Architected plates feature geometrical patterns that provide advantageous mechanical properties, such as an enhanced bending stiffness or a reduced tendency to tear. In this talk I will introduce our research […]
Applications are increasingly data-intensive and bound by the performance of the memory and/or storage system. This “memory wall” arises from several factors: the volume of data is increasing exponentially, outstripping […]
Abstract: "Efforts have been devoted to understanding the upgrading of plant-based biomass waste into useful chemicals to replace the current petrochemical production. An extensive amount of work has been accomplished […]
Launched in May 2021, the Future Leaders in Mechanobiology is a monthly seminar series featuring up-and-coming leaders in mechanobiology–PhD students and postdocs from a wide range of fields, backgrounds, and institutions. By […]

*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance for Dr. Malikopoulos’ in-person talk in Wu & Chen Auditorium and Virtual attendance via Zoom Webinar here. Geometric perception is the […]
Piezoelectricity is the intrinsic coupling between electric fields and strains in materials. While piezoelectric sensors, actuators, and RF filters are ubiquitous and important components of existing microsystems, their potential is […]
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Despina Kontos are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Rhea Chitalia. Title: "Computational imaging biomarkers for precision […]
This seminar will be held live and broadcast on zoom – link coming soon. Neural engineering is enjoying an era of transformative growth. Classical methods that dominated the neurosciences for […]
Can we use cryptography to protect data while simultaneously enabling computation over it? Such cryptosystems have the potential to enable all of the amazing benefits of cloud computing without forcing […]
Self-assembled materials with defined nanoscale architectures can engage with biological systems in fundamentally new ways, providing unprecedented biomedical opportunities. In particular, the ability to more precisely control both the location […]
The ability to predict, design and make the perfect material with just the right properties to do what we want, how we want, and when we want is the holy […]
