Perovskite-type titanates are the standard dielectric used in multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), and yttria-stabilized (YSZ) is the prototypical fast oxygen conductor used in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and oxygen […]
Abstract: How does a robot’s body affect what it can do? This talk explores this question with respect to a morphology common to biology but rare in robotics: the presence […]
Multi-rotor Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAV) have become popular robotic platforms in the last decade due to their manufacturability, agility and diverse payload options. Amongst the most promising applications areas of […]

T cells are important to the initiation, prevention, and cure of many diseases. For example, various T cells based cancer immunotherapies have been quite effective in treating several types of […]
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Joel Boerckel are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Devon E. Mason. This event is open to […]
How can science and technology help cities solve their problems? Are there common urban air, water and energy challenges for science to tackle? 10:00 am Urban Challenges with (potential) Materials […]
Curved shells, when confined, can deform to a broad assortment of large scale shapes and smaller scale wrinkling and folding patterns quite unlike what produced by their flat counterparts. The […]
Materials in Practice is a seminar series where technologists who are using materials science to shape the world we live in share their secret to doing this. We hope that […]
The process of scientific inquiry involves observing a signal (data) and interpreting it to generate information (knowledge). For example, in electron microscopy the signal may be a diffraction pattern from […]
