ESE Spring Colloquium – “Quantum Device Benchmarking from Many-Body Quantum Chaos”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Recently, there has been remarkable progress towards the development of large-scale quantum devices through advances in quantum science and technology. This progress opens new doors for proof-of-principle demonstrations of quantum simulations as well as practically useful applications, such as quantum-enhanced metrology. However, these applications require first quantifying how well a quantum device produces a desired […]

BE Seminar: “The Interface between man and machine | Neural Interfacing for Sensory Feedback and Neuroprosthetic control” (Shriya Srinivasan)

Room 337, Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

This seminar will be held live and broadcast on zoom – check email for zoom link or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu. Despite immense technological and scientific advancements in prosthetic technologies, patients rarely use advanced prosthetic devices, as communicating to these devices is cumbersome and frustrating.  This talk will elucidate new strategies in reconstructive surgical design and neural interfacing […]

CBE PhD Dissertation Defense | “Surface Modification of Solid Oxide Cell Electrodes to Improve the Electrochemical Performance”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract:  "Solid Oxide Fuel Cells are high temperature, solid-state, electrochemical devices that can convert fuels into electricity or produce fuels from excess electricity. Oxygen is reduced at the cathode to oxygen ions which move through the ceramic to the anode. These oxygen ions are used to oxidize fuels at the anode compartment, producing heat and […]

CEMB Future Leaders: “Multiscale computational modeling of vascular adaptation and homeostasis”

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 […]

Spring 2022 GRASP SFI: Shuran Song, Columbia University, “The Reasonable Effectiveness of Dynamic Manipulation for Deformable Objects”

Levine 512

*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Levine 512 and Virtual attendance via Zoom From unfurling a blanket to swinging a rope; high-velocity dynamic actions play a crucial role in how people interact with deformable objects. In this talk, I will discuss how we can get robots to learn to dynamically manipulate deformable objects, where we embrace high-velocity dynamics rather […]

ESE Spring Seminar – “Surpassing Fundamental Limits through Time Varying Electromagnetics”

Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Surpassing the fundamental limits that govern all electromagnetic structures, such as reciprocity and the delay-bandwidth-size limit, will have a transformative impact on all applications based on electromagnetic circuits and systems. For instance, violating principles of reciprocity enables non-reciprocal components such as isolators and circulators, which find application in full-duplex wireless radios, radar, bio-medical imaging, and […]
