BE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “The roles of YAP and TAZ in fetal bone development” (Joseph Collins)
/
CRB Auditorium
415 Curie Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA, United States
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Joel Boerckel are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Joseph Collins. Title: The roles of YAP […]
MEAM Seminar: “Semantic Localization, Mapping, and Exploration by Multiple Aerial Robots”
/
Moore 212
Traditional approaches for active mapping focus on building geometric maps. For most real-world applications, however, actionable information is related to semantically meaningful objects in the environment. We propose an approach […]

The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Dennis Discher are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Brandon Hayes. Title: Macrophages & chromosomal instability: From […]
MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Transport and Mixing with Swimming Microorganisms in Chaotic Flows”
/
Moore 212
Microorganisms, primitive unicellular forms of life, form the basis of the food web and play crucial roles in the Earth's biogeochemical cycles. Habitats of microorganisms, from oceans and lakes to […]
ESE PhD Thesis Defense: “Discrete and Continuous Optimization for Collaborative and Multi-task Learning”
/
Room 452 C, 3401 Walnut
3401 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
