Whether operating in a manufacturing plant or assisting within the home, many robotic tasks requires safe and controlled interaction with a complex and changing world. In this talk, I will present our recent progress on learning and control in contact rich settings. In the first segment, I will show how integrating the non-smooth structure of […]
Open-source software has been a critical enabler for tremendous innovation in the software ecosystem over the past two decades. Inspired by this success, open-source hardware involves making the high-level description of hardware components freely available for others to study, change, distribute, and ultimately use in fabricating their own hardware components. Unfortunately, open-source hardware has had […]

Presented by The Center for Neuroengineering and Therapeutics Presents and The Bioengineering Department. Check email for zoom link or Everett Prince at eprince@seas.upenn.edu. Retinal degenerative diseases lead to blindness due to loss of the “image capturing” photoreceptors, while neurons in the “image-processing” inner retinal layers are relatively well preserved. Information can be reintroduced into the […]
Abstract: This study involves design and fabrication of scalable, high surface area, and porous 3D metal network-based Li-ion micro-batteries with energy and power that meet the demands of commercial microelectronics. A facile high current hydrogen-templated electroplating technique is utilized to generate 3D structures millimeter scale in z-direction through a facile route, which serve as the […]
Details forthcoming.
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Drs. Daeyeon Lee and Junhyong Kim and are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Syung Hun Han. The public is welcome to attend on November 19th at 1pm via the zoom link provided below. Title: "High throughput Identification of Rare Cell Population by […]
This event will held virtually on zoom. Check email for the link or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu. Bladder cancer (BC) — the 4th most common cancer in men and the most expensive cancer to treat over a patient’s lifetime — is a lifelong burden to BC patients and a significant economic burden to the U.S. healthcare system. The […]
Behavior modeling is an important area of research as it severs many applications and disciplines; it expands on our knowledge of human behavior as well as allows us to develop novel AI entities that adapts to its users or mimics them. This area of research is by definition interdisciplinary and has stimulated interest from multiple […]
Abstract: Accurate atomistic computations of transport and reaction dynamics are an important challenge and an opportunity for designing materials for energy conversion and storage. In the context of thermoelectric materials, we develop new automatable computational methods for describing electron-phonon scattering dynamics. By predicting electrical transport properties, we computationally discovered several new low-cost thermoelectric alloys with […]
