CBE Seminar: “No Equations, No Variables, No Space, No Time: Data and the Modeling of Complex Systems”

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

Abstract Obtaining predictive dynamical equations from data lies at the heart of science and engineering modeling, and is the linchpin of our technology. In mathematical modeling, one typically progresses from observations of the world (and some serious thinking!) first to equations for a model, and then to the analysis of the model to make predictions. […]

BE Seminar: “Dynamics of 3D Cell Migration and Organ Formation” (Kenneth Yamada)

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

This event will be held virtually on zoom - link coming soon. Real-time microscopy of the dynamics of cells and tissues in 3D environments is opening new windows to understanding the biophysical mechanisms of complex biological processes. Direct visualization is allowing us to explore fundamental questions in more depth that include: How do cells migrate […]

MEAM Seminar: “Soft-Matter Engineering for Robotics and Wearables”

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

Progress in soft lithography and soft materials integration have led to extraordinary new classes of soft-matter sensors, circuits, and transducers. These material technologies are composed almost entirely out of soft matter – elastomers, gels, and conductive fluids like eutectic gallium-indium (EGaIn) – and represent the building blocks for machines and electronics that are soft, flexible, […]

ODEI Spotlight: Career Services’ 2021 Engineering Career Day (Virtual Career Fair)

Calling all Penn Engineers, candidates in STEM fields and those interested in engineering and technology - you're warmly invited to Engineering Career Day 2021!! Organizations participating are seeking undergraduate and graduate degree candidates, postdoctoral fellows and young alumni for internships and full-time opportunities! When they register, they indicate the majors and academic levels of the […]

CEMB Future Leaders Seminar: “Exchange of molecular and cellular information: A hybrid model connecting regulatory interactions with stem cell divisions in the root”

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 […]

CBE Seminar: “Design of Sequential Catalytic Solvolysis Process for Selectively Deconstructing Waste Plastics”

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

Abstract Environmental plastic problems have recently arisen as a core subject of global debate and concern. Plastic products for multiple applications have risen from 1.7 million in 1950 to 368 million tons in 2019 and are projected to reach 1,800 million tons by 2050. Recycling plastics and enabling the circular economy are essential to mitigate […]

MSE Seminar: “From Conducting Polymers to Conducting Molecular Search A Materials Science Pathway to the Perkin Medal”

Auditorium, LRSM Building 3231 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

The Perkin Medal that Dr. Frommer is receiving in September cites her lifetime scientific accomplishments in electronically conducting polymers and atomic force microscopy. The reality is these are but two points on a continuum of using chemistry to reveal the molecular underpinnings of material properties. This talk will take a path through studies to explore […]

BE Seminar: “Regenerative Engineering: Enabling Regenerative Medicine” (Guillermo Ameer)

Moore 216 200 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

This seminar will be held live and broadcast via zoom - check your email for link or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu. Regenerative engineering is the convergence of advances in materials science, physical sciences, stem cell and developmental biology, and translational medicine to develop tools that enable the regeneration and reconstruction of tissue and organ function. I will […]
