Abstract A delicate balance of noncovalent interactions drives hydrated molecular amphiphiles to self-assemble into lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) of varied topologies, the exquisite nanodomain structures of which suggest applications as […]
The fascinating diversity of material behavior at the macroscopic scale, including plasticity, phase transformations, viscoelasticity or diffusion, can only emerge from the underlying atomistic or particle behavior. Yet, the direct […]
Machine learning has dramatically enhanced the role of automated decision making across a variety of domains. There are three ingredients that are at the heart of designing of sound ML […]
Lossy data compression is a vital, if hidden, enabling technology. This virtual seminar would be impossible without data compression! Existing compression standards for images and audio rely on a "classical" […]
This seminar will be held live and broadcast on zoom - check your email for the zoom link or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu. Improved experimental model systems are critically needed to better […]
Applications are increasingly data-intensive and bound by the performance of the memory and/or storage system. This “memory wall” arises from several factors: the volume of data is increasing exponentially, outstripping […]
*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance for Dr. Malikopoulos’ in-person talk in Wu & Chen Auditorium and Virtual attendance via Zoom Webinar here. Geometric perception is the […]
Piezoelectricity is the intrinsic coupling between electric fields and strains in materials. While piezoelectric sensors, actuators, and RF filters are ubiquitous and important components of existing microsystems, their potential is […]
This seminar will be held live and broadcast on zoom – link coming soon. Neural engineering is enjoying an era of transformative growth. Classical methods that dominated the neurosciences for […]
Self-assembled materials with defined nanoscale architectures can engage with biological systems in fundamentally new ways, providing unprecedented biomedical opportunities. In particular, the ability to more precisely control both the location […]
