April 19, 2022 -ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Extracting Generalizable Hierarchical Patterns of Functional Connectivity in the Brain”
Tedori-Callinan Distinguished Lecture: “Multiscale Hierarchical Modeling and Thermal Management of Electrification Technologies”
Core electrification technologies require developments in battery packs, chargers, electric motors, and thermal management strategies to improve their performance, longevity, reliability and safety. The next battery technology leap relies on novel thermal management strategies and packaging architectures, realized as intelligent battery thermal management systems (BTMS), which can optimally control the thermo-electrochemical phenomena occurring inside the […]
ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Extracting Generalizable Hierarchical Patterns of Functional Connectivity in the Brain”
The study of the functional organization of the human brain using resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) has been of significant interest in cognitive neuroscience for over two decades. The functional organization is characterized by patterns that are believed to be hierarchical in nature. From a clinical context, studying these patterns has become important for understanding various […]

Spring 2022 GRASP SFI: Stefanie Tellex, Brown University, “Towards Complex Language in Partially Observed Environments”
*This will be a HYBRID Event with in-person attendance in Levine 512 and Virtual attendance via Zoom Robots can act as a force multiplier for people, whether a robot assisting an astronaut with a repair on the International Space station, a UAV taking flight over our cities, or an autonomous vehicle driving through our streets. Existing […]
CBE Seminar: “Design of Advanced Functional Surfaces Using Oxygen-Tolerant Photopolymerization”
Abstract The covalent attachment of polymers has emerged as a powerful strategy for the preparation of multi-functional surfaces. Patterned, surface-grafted polymer brushes provide spatial control over a variety of physical properties and allow for fabrication of ‘intelligent’ substrates which selectively adapt to their environment. This presentation describes recent advances in our group in using photolithography […]

MSE Seminar: “Multiphoton Microscopy for Imaging Deeper, Wider, and Faster”
Multiphoton microscopy has changed how we visualize neurons by providing high-resolution, non-invasive imaging capability deep within intact brain tissue. Multiphoton imaging will likely play a major role in understanding how the brain works at the level of neural circuits. In this talk, in vivo structural and functional imaging of mouse brain using long wavelength excitation […]
BE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Engineering injectable, radiopaque hydrogels for X-ray imaging and therapeutic delivery for cancer treatments” (Clara Dong)
The Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. David Cormode are pleased to announce the Doctoral Dissertation Defense of Clara Dong. Title: Engineering injectable, radiopaque hydrogels for X-ray imaging and therapeutic delivery for cancer treatments Date: 4/21 1pm Location: Zoom https://upenn.zoom.us/j/91096994943?pwd=TVh5UFltSlBHTXJ6blp4VFlRbTNUdz09 The public is welcome to attend.
MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Some Investigations of Phase Transitions in Rod-like Macro-molecules and Fibrous Gels”
Two problems pertaining to solid-solid phase transitions are presented here. First, we conduct Langevin dynamics calculations on a chain of masses and bistable springs in a viscous fluid, and extract a temperature dependent kinetic relation by observing that the dissipation at a phase boundary can be estimated by performing an energy balance. Using this kinetic […]

April 22, 2022 -Bioengineering Graduate Research Symposium
GRASP on Robotics: Katherine Kuchenbecker, Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, “Haptics and Physical Human-Robot Interaction”
A haptic interface is a mechatronic system that modulates the physical interaction between a human and their tangible surroundings. Such systems typically take the form of grounded kinesthetic devices, ungrounded wearable devices, or surface devices, and they enable the user to act on and feel a remote or virtual environment. I will elucidate key approaches […]
