GRASP on Robotics: “Event-based Neuromorphic Perception and Computation: The Future of Sensing and AI”

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Wu & Chen Auditorium and Virtual attendance via Zoom Webinar here. There has been significant research over the past two decades in developing new systems for spiking neural computation. The impact of neuromorphic concepts on recent developments in optical sensing, display and artificial vision is […]

MEAM Seminar: “Time and Rate Dependent Fracture of Polymer Gels and Interfaces”

Zoom - Email MEAM for Link peterlit@seas.upenn.edu

Fracture of materials and interfaces is often time and rate dependent. The underlying mechanisms for the time and rate dependent fracture may include local molecular processes, viscoelasticity, and poroelasticity (solvent diffusion coupled with deformation). In this talk, I will present our recent works on two different mechanisms. First, the effects of poroelasticity on fracture of […]

Fall 2021 GRASP SFI: “Artificial Intelligence and its Impact on Engineered-Systems Design”

Levine 307 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and Virtual attendance via Zoom here… Our research employs artificial intelligence techniques that seek to automate the main time/cost drivers of engineered-systems design. The features of a system inform the form, function and behavior of the resulting concept that can be subsequently created […]

GRASP on Robotics: “Approaches to Grounded Language Acquisition from Human Interaction”

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance for Dr. Matuszek’s in-person talk in Wu & Chen Auditorium and Virtual attendance via Zoom Webinar here.  As robots move from labs and factories into human-centric spaces, it becomes progressively harder to predetermine the environments and interactions they will need to be able to handle. Letting […]

CEMB Future Leaders Seminar: “A microviscosimetry toolbox for plant cells + tissue based on molecular rotors”

https://upenn.zoom.us/j/96715197752

Launched in May 2021, the Future Leaders in Mechanobiology is a monthly seminar series featuring up-and-coming leaders in mechanobiology–PhD students and postdocs from a wide range of fields, backgrounds, and institutions. By providing an international stage to share one’s work and opportunities to interact with researchers at all career stages, we aim to create an inclusive and […]

BE Seminar: “Ionic Liquid-based Therapeutics” (Samir Mitragotri)

https://upenn.zoom.us/j/96715197752

This seminar will be held virtually on zoom - check your email for the link or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu. Ionic liquids, the liquid salts comprising organic anions and cations, offer exciting opportunities for several therapeutic applications. Their tunable properties offer control over their design and function. Starting with biocompatible ions, we synthesized a library of ionic […]

ESE Fall Colloquium Seminar – “New Materials for Three Dimensional Ferroelectric Microelectronics”

Zoom - Meeting ID 954 7393 2132 PA, United States

In the last decade, there have been major changes in the families of ferroelectric materials available for integration with CMOS electronics.  These new materials, including Hf1-xZrxO2, Al1-xScxN, Al1-xBxN and Zn1-xMgxO, offer the possibility of new functionalities. This talk will discuss the possibility of exploiting the 3rd dimension in microelectronics for functions beyond interconnects, enabling 3D […]
