October 31, 2023 -CIS Seminar: “Modeling Atoms to Address Our Climate Crisis”
MEAM Seminar: “Hardware / Controls Co-design to Overcome Challenges for Aerial Robots”
Aerial robotics have become ubiquitous, but (like most robots) they still struggle to operate at high speed in unstructured, cramped environments. By considering a vehicle's mechanical design simultaneously with the design of controls and automation algorithms, we have more degrees of freedoms to find creative solutions to problems. In this talk I will present some […]
CIS Seminar: “Modeling Atoms to Address Our Climate Crisis”
Climate change is a societal and political problem whose impact could be mitigated by technology. Underlying many of its technical challenges is a surprisingly simple yet challenging problem; modeling the interaction of atoms. In this talk, we motivate the problem and provide insights into how this opens up new intriguing directions for machine learning and […]

November 1, 2023 -CBE Seminar: “Structure-Independent Peptide Binder Design via Generative Language Models” (Chatterjee, Duke University)
ASSET Seminar: “Copyright, Machine Learning Research, and the Generative-AI Supply Chain” (A. Feder Cooper, Cornell University)
ABSTRACT: “Does generative AI infringe copyright?” is an urgent question. It is also a difficult question, for two reasons. First, “generative AI” is not just one product from one company. It is a catch-all name for a massive ecosystem of loosely related technologies. These systems behave differently and raise different legal issues. Second, copyright law […]
Fall 2023 GRASP SFI: E. Farrell Helbling, Cornell University, “Autonomy for insect-scale robots”
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Countless science fiction works have set our expectations for small, mobile, autonomous robots for use in a broad range of applications. The ability to move through highly dynamic and complex environments can expand capabilities in search and rescue […]
CBE Seminar: “Structure-Independent Peptide Binder Design via Generative Language Models” (Chatterjee, Duke University)
The ability to modulate pathogenic proteins represents a powerful treatment strategy for diseases. Unfortunately, many proteins are considered "undruggable" by small molecules, and are often intrinsically disordered, precluding the usage of structure-based tools for binder design. To address these challenges, we have developed a suite of algorithms that enable the design of target-specific peptides via […]

November 2, 2023 -MSE Seminar: “Nonlinear and Topological Quantum Photonics” University of Central Florida
MSE Seminar: “Nonlinear and Topological Quantum Photonics” University of Central Florida
In this talk we will discuss how to engineer the dispersion relation of photonic platforms to provide robust propagation of classical and quantum states of light. In the first part of this talk, we will unveil how to leverage the interaction of nonlinearity with higher orders of dispersion to create novel types of solitons, wave […]

November 3, 2023 -PICS Colloquium: “Micro-organism Locomotion in Viscoelastic Fluids”
Fall 2023 GRASP on Robotics: Julie Shah, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, “Effective Human-Machine Partnerships in High Stakes Settings”
This is a HYRBID event with a VIRTUAL SPEAKER. The GRASP on Robotics Seminar will be streamed for in-person attendees in Wu and Chen and virtual attendees may join the talk via Zoom. ABSTRACT Every team has top performers -- people who excel at working in a team to find the right solutions in complex, difficult […]
PICS Colloquium: “Micro-organism Locomotion in Viscoelastic Fluids”
Many microorganisms and cells function in complex (non-Newtonian) fluids, which are mixtures of different materials that exhibit both viscous and elastic stresses. For example, mammalian sperm swim through cervical mucus on their journey through the female reproductive tract, and they must penetrate the viscoelastic gel outside the ovum to fertilize. In micro-scale swimming the dynamics […]
