BE Seminar: “Designer Matrices and Measurements of Cell-Matrix Remodeling” (Sarah Heilshorn)
https://upenn.zoom.us/j/96715197752UPDATE: This seminar will be virtual only via zoom – check email for zoom link or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu. Cell-induced matrix remodeling is a hallmark of tissue development, disease, and regeneration. My lab has been developing biomaterials and matrix characterization methods to study these dynamic cell-matrix interactions. In designing our biomaterials, we employ protein engineering methods […]

GRASP on Robotics: Cornelia Fermüller, University of Maryland, “Bio-inspired Motion Analysis”
Berger Auditorium (Room 13), Skirkanich Hall 210 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesVisual motion is a powerful cue that any animal uses, but computational vision has not fully taken advantage of it. Classically, Computer Vision and Robotics seeks to reconstruct models of the world by first computing from consecutive video frames the displacement of image points or the optical flow, and then computing from these measurements 3D […]
PICS Colloquium: “Taking a layman’s perspective to turbulence modeling”
PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesAbstract: Turbulence is an unsolved problem in classical physics. Its modeling often involves physical, mathematical, and numerical concepts that are daunting to even experienced engineers. This makes it very hard for a user to take a turbulence model from the literature and apply it in real-world engineering. This talk will take a layman's perspective to […]
PSOC@Penn Seminar: Keshav Patil
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesPhysical Sciences in Oncology Center PSOC@Penn Spring 2022 Hybrid-Seminar Series Towne 225 / Raisler Lounge @ Noon (EST) For Zoom link , please contact manu@seas.upenn.edu
MEAM Seminar: “Biomimetic Design of Marine Robots and Sensors”
Zoom - Email MEAM for Link peterlit@seas.upenn.eduInspiration from animal function can lead to effective design of engineered systems. Ocean systems benefit especially as operation in a heavy medium such as water imparts significant forces. We provide two examples of biomimetic design. In the first example, morphing fins inspired from tunas are used to dynamically change the directional stability qualities of rigid […]
ESE Spring Seminar – “New Frontiers in Quantum Simulation and Computation with Neutral Atom Arrays”
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesLearning how to create, study, and manipulate highly entangled states of matter is key to understanding exotic phenomena in condensed matter and high energy physics, as well as to the development of useful quantum computers. In this talk, I will discuss recent experiments where we demonstrated the realization of a quantum spin liquid phase using […]

Herman P. Schwan Distinguished Lecture: “Nucleoside-modified mRNA-LNP therapeutics” (Drew Weissman, Perelman School of Medicine)
Bodek Lounge, Houston Hall 3417 Spruce St, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesVaccines prevent 4-5 million deaths a year making them the principal tool of medical intervention worldwide. Nucleoside-modified mRNA was developed over 15 years ago and has become the darling of the COVID-19 pandemic with the first 2 FDA approved vaccines based on it. These vaccines show greater than 90% efficacy and outstanding safety in clinical […]
