    MEAM Seminar: “Multiplying the Coolness of Gels: Messy Networks, Double Networks, and More”

    November 18, 2025 @ 10:15 AM - 11:15 AM /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Many materials we eat, spread, squeeze, or 3D print are gels, soft amorphous solids whose solid component comprises self-assembled networks of particles, fibers, or agglomerates of proteins, polymers, and colloids. […]

    ESE Fall Seminar – “Developing Custom Portable Low-Field MRI for Point-of-Care Imaging”

    November 18, 2025 @ 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM /
    Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    MRI remains the gold standard in neuroimaging, but its high costs, large footprint, and infrastructure requirements limit deployment in many settings—including intensive care units (ICUs), emergency vehicles, and neonatal intensive […]

    Penn AI Presents: “How Brains and Machines Solve the Binding Problem”

    November 18, 2025 @ 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM /
    Amy Gutmann Hall, Room 414 3333 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, United States

    Despite decades of research, we still do not know how the brain integrates the many features of an object into a coherent whole, or whether artificial systems perform similar binding. […]

    CIS Seminar: “Diffusion Generative Models for Non-Euclidean Data”

    November 18, 2025 @ 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM /
    Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    As a major powerhorse for generative AI, diffusion models have demonstrated great successes in Euclidean spaces, such as for generating images and videos. This talk, on the other hand, will […]

    MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Mechanical Behavior and Fracture of Fibrous Materials at Large Deformations”

    November 19, 2025 @ 10:30 AM - 11:30 AM /
    Towne 227 (MEAM Conference Room) 220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    The mechanical behavior of fiber network materials is characterized by large deformations before failure and a strain-stiffening stress-strain response. In this thesis, this is investigated using discrete simulations at the […]

    Wednesday Nov 19

    ASSET Seminar: “Testing AI’s Implicit World Models”

    November 19, 2025 @ 12:00 PM - 1:15 PM /
    Amy Gutmann Hall, Room 414 3333 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, United States

    Many of the robustness properties that are required for real-world applications of AI would be realized by a model that has understood the world. But it is unclear how to […]

    Wednesday Nov 19

    Fall 2025 GRASP SFI: Wei Wang, University of Wisconsin–Madison, “Toward Advanced Autonomy in Complex Aquatic Environments”

    November 19, 2025 @ 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM /
    Levine 307 3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance via Zoom.  ABSTRACT Marine robots have undergone significant growth, driven by recent advances in artificial intelligence, […]

    MSE PhD Thesis Defense: “Rheology and Clogging Study of Filamentous Suspensions: Bridging Microscopic Dynamics and Macroscopic Behaviors” 

    November 20, 2025 @ 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM /
    Towne 337

    Suspensions of filamentous materials, or filamentous suspensions, represent a unique class of complex fluids in which the interplay between particle anisotropy and filament interactions – both intra- and inter-filament associations –gives […]

    FOLDS seminar: Function Space Perspectives on Neural Networks

    November 20, 2025 @ 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM /
    Amy Gutmann Hall, Room 414 3333 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, United States

    Zoom link: https://upenn.zoom.us/j/98220304722   This talk reviews a theory of the functions learned by neural networks with Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) activations. At its core is the observation that deep ReLU […]

    Thursday Nov 20

    MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Exploring Self-Assembly of 2D Materials: Insights from Graphene Auto-Kirigami”

    November 20, 2025 @ 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM /
    Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building 220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    In nature, thin sheets bend, fold, and curve to create functional three-dimensional forms—from insect wings to leaves and flower petals. Over the past decades, such behavior has inspired engineered systems […]
