CEMB Future Leaders: “Multiscale computational modeling of vascular adaptation and homeostasis”

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 […]

Spring 2022 GRASP SFI: Shuran Song, Columbia University, “The Reasonable Effectiveness of Dynamic Manipulation for Deformable Objects”

Levine 512

*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Levine 512 and Virtual attendance via Zoom From unfurling a blanket to swinging a rope; high-velocity dynamic actions play a crucial role in how people interact with deformable objects. In this talk, I will discuss how we can get robots to learn to dynamically manipulate deformable objects, where we embrace high-velocity dynamics rather […]

ESE Spring Seminar – “Surpassing Fundamental Limits through Time Varying Electromagnetics”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Surpassing the fundamental limits that govern all electromagnetic structures, such as reciprocity and the delay-bandwidth-size limit, will have a transformative impact on all applications based on electromagnetic circuits and systems. For instance, violating principles of reciprocity enables non-reciprocal components such as isolators and circulators, which find application in full-duplex wireless radios, radar, bio-medical imaging, and […]

GRASP on Robotics: Gregory Hager, Johns Hopkins University, “Observing, Learning and Executing Fine-Grained Manipulation Activities”

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

This seminar will be held in person in Wu and Chen Auditorium as well as virtually via Zoom. In the domain of image and video analysis, much of the deep learning revolution has been focused on narrow, high-level classification tasks that are defined through carefully curated, retrospective data sets. However, most real-world applications – particularly those […]

PICS Colloquium: “Computational Image Analysis For Individualized Surgical Treatment Planning of Bicuspid Aortic Valves”

PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract: The bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a congenital heart defect in which the aortic valve has two cusps rather than three. Moderate to severe aortic regurgitation is the most common complication in young adult BAV patients and requires major, and often repeated, surgical intervention. BAV repair is an evolving surgical treatment for aortic regurgitation […]
