The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. D. Kacy Cullen are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Dayo Adewole. Title: Microtissue Engineered Neural Networks […]
Wide bandgap electronics are currently under development due to their potential to create some of the most advanced RF and power electronics in the world. A key concern in their […]
Abstract: In this talk, we will cover some exciting progress on the problem of Indistinguishability Obfuscation (proposed by Barak et. al. 2001). In a nutshell, an Indistinguishability Obfuscation scheme is […]
Abstract Biological molecules rarely act alone. For example, in many pediatric cancers, a chromosomal rearrangement results in a fusion protein with altered DNA and protein interactions that yield proliferative and […]
The recent growth of data science has expanded its reach to an ever-growing user base of non-experts. Unfortunately, most existing systems offer limited usability and support for explanations: these systems […]
Abstract: Homo Sapiens is considered a “hyper-cooperative species,” and this aptitude for cooperation may be responsible for our dominance over the Earth. Cooperation promises great benefits, but each participant is vulnerable […]
Racism and anti-Blackness are crises that jeopardize our democracy, productivity and well-being and call into question whether we can all live together peaceably and harmoniously in a just and equitable […]
Endogenous tissue-specific stem cells are crucial regulators of tissue health throughout life, orchestrating diverse functions ranging from learning and cognition to skeletal muscle homeostasis. The local microenvironment, or stem cell […]
Emerging applications such as smart cities, autonomous vehicles, and mixed reality rely on embedded systems that are engaging with the physical environment through sensors. Building upon this connection, my vision […]
This event will be held virtually via Zoom (check email or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu). Human diseases are fundamentally multicellular in nature with many different cell types contributing to disease progression and […]
In the past decade, systems that use probabilistic proofs in real-world applications have seen explosive growth. These systems build upon some of the crown jewels of theoretical computer science---interactive proofs, […]
Don’t isolate. Congregate! Join Penn Engineering’s Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to meet six dynamic men and learn about how their bonds of friendship and NSBE affiliation benefited them […]
