Combining physics with machine learning is a rapidly growing field of research. Thereby, most work focuses on leveraging machine learning methods to solve problems in physics. Here, however, we focus […]
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Despina Kontos are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Apurva Singh. Title: "Computational imaging and multiomic biomarkers for […]
Computers can be programmed for superhuman pattern recognition of images and text; however, their application in biology and medicine is still in its infancy. In this talk, I will discuss […]
The predominant paradigm in deep learning practice treats neural networks as "black boxes". This leads to economic and environmental costs as brute-force scaling remains the performance driver, and to safety […]
ABSTRACT: As predictive and generative models are increasingly being deployed in various high-stakes applications in critical domains including healthcare, law, policy and finance, it becomes important to ensure that relevant […]
This will be a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT With rapid evolution of sensing, communication, and computation, integrating learning and control […]
Abstract The demand for viral vectors is poised to soon exceed current production capacities, driven by the surging number of clinical trials for gene and cell therapies. Unfortunately, current manufacturing […]
Computation and machine learning hold tremendous potential to improve the quality and capabilities of imaging methods used across science, medicine, engineering, and art. Despite their impressive performance on benchmark datasets, […]
Dr. Lu will introduce a fluorescence molecular imaging method to track therapeutic antibody delivery from cancer patients in vivo, down to single cells, through first-in-human clinical trials. She will present […]
The ever-increasing scale of foundation models, such as ChatGPT and AlphaFold, has revolutionized AI and science more generally. However, increasing scale also steadily raises computational barriers, blocking almost everyone from […]
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Wu and Chen and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT With the recent advances in sensing, actuation, computation, and communication, the deployment […]
Abstract: Great advances have been made in encapsulation of (biological) analytes at extremely high throughput via techniques such as microfluidics and/or conjugation. In parallel, analytical techniques such as mass spectrometry […]
