LRSM Seminar: “Expanding Our Vision of Glasses: Physical Vapor Deposition Prepares Ultrastable and Anisotropic Materials”
Glandt Forum, Singh Center for Nanotechnology 3205 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesGlasses are generally regarded as disordered and the idea of “controlling” molecular packing in glasses is reasonably met with skepticism. However, as glasses are non-equilibrium materials, a vast array of […]
MEAM Seminar: “Robots that Evolve on Demand”
Wu & Chen AuditoriumSoft robots have the potential to adapt their morphologies and behavioral control policies to changing tasks and environments. Inspired by the dynamic plasticity of living organisms and the general adaptability […]
CIS Seminar: “Decentralized Mechanism Design: Cryptography Meets Game Theory”
Wu & Chen AuditoriumIn classical auction design, we take it for granted that the auctioneer is trusted and always implements the auction's rules honestly. This assumption, however, no longer holds in modern auctions […]
ASSET Seminar: “Efficient Sharing of AI Infrastructures with Specialized Serverless Computing”
Amy Gutmann Hall, Room 414 3333 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, United StatesAbstract: The efficient sharing of AI infrastructures is becoming increasingly important in both public and private data centers. This demand is driven by two key factors: the proliferation of specialized […]
Spring 2025 GRASP SFI: Guandao Yang, Stanford University, “Toward Spatial Intelligence with Limited Data”
Levine 307 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesThis will be a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Modern artificial intelligences (AIs) rely heavily on internet-scale data with unified representations. […]
CBE Seminar: “Engineering Technologies for Enhanced Modeling, Detection, and Treatment of Neurological Disease” (Alice Stanton, MIT)
Wu & Chen AuditoriumAbstract: Neurological conditions are the leading cause of illness worldwide, though over 92% of clinically tested CNS drug candidates fail to become treatments. Contributing to this high failure rate is […]
MSE Seminar: “Tuning Nanostructured Materials for Combustion Applications” (Kerri-lee A. Chintersingh, Ph.D., New Jersey Institute of Technology)
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United StatesMetals powders like aluminum and boron are attractive potential fuel additives for pyrotechnics, propellants and explosives due to their high energy release upon oxidation. However, they tend to agglomerate, have […]
IDEAS/STAT Optimization Seminar
Amy Gutmann Hall, Room 414 3333 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, United StatesHerman P. Schwan Distinguished Lecture: “Engineering Proteins, Genomes, Viruses & Organs” (George Church, Harvard & MIT)
ZoomOur exponential technologies for reading, writing genomes and epigenomes combined with AI-ML has enabled large libraries and selections for radical new functions — e.g. resistance to all viruses, novel delivery […]
