SUMMARY:PSOC@Penn Seminar: "Harnessing Biochemistry and Engineering to Visualize Metabolism" (Kayvan R. Keshari)
DESCRIPTION:Oncogenic transformation has been shown to have a dramatic impact on the metabolic state of the cell. Recent reports have demonstrated that specific alterations in oncogenes and signaling pathways results in increases in pathway flux as well as diversion of substrates. Moreover\, there is an argument that changes in metabolism can directly affect cell fate and thus promote oncogenesis. Interrogation of these pathways in relevant systems has been hindered though by lack of technologies capable of monitoring metabolism. Hyperpolarized magnetic resonance addresses a fundamental limitation of MRI for interrogating metabolic substrates\, sensitivity. Using this approach\, endogenous metabolic substrates can be converted into imaging probes to follow metabolic reactions in living systems. Utilizing this imaging as well as a wide range of biochemical tools and engineering approaches\, one can develop strategies to mechanistically interrogate metabolic flux. This talk will focus on the combination of such approaches\, demonstrating the synergy of new probes and platforms\, to reveal metabolic mechanisms as well as their translation to humans.

SUMMARY:MEAM Seminar: "Active Colloids in Nematics for Micro-robotics and Reconfigurable Systems"
DESCRIPTION:Active colloids in nematic liquid crystals are exciting vehicles for materials manipulation. Colloid shape\, surface chemistry and dynamic displacement can be designed to introduce defects whose non-linear dynamics generate new modalities of motion and interaction. These effects rely on energy conversion mechanisms\, in which active colloids with tailored surface functionalization and shape seed defects and distortions in the nematic liquid crystal domain. Once the colloid moves\, e.g.\, under the action of an external field\, these defects undergo complex\, non-linear rearrangements with implications for colloid motion. Interactions emerge that differ strikingly in range and form from their static counterparts. I describe our current state of understanding of these systems\, their application and our vision for future work in the domain. These interactions provide a rich toolkit for hybrid top-down\, bottom-up assembly schemes in which microrobots based on active nematic colloids exploit these far-from-equilibrium topological structures as tools for micro-robotic tasks including building and reconfiguring structures.

SUMMARY:CBE Seminar: “Engineering the Crystallization of Water Using Molecular and Biomolecular Agents”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nThe crystallization of water affects various processes\, both globally and in our daily lives. Ice crystals cause freezing and death when they grow in the extracellular fluids of organisms living in sub-freezing conditions. Similarly\, the formation of gas hydrates in flowlines transporting gas/oil causing safety and economic risks\, and the release of methane from gas hydrates to the atmosphere contributing to global warming. Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are evolution’s answer to the problem of freezing in organisms\, and some synthetic inhibitors of gas hydrates are currently in use. However\, the mechanisms by which these natural and synthetic inhibitors work remain largely unclear. \nMy lab is using a unique combination of cold-stages (millikelvin resolution)\, fluorescence microscopy and microfluidics to study the effects of molecular agents on the crystallization of water. In my talk\, I will describe how AFPs: a) bind to ice and inhibit its growth\, b) synergistically enhance their activity\, and c) accelerate and inhibit ice growth. I will then present our work with a synthetic dye molecule that assembles in solution and forms supramolecular assemblies that inhibit both ice and clathrate hydrates. \n

SUMMARY:Global Discovery Series: Climate Change and Cities
DESCRIPTION:Professor Michael Weisberg\, Director of Post-Graduate Programs at the Perry World House\, and Perry World House Visiting Fellow and Penn Alumna Lolita Jackson talk about the impacts of climate change at the municipal level. While vastly different in scale\, New York City and the Galápagos Town of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno (population 8000)\, the towns in which they have worked for many years\, face similar threats: sea level rise\, increased flooding from storms\, and population growth. They also face the challenge of having their needs prioritized in the national and international arena. Join us for a lively conversation about climate change and these two cities. \nThis event is sponsored by Penn Alumni and Penn Engineering.

SUMMARY:MSE David P. Pope Distinguished Lecture: "Skin-Inspired Organic Electronics"
DESCRIPTION:Skin is the body’s largest organ\, and is responsible for the transduction of a vast amount of information. This conformable\, stretchable\, self-healable and biodegradable material simultaneously collects signals from external stimuli that translate into information such as pressure\, pain\, and temperature. The development of electronic materials\, inspired by the complexity of this organ is a tremendous\, unrealized materials challenge. However\, the advent of organic-based electronic materials may offer a potential solution to this longstanding problem. Over the past decade\, we have developed materials design concepts to add skin-like functions to organic electronic materials without compromising their electronic properties. These new materials and new devices enabled arrange of new applications in medical devices\, robotics and wearable electronics. In this talk\, Dr. Bao will discuss basic material design concepts for realizing stretchable\, self-healable and biodegradable conductive or semiconductive materials. She will show our methods for scalable fabrication of stretchable electronic circuit blocks. Finally\, she will show a few examples of applications we are pursuing uniquely enabled by skin-like organic electronics when interfacing with biological systems\, such as low-voltage electrical stimulation\, high-resolution large area electrophysiology\, “morphing electronics” that grows with biological system and genetically targeted chemical assembly – GTCA.

SUMMARY:Sustainability and the Building Environment:  Building Materials and Cooling Strategies that Combat a Warming Planet
DESCRIPTION:Air conditioning today accounts for nearly 20% of the total electricity used in buildings around the world and over 10% of the total primary energy use in the US. Already a major contributor to climate change\, cooling energy demand is predicted to significantly increase over the next decades with urbanization\, population growth and global warming. Heat stress is a major environmental justice concern\, dis-proportionally impacting disadvantaged communities. We must find sustainable and equitable cooling alternatives to replace current building practices which only exacerbate the environmental crisis. \nThe webinar will include an overview of research by Penn faculty members on alternative low-energy cooling strategies and innovative building materials inspired by nature. This will be followed by case-studies of built projects presented by industry leaders in the field.

SUMMARY:PICS Colloquium: "How reproducible is your research?"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Each year vast international resources are wasted on irreproducible research. The scientific community has been slow to adopt standard software engineering practices\, despite the increases in high-dimensional data\, complexities of workflows\, and computational environments. Here we show how scientific software applications can be created in a reproducible manner when simple design goals for reproducibility are met. We describe the implementation of a test server framework and 40 scientific benchmarks\, covering numerous applications in Rosetta bio-macromolecular modeling. High performance computing cluster integration allows these benchmarks to run continuously and automatically. Detailed protocol captures are useful for developers and users of Rosetta and other macromolecular modeling tools. The framework and design concepts presented here are valuable for developers and users of any type of scientific software and for the scientific community to create reproducible methods. Specific examples highlight the utility of this framework\, and the comprehensive documentation illustrates the ease of adding new tests in a matter of hours.
