When agents have correlated preferences, popular options can attract too much demand, reduce overall efficiency, and lead to poor market outcomes. In this\u0026nbsp;talk, I will present a framework for two-sided assortment optimization that studies how a platform should decide which options to display to agents and in what order, with the goal of improving matching performance. The main focus will be on maximizing the expected number of matches under general choice models. I will describe several natural classes of platform policies, ranging from static simultaneous displays to fully adaptive sequential policies, and compare their power through adaptivity gap results. I will also discuss polynomial-time approximation algorithms for computing near-optimal policies, and then briefly discuss the revenue-maximization version of the problem, where matches generate pair-dependent rewards. This\u0026nbsp;talk\u0026nbsp;is based on joint works with Alfredo Torrico, Ulysse Hennebelle, and Mohammadreza Ahmadnejadsaein.\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003EOmar El Housni is an Assistant Professor in the School of Operations Research and Information Engineering at Cornell Tech and Cornell University.

Traditional regression models and Gaussian process (GP) approaches with fixed parametric kernels often fail to model such complex data effectively while maintaining scalability and interpretability. This talk introduces a family of modern Bayesian GP frameworks that integrate deep kernel learning, neural network priors, and geometric modeling for large-scale neuroimaging analysis. An example is the Deep Kernel Learning Process (DKLP), which embeds deep neural networks within GP priors to learn data-adaptive covariance structures directly from imaging data. DKLP provides a unified modeling foundation for image-on-scalar, scalar-on-image, and image-on-image regression, supported by theoretical guarantees and efficient posterior computation. Applications to fMRI data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study reveal reproducible cortical activation patterns associated with cognitive ability, while analyses of EEG-based brain\u2013computer interface data demonstrate robust neural decoding under high noise. I will also discuss scalable heat-kernel GPs on manifolds and thresholded GP\u2013based spatially varying neural network priors, which together expand the scope of Bayesian inference for complex neuroimaging data.\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003EDr. Jian Kang is Professor and Associate Chair for Research in the Department of Biostatistics at the University of Michigan.

Our team has been studying fungi for drug leads effective in the fight against cancer, with an emphasis on ovarian cancer, and this presentation will peer into two different chapters of that ongoing story. The verticillins are potent, cytotoxic leads, first discovered over 50 years ago. Our emphasis has been on amplifying their supply, generating semisynthetic analogues, understanding their mechanism of action, and optimizing their delivery. In contrast, wheldone is a molecule that we first described recently. Interestingly, it is only biosynthesized via the antagonism of two fungi fighting for limited resources in co-culture. We\u2019ve spent considerable effort developing ways to supply this compound on a larger scale, as the scale up of fungal co-cultures is not discussed in the literature. We\u2019ve also probed its mode of action and are starting to generate semisynthetic analogues. In sum total, this presentation will provide a glimpse into how natural products drug discovery from fungi is carried out in the modern research setting.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ENicholas Oberlies received his B.S. in Chemistry from Miami University (Oxford, Ohio) in 1992 and his Ph.D. in Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacognosy from Purdue University (West Lafayette, Indiana) in 1997, where he studied under Professor Jerry L.

Archaea and bacteria oxidize most of the methane that diffuses upward from vast reservoirs beneath the seafloor before it can reach the atmosphere. In this seminar, I will present recent findings from our lab on the role of microbes and their proteins on methane and methanol cycling in three habitats: under the seafloor, in a deep brine pool, and in the surface ocean. First, I will highlight our discovery of methane hydrate binding proteins made by subseafloor bacteria, and how collaboration with GT biochemists enabled characterization of these novel proteins that are only found in bacteria that inhabit deep seafloor sediments rich in methane. Second, I will present our recent study of marine archaea that prevent leakage of methane out of a deep anoxic salt pond on the seafloor of the Gulf of Mexico. Third, I will highlight our discovery of Methylaequorales, an uncultivated order of alphaproteobacteria that are highly active in the surface ocean and use lanthanide-requiring enzymes to grow on methanol. Despite recent progress, we have barely scratched the surface of knowledge of the biochemical repertoire of microbial proteins, particularly those from habitats rarely visited by humans, and the need for fundamental science to uncover the chemical potential of environmental microbes is stronger than ever.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Chemistry \u0026amp; Biochemistry - Seminar Series\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"School of Chemistry \u0026 Biochemistry - Seminar Series"}],"uid":"35342","created_gmt":"2026-07-27 15:57:10","changed_gmt":"2026-07-27 16:01:14","author":"mcurtis41","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-09-17T15:30:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-09-17T16:30:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-09-17T16:30:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-09-17 19:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-09-17 20:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-09-17 20:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"EBB Kron 1005","extras":[],"hg_media":{"680676":{"id":"680676","type":"image","title":"Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","body":null,"created":"1785167839","gmt_created":"2026-07-27 15:57:19","changed":"1785167839","gmt_changed":"2026-07-27 15:57:19","alt":"J Glass","file":{"fid":"264967","name":"Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/2026\/07\/27\/Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/2026\/07\/27\/Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":179011,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/2026\/07\/27\/Prof.-Jennifer-Glass---2-.jpg?itok=ZlQseyPw"}}},"media_ids":["680676"],"groups":[{"id":"85951","name":"School of Chemistry and Biochemistry"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"177814","name":"Postdoc"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EHost: Neha Garg\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"691180":{"#nid":"691180","#data":{"type":"event","title":"X-Ray Safety Training","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EX-Ray safety training is required prior to operating an x-ray machine and is comprised of a 2-hour classroom training.
