ABSTRACT: Electrochemical processes are vital for global decarbonization efforts because they are central to many energy-efficient storage and conversion technologies and can also be leveraged for large scale chemical manufacturing. […]
Abstract Neuro-symbolic AI presents tremendous opportunities for more efficient foundation models in the form of integrating classical symbolic methods with deep learning. However, that integration is faced with several key […]
Abstract: Bulk nanostructured materials offer tremendous opportunity for re-inventing materials, but also pose challenges both in terms of characterization, design, processing, and scaling. This talk will present recent work developing […]

Artificial intelligence and machine learning have become important components of the computational toolbox that can be used to advance chemical research and discovery. Our group has been working on advancing […]
Abstract: During cardiovascular development, peristaltic contraction of the embryonic heart tube produces time-varying hemodynamic forces and pressure gradients across the atrioventricular canal. However, the relative importance of myocardial contraction and […]
From autonomous vehicles navigating busy intersections to quadrupeds deployed in household environments, robots must operate safely and efficiently around people in uncertain and unstructured situations. However, today's robots still struggle […]
Preventing injury and restoring mobility following injury, both musculoskeletal and neuromuscular, is challenging. In recent years, the fields of biomechanics and clinical rehabilitation have informed the development of wearable devices […]
Robots are traditionally designed with fixed physical hardware and control policies that make them specialized for repetitive tasks and structured environments. This talk discusses foundational work toward robots that "evolve […]
TITLE: The quantum properties of molecular interfaces Abstract: Weakly bonded interfaces composed by molecular and solid-state inorganic materials give rise to a rich variety of nuclear motion and tunable nuclear […]
Efficient and resilient coordination among autonomous agents plays an important role in various domains such as energy management, robotic swarms, autonomous vehicles and beyond. As these systems grow in complexity […]
