PSOC Seminar : “Using mechanics to understand liver cancer models”
MEAM Seminar: “Scalable Fabrication of Nanostructured Energy Storage Systems”
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
The demand for autonomous devices, including intelligent sensor platforms for IOT applications, is driving a parallel need for efficient energy storage systems that are inexpensive to produce, exhibit high power and energy densities, and occupy a minimum footprint on the device. Necessary enhancement in the performance of batteries and supercapacitors can be realized by fabrication […]
ESE Seminar: “2D Materials for Unconventional Devices: From Flexible/Wearable Tattoo Sensors to Monolayer Memory”
/
PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor
3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Abstract: This talk will present our latest research adventures on 2D nanomaterials towards greater scientific understanding and advanced engineering applications. In particular the talk will highlight our work on flexible electronics, zero-power devices, monolayer memory (atomristors), non-volatile RF switches, and wearable tattoo sensors. Non-volatile memory devices based on 2D materials are an application of defects […]
Cultivating Cultures of Ethical STEM: Institutional Transformation and Industrial Research Approaches and Findings
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
This two-part talk will describe the scope of work and emergent findings of two ongoing National Science Foundation Cultivating Cultures of Ethical STEM (CCESTEM) projects. Each project seeks to provide strategies for the design, assessment, and research of learners’ ethical formation. The first project, an Institutional Transformation CCESTEM project (Award #1737157), seeks to utilize Faculty […]
BE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: Human organ-on-chip systems for the study of biomechanical forces in health and disease

MEAM Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Problems in Nonlinear Homogenization: Bounds, Estimates, Macroscopic Instabilities, and Post-Bifurcation Response”
/
Towne 309
220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
This talk is concerned with the use of nonlinear homogenization to study the effective response of composites. We look to illustrate the effect that constitutive assumptions have on the methods by which such estimates can be obtained, as well as on the actual effective, or homogenized, response of the material. Although helpful in ensuring existence […]
PSOC Seminar : “Lessons from the Liver: From Chromosome Segregation to Tissue Regeneration”
/
PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor
3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
CBE Seminar: “Examining Heterogeneous Populations of Microbes at the Single Cell Level Using Stabilized Emulsions”
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Abstract: Conventional methods in microbiology can be limited by long assay execution and analysis times, large reagent volumes, and high single-use supply costs. These limitations can be overcome using drop-based microfluidics in which picoliter-sized, water-in-oil emulsions serve as independent microreactors, allowing for the compartmentalization of microbes and high-throughput assaying at the single cell level. Here, […]
MSE Special Seminar: “What They Don’t Teach You in School that You Need to Succeed in Life”
/
Glandt Forum, Singh Center for Nanotechnology
3205 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
MSE Seminar: “Science and Applications of Topological Photonics across the Electromagnetic Spectrum”
/
Auditorium, LRSM Building
3231 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
The 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Kosterlitz, Thouless, and Haldane for their pioneering theoretical work on the novel and counter-intuitive phases of matter that are now referred to as topological phases. Almost half a century after these researchers applied powerful mathematical techniques of topology to condensed matter systems, a new rapidly developing […]
ESE Seminar: “Information Security for the Connected World”
/
PICS Conference Room 534 - A Wing , 5th Floor
3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Abstract: An all-wireless vision connecting billions of devices is finally in sight with the Internet-of-Everything paradigm. This vision entails large networks with dynamic connectivity, ad hoc formation and heterogeneous nodes. Central to be able to integrate all our lives to this massive virtual domain is security and privacy of the information that flows through it. […]
EWaste Collection
/
Lobby and Mezzanine, Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
We will be collecting EWASTE items in Levine Lobby on Tuesday in support of Energy Week @ Penn campaign. This is a great opportunity to properly recycle non-traditional items such as: computers & printers computer accessories (keyboards, mice) Monitors, TVs, Displays Mobile phones household electronics (anything with a plug!) light bulbs non-recyclable glass
