MEAM Seminar: “Bringing Microrobots into Biomedicine”
Recent progress in diverse disciplines such as soft matter physics, nanoparticle synthesis, nanomedicine, and microbiology has enabled rich opportunities for translation of small-scale robots into medical applications. These robotic systems are providing innovative, high-precision, therapeutic and diagnostic approaches for the treatment of diseases associated with microbial biofilms and are rapidly moving from proof-of-concept studies to […]
CIS Seminar: “An Alternative View on AI: Collaborative Learning, Incentives, and Social Welfare”
Artificial intelligence (AI) has focused on a paradigm in which intelligence inheres in a single, autonomous agent. Social issues are entirely secondary in this paradigm. When AI systems are deployed in social contexts, however, the overall design of such systems is often naive---a centralized entity provides services to passive agents and reaps the rewards. Such […]

ASSET Seminar: “Towards Code-Aware Code Models” (Baishakhi Ray, Columbia University)
ABSTRACT: The past decade has seen unprecedented growth in Software Engineering— developers spend enormous time and effort to create new products. With such enormous growth comes the responsibility of producing and maintaining quality and robust software. In this talk, I will discuss how AI can help develop quality products in different stages of the software […]
Fall 2023 GRASP SFI: Helmut Hauser, University of Bristol, “Morphological Computation – Building Smart Bodies for Smart Robots”
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. This week's speaker will be virtual. ABSTRACT Morphological Computation is a concept in robotics that suggests that the morphology of a robot should play a crucial role in the design of intelligent machines. This is inspired by observations in […]

October 12, 2023 -ESE PhD Thesis Defense: “Light matter interaction in low-dimensional semiconductors”
ESE PhD Thesis Defense: “Light matter interaction in low-dimensional semiconductors”
Light matter interaction holds significant relevance across a range of applications including lasing, sensing, communications, and computing. One prominent method for modulating optical properties is through the use of a Fabry-Perot cavity, which controls the photonic density of states within optical cavities. Additionally, plasmonic and high-contrast dielectric cavities represent a cutting-edge approach for photonic dispersion […]
