Despite the recent widespread success of machine learning, we still do not fully understand its fundamental limitations. Going forward, it is crucial to better understand learning complexity, especially in critical […]
In structural materials engineering, we often aim to create materials that are simultaneously strong, tough and lightweight- a combination classically considered mutually exclusive. Biogenic composite materials such as bone exhibit […]
This seminar will be held in person and on zoom (the link will be sent out via email). Mucus is a biological gel within the lung designed to behave like […]
The successful integration of precision diagnostics with new personalized therapies opens numerous doors to improve the management of a variety of diseases. In cancer, tissue-environmental features of tumor progression and […]
Gallium nitride (GaN) nanoelectronics have operated at temperatures as high as 1000°C making it a viable platform for robust space-grade (“tiny-but-tough”) electronics and nano-satellites. Even with these major technological breakthroughs, […]
Nature provides countless examples of the use of material heterogeneity to enhance the failure properties of materials. Many biological materials, such as bone, marine shells, and fish scales, are extremely […]
*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and Virtual attendance via Zoom Factor graphs offer a flexible and powerful framework for solving large-scale, nonlinear inference […]
Abstract High-energy density batteries will play a remarkable role in hurdling global climate change. My research focuses on the fundamental understandings of their electrochemical reaction mechanisms and the design of […]
Human Induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) has the potential to generate all cell types of a human body under 2D culture conditions or form organ like structures-organoids, under 3D culture […]
We revisit the “One Learning Algorithm Hypothesis” of Andrew Ng (Google Brain) according to which the brain of higher-level animals and of humans processes and perceives sensory data (vision, sound, […]
