTAR.

                   In 2007, Dr. D’Muhala became President and Board Chairman of Evidentiary Research Institute (ERI).  ERI’s key objective is to become a “bridge” between/or among other Shroud researchers and groups, to foster cooperation, and to      encourage research efforts along a planned, coordinated path.
