ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Extracting Generalizable Hierarchical Patterns of Functional Connectivity in the Brain”

Levine 307 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

The study of the functional organization of the human brain using resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) has been of significant interest in cognitive neuroscience for over two decades. The functional organization is characterized by patterns that are believed to be hierarchical in nature. From a clinical context, studying these patterns has become important for understanding various […]

ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Integrated Diamond-based Devices for Quantum Sensing and Communication”

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

The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond has been integral to the advancement of quantum technologies. It has enabled key demonstrations in quantum networks and distributed quantum computing, as well as impressive proof-of-concept devices in nanoscale, sub-cellular imaging and sensing. The NV center - a point defect in diamond with an optically addressable electron spin - […]

ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Machine Learning on Large-Scale Graphs”

Room 452 C, 3401 Walnut 3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Graph neural networks (GNNs) are successful at learning representations from most types of network data but suffer from limitations in large graphs, which do not have the Euclidean structure that time and image signals have in the limit. Yet, large graphs can often be identified as being similar to each other in the sense that […]

ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Optical and Spin Dynamics of Quantum Emitters in Hexagonal Boron Nitride at Room Temperature”

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

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a van der Waals material that hosts defect-based quantum emitters (QEs) at room temperature, providing an unparalleled platform for realizing devices for quantum technologies and studying light-matter interactions. Recent observations suggest the existence of multiple distinct defect structures responsible for QEs. Theoretical proposals suggest vacancies, substitutional atoms, and their complexes as likely […]
