MEAM Seminar: “Multiscale Mechano-Medicine: from Mechanobiology to Tissue-Interfacing Stimulating Medical Devices”
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Many human health problems are associated with alteration of tissue mechanics and often require mechanical stimulation to promote the healing process. While it is now well established that the mechanics […]

MSE Seminar: “Engineering 2D Quantum Materials with Atomic Precision” (University of California – Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)
/
Glandt Forum, Singh Center for Nanotechnology
3205 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer a rich platform for studying quantum phenomena, because their properties can be profoundly altered through heterostructure stacking and defect manipulation, while the resulting electronic and magnetic […]

ESE Spring Seminar – “Agile Robot Autonomy”
/
Raisler Lounge (Room 225), Towne Building
220 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Quadcopters are among the most agile and dynamic machines ever created. In this talk, I’ll show how data-driven sensorimotor controllers can push quadcopters with only onboard sensing and computation to […]

CIS Seminar: “Collaborative, Communal, & Continual Machine Learning”
/
Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Pre-trained models have become a cornerstone of machine learning thanks to the fact that they can provide improved performance with less labeled data on downstream tasks. However, these models are […]
