MSE Grace Hopper Lecture: “Quantum Simulations for Quantum Technologies,” (Giulia Galli – University of Chicago)
In this talk, I will describe theoretical and computational strategies based on quantum mechanical calculations, aimed at predicting material properties suitable for the development of quantum technologies. Specifically, I will […]
MSE David P. Pope Distinguished Lecture: “Light, Materials and Interfaces: The Complex Dance That Allows CLIP-based 3D Printing,” Stanford University
Abstract The production of polymer products relies largely on age-old molding techniques. A major reason for this is that additive methods have not delivered meaningful alternatives to traditional processes—until now. […]
MSE Seminar: “Nanomaterials Enable Delivery of Genetic Material Without Transgene Integration in Mature Plants” University of California – Berkeley
Genetic engineering of plants is at the core of sustainability efforts, natural product synthesis, and agricultural crop engineering. The plant cell wall is a barrier that limits the ease and […]
BE Seminar: “Engineering the cell-matrix interface – understanding and guiding cell function” (Claudia Loebel, University of Michigan)
The native extracellular microenvironment dynamically remodels as cells synthesize, assemble, and remodel their surroundings during tissue development, injury, and repair. In my research group, we use engineered systems to both […]
Penn American Red Cross Blood Drive
There is currently a critical need for blood donors, and members of the Penn Engineering community are invited to participate in a school-wide blood drive. To join in this effort, […]
