Joseph Bordogna Forum: “Engineering for Everyone: Centering Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion”
Please join us for this distinguished lecture given by Dr. Gilda Barabino, President of Olin College of Engineering. “Engineering for Everyone: Centering Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” At its core, engineering […]
MSE Seminar: “Engineering Organoid Models for Understanding Human Neurodevelopment and neurological disorders”
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 […]
MSE Seminar: “How do tissues fracture and repair across length scales?”
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 […]
BE Seminar: “Self-Assembling Nanotechnologies for Precision Biomaterials” (Santiago Correa, Stanford)
Self-assembled materials with defined nanoscale architectures can engage with biological systems in fundamentally new ways, providing unprecedented biomedical opportunities. In particular, the ability to more precisely control both the location […]
MSE Seminar: “Data-driven materials design in the quantum regime: motif-centric learning framework and local-symmetry-guided material discovery”
Materials design in the quantum regime call for the integration of multi-tier materials information that go beyond atomic structures. Especially, many quantum behaviors are greatly controlled by local symmetries and […]
MSE Seminar: “Topological Quantum Phases, Novel Superconductors, and Ultra-Thin Films Beyond Graphene”
Dr. Bansil will discuss some of his recent work aimed at understanding the electronic structure and spectroscopy of novel superconductors, topological materials, and atomically thin 2D films and battery materials. […]
MSE Thesis Defense: “Ultra-High-Resolution Patterning and Pattern Transfer via Nanocrystal Colloidal Lithography”
The ability to design, pattern, and process materials at the nanoscale has enabled vast research opportunities ranging from fundamental science to technological applications and device integration. The continued development of […]
MSE Seminar: “Local to Meso-scale Order in Electronic Ceramics Characterized by Aberration -Corrected Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy”
The ability to design the composition and microstructure of electronic ceramics for emerging technological applications requires sophisticated characterization techniques that can provide quantitative information about local structure and chemistry. Such […]
MSE Seminar: “Lansdcapes of Glass”
If cooled sufficiently quickly, the disorder of a liquid can be “quenched” or locked in place; the resulting amorphous solid is glass. Although it appears to be solid on human […]
MSE Grace Hopper Lecture: “Optics on the Nanoscale: Conquering Absorption with Nonlinear Optics”
Optical nanostructures enable molding the flow of light on the subwavelength scale rendering possible the realization of compact, cost-effective, flat and highly efficient optical components for imaging, spectroscopy, sensing, and […]
