In this talk, I will first present a unified theoretical framework that jointly optimizes watermark\u003Cbr\u003Edesign and detection, characterizing the fundamental trade-off between detectability, false positive control, and text\u003Cbr\u003Edistortion. While this formulation yields sharp optimality insights, it typically requires the LLM provider to implement\u003Cbr\u003Ethe watermark during generation, which has limited its deployment in practice. I will then discuss the reasons\u003Cbr\u003Ebehind this gap, emphasizing stakeholder incentives and real-world deployment constraints. Motivated by these\u003Cbr\u003Echallenges, I will present in-context watermarking, a model-agnostic approach that embeds detectable signals\u003Cbr\u003Ethrough prompts rather than decoding-time access. This perspective suggests that effective watermarking requires\u003Cbr\u003Enot only strong algorithms, but also incentive-aligned designs tailored to practical domains such as peer review\u003Cbr\u003Eand education.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003EYuheng Bu is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of California, Santa\u003Cbr\u003EBarbara.

We systematically study how the degree of\u003Cbr\u003Estochasticity in Markov transitions governs this tradeoff, finding that deterministic transitions converge quickly but\u003Cbr\u003Eaccumulate errors, while stochastic transitions converge more slowly but can achieve better final sample quality.\u003Cbr\u003EThrough an information-theoretic analysis, we show that redundant transitions that symmetrically exchange\u003Cbr\u003Eprobability mass between states can contract sampling errors, providing an error-correcting effect. Motivated by\u003Cbr\u003Ethis insight, we introduce Discrete Churn and Restart Sampling (DCRS), which injects controlled stochasticity by\u003Cbr\u003Ealternating between forward and reverse diffusion.

Our \u201cfast\u003Cbr\u003Ebeamspace transformation\u201d forms B beams from M sensor outputs using a number of operations per sample that\u003Cbr\u003Escales linearly (to within logarithmic factors) with M when B\u223cM . While the narrowband version of this\u003Cbr\u003Etransformation can be performed efficiently with a spatial fast Fourier transform, the broadband setting requires\u003Cbr\u003Ecoherent processing of multiple array snapshots simultaneously. Our algorithm works by taking N samples off of\u003Cbr\u003Eeach of M sensors and encoding the sensor outputs into a set of coefficients using a special non-uniformly spaced\u003Cbr\u003EFourier transform. From these coefficients, each beam is formed by solving a small system of equations that has\u003Cbr\u003EToeplitz structure. The total runtime complexity is O(M log N + B log N ) operations per sample, exhibiting\u003Cbr\u003Eessentially the same scaling as in the narrowband case. Our method offers significantly higher accuracy and lower\u003Cbr\u003Ecomputational complexity than delay-and-sum filtering techniques and significantly higher accuracy and lower\u003Cbr\u003Elatency than standard frequency- domain techniques based on sub-band processing. An additional benefit of the\u003Cbr\u003Eproposed approach is that it allows for a careful error analysis; we give concrete formulas for the bias and variance\u003Cbr\u003Eof the beamformer given the array parameters. We also provide a host of numerical experiments demonstrating the\u003Cbr\u003Ealgorithm\u2019s favorable computational scaling and high accuracy. Finally, we demonstrate how tasks such as\u003Cbr\u003Einterpolating to \u201coff-grid\u201d angles and nulling an interferer are more computationally efficient when performed directly\u003Cbr\u003Ein beamspace.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003ENakul Singh received a bachelor\u2019s degree in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur,\u003Cbr\u003EIndia, in 2022.

The most common biofilm-forming bacteria isolated from chronic wounds are Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Burkholderia pseudomallei is a biofilm-forming pathogen that is endemic to tropical areas such as southeast Asia, and is spreading to other areas including the southern United States. Type I collagen is the most abundant protein in all vertebrates, including humans. We grow biofilms of P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and B. pseudomallei in concentrations of 0%, 10%, and 20% collagen that includes the concentration of collagen found in burns, wounds, and other anatomical sites of biofilm infection.

We find that incorporation of Type I collagen into P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and B. pseudomallei biofilms hinders phagocytosis of biofilm bacteria by human neutrophils, by up to a factor of two.

Gradient-based optimization with adjoint derivatives is suited to this search, but it requires the engine position to be a continuous design variable, while finite-element models of the wing usually attach the engine through rigid elements to a fixed set of nodes. This thesis develops a continuous engine attachment for gradient-based aerostructural optimization, and uses it to study the structural trade-offs of engine placement on the Athena wing. The proposed sliding kernel attachment is based on the linearized MELD transfer scheme. A smooth spanwise weighting function moves the engine load with the engine and shares it among the rib corners of the pylon strip, conserving force, moment and virtual work. Its derivatives with respect to the engine coordinates are combined with the adjoint sensitivities of the coupled analysis, assembled in OpenMDAO with TACS and a vortex lattice method, so that the engine coordinates become design variables together with the structural sizing. The attachment is verified on the Simple Transonic Wing benchmark. Force, moment and virtual work are conserved to machine precision, the outputs vary continuously with the engine position, and the total derivatives agree with finite differences within 1.6 \u00d7 10\u207b\u2076. For engine positions aligned with a rib station, the results match those of an RBE3 attachment within 0.2% for the global quantities and 1.4% for the local failure index. A structural optimization with the engine position as a design variable reaches the same wingbox mass within 0.004% from different starting points, but without other trade-offs it moves the engine close to the tip. The framework is then applied to the Athena wing, in a structural and in an aerostructural optimization. The pylon weight, the vertical tail required with one engine inoperative, and the interference drag between nacelle and wing are included as penalties in the objective.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate and time: 2026-11-18, 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: Collaborative Visualization Environment (CoVE) Weber Space Science and Technology Building (SST II)\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee:\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Dimitri Mavris (advisor), School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Graeme J.

This dissertation develops probabilistic forecasting methods for deregulated electricity markets in three research threads, progressing from point accuracy to calibrated uncertainty to joint scenarios across locations. The first thread proposes GARCHFormer, a Transformer-style encoder\u2013decoder that maintains conditional-mean, conditional-variance, and fused latent paths at every layer, linked by a GARCH-inspired attention mechanism and a FiLM-based variance-to-mean fusion. Evaluated on public load and price datasets under both standard and capacity-controlled protocols, it delivers consistently strong point accuracy while learning time-varying volatility directly. The second thread extends this architecture to probabilistic forecasting with quantile, sigma-scaled, and Gaussian output modes and benchmarks it against a roster of deep learning models. Because raw prediction intervals from different models reach different coverage levels, it introduces a calibrate-then-compare protocol built on conformalized quantile regression, refined with per-horizon corrections and temporal copulas, and ranks forecasters by minimax regret across markets; under this rule the proposed model is the most robust choice. The third thread turns to multi-location renewable generation, developing a copula-based framework that produces spatially coherent solar and wind scenarios, improves on an industrial baseline, and stitches together scenario sets for wind speed and wind generation that come from separate forecast providers. Together, the results indicate that explicitly modeling volatility improves both point and probabilistic forecasts, that probabilistic forecasters should be compared only after they are calibrated, and that copula-based scenario generation turns marginal forecasts into the joint scenarios that market operations require.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EProbabilistic Forecasting in Energy Markets\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Probabilistic Forecasting in Energy Markets"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-03 17:35:12","changed_gmt":"2026-11-03 17:35:42","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-19T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-19T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-19T14:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-19 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-19 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-19 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"George Tower, Room 607, and virtual via Microsoft Teams","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693727":{"#nid":"693727","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Proposal by Kader Engin Aydin","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EStudent Name: Kader Engin Aydin\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisor: Dr. Dimitri Mavris\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMilestone: PhD Thesis Proposal\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDegree Program: Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ETitle: An MBSE Framework for Certification Informed Design Decisions\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAbstract: Aircraft continue to undergo design changes throughout their service life to accommodate new technologies, operational needs, and customer requirements. These modifications can affect systems beyond those directly changed and require previous compliance demonstrations to be reconsidered. The resulting certification work can influence whether a proposed modification is worthwhile and which alternative should be selected. However, the information needed to assess these consequences is often distributed across design documents, certification records, and engineering disciplines. Establishing the relationships between a modification, its effects on the aircraft, and the associated compliance work therefore requires substantial interpretation and coordination. Engineering change management methods provide ways to represent dependencies and identify how changes propagate through a system. Some methods also relate these effects to engineering effort through component costs, task dependencies, and repeated work. Model-based certification studies address another part of the problem by connecting regulations to aircraft characteristics and verification activities. Although these approaches support individual assessments, they do not consistently connect aircraft design changes with the certification requirements and demonstrations they affect. Classification also depends on interpreting quantitative and qualitative criteria using information about the change. A further need is to relate the identified certification consequences to the work required, so that modifications can be compared during early design. This proposal presents three investigations toward a model-based methodology for assessing aircraft design changes and their certification consequences. The first investigates how aircraft structure, functions, system interactions, and certification artifacts can be connected to identify and trace change effects. The proposed approach uses conditional relationships to represent the applicability of requirements and compliance activities across aircraft configurations. The second investigates how regulatory classification criteria can be expressed as evaluable conditions and connected to the design characteristics and affected areas represented in the model. The aim is to derive classification inputs from the modeled change rather than require users to answer each classification question. The third investigates how the type, scope, and dependencies of the associated compliance activities can be combined into a relative certification-effort measure. Recorded certification project durations provide an empirical reference for developing and evaluating this measure. The proposed methodology will be examined through representative aircraft modifications, drawing on regulatory guidance, aircraft-family configurations, and documented supplemental type certificate projects. These applications will assess whether a connected model can identify certification impacts, produce traceable classification decisions, and distinguish the relative effort of different modifications. Together, the investigations aim to provide a reusable approach for considering certification consequences alongside the technical benefits of a design change, supporting the comparison of alternatives before detailed certification planning is complete.\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate and time: 2026-11-17, 10 am - 1 pm\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: Collaborative Visualization Environment (CoVE) Weber SST II\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee:\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Dimitri Mavris (advisor), School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Daniel P.

This dissertation develops a unified computational framework that transforms large-scale biomedical literature into traceable, directional, and current hypotheses by integrating a PubMed-derived knowledge graph with large language models (LLMs). The framework progresses from synthesizing structured graph evidence into grounded mechanism hypotheses within an interactive platform, to aligning relation extraction with the therapeutic direction that drug repurposing needs, and ultimately to assessing evidence credibility through time-aware detection of medical reversals. The key contribution is a principle shared by all three studies: the literature behind a knowledge graph must be organized, read rather than merely counted, and read over time. By bridging discovery, explanation, and reassessment on one graph, this work advances literature-based discovery from association-driven knowledge mining toward evidence-grounded scientific inference, with applications in mechanistic interpretation, drug repurposing, and the detection of overturned treatments.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ETransforming Biomedical Literature Into Scientific Discovery: Unifying Graph-Structured Evidence And Large Language Models\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Transforming Biomedical Literature Into Scientific Discovery: Unifying Graph-Structured Evidence And Large Language Models"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-03 17:30:28","changed_gmt":"2026-11-03 17:30:56","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-18T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-18T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-18T16:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-18 19:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-18 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-18 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":" 3115 Whitaker Building","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693725":{"#nid":"693725","#data":{"type":"event","title":"SCS Colloquium: Ling Liu","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESpeaker:\u003C\/strong\u003E Ling Liu, School of Computer Science, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETalk Title:\u003C\/strong\u003E From GenAI to Agentic AI: The Transformative Impact on Academics\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDate\/Location:\u003C\/strong\u003E Friday, Nov. 20, 2026; 11 a.m., KACB 1447\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract:\u003C\/strong\u003E Agentic AI represents the shift from stateless inference and reactive generation to autonomous and goal-driven orchestration.

This fundamental result has inspired extensive research on Hamiltonicity in directed and oriented graphs. In our work, we establish robust versions of Dirac-type theorems for Hamilton cycles in directed and oriented graphs using vertex-spread distributions.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe prove that there exists a constant C such that every sufficiently large oriented graph G on n vertices with minimum semidegree at least (3n-4)\/8 admits a (C\/n)-vertex-spread distribution on Hamilton cycles. We also establish a corresponding result for robust out-expanders with linear minimum semidegree. Building on the recent resolution of the Kahn\u2013Kalai conjecture by Park and Pham, we further obtain the following robust Dirac result: if each edge is kept independently with probability at least Clog n\/n, then the resulting random subgraph contains a Hamilton cycle for every sufficiently large oriented graph with minimum semidegree at least (3n-4)\/8. Our work is the first robust Dirac-type results for oriented graphs.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ERobust Hamiltonicity of Directed and Oriented Graphs via Vertex-Spread Distributions\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Robust Hamiltonicity of Directed and Oriented Graphs via Vertex-Spread Distributions"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-03 17:28:55","changed_gmt":"2026-11-03 17:29:22","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-18T12:30:35-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-18T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-18T14:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-18 17:30:35","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-18 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-18 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Skiles 114","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693723":{"#nid":"693723","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Taste of Africa","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThis year\u2019s theme , \u201dMAX\u201d,\u0026nbsp; is a celebration of Afro-maximalism and unapologetic Blackness.

Reactive additive manufacturing (RAM) is a method of promoting grain refinement and introducing reinforcement particles through \u003Cem\u003Ein situ\u003C\/em\u003E chemical reactions between reactive powder constituents during processing. However, incomplete reactions contribute to heterogeneous microstructures containing variations in particle size, shape, composition, and spatial distribution, which can influence deformation and fracture behavior. Understanding these effects is important for identifying potential damage initiation mechanisms and their effect on tensile properties. In this work, I investigated the relationships between heterogeneous reinforcement particles, deformation and fracture, and mechanical properties in Al-Ti-B\u2084C composites formed through RAM.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFirst, \u003Cem\u003Ein situ\u003C\/em\u003E scanning electron microscopy (SEM) tensile testing was coupled with digital image correlation (DIC) to analyze local strain distributions as they relate to the reinforcement particles over different volume fractions. Machine learning approaches were then employed to quantify the relative importance of particle geometry and composition in predicting particle crack initiation and propagation under uniaxial tension. Finally, the laser-material interaction time during PBF-LB was progressively increased to study the influence of increasing thermal exposure on the progression of the in situ chemical reactions, porosity, and subsequent tensile properties.

This dissertation investigates a unified physical modeling framework based on the maximum entropy production (MEP) principle to improve the interpretation of microwave observations across diverse terrestrial environments. Integrating radiative transfer theory with thermodynamically constrained energy partitioning, the MEP framework enables the simultaneous retrieval of soil moisture (SM) and vegetation water content (VWC). Evaluations across diverse ecosystems demonstrate strong agreement between retrieved SM and ground observations, with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.74 to 0.91 at three Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) core validation sites. Further applications reveal seasonal relationships between satellite-derived VWC and live fuel moisture content in the western United States, while analyses of the 2023\u20132024 Amazon drought identify widespread soil moisture deficits accompanied by spatially heterogeneous vegetation responses. An extension of the framework to a coupled snow and soil system further demonstrates the potential for estimating snow water equivalent (SWE) from microwave observations at multiple frequencies, although retrieval performance depends on prescribed snow properties and calibrated model parameters. Collectively, these findings demonstrate the capabilities and limitations of MEP-based retrievals and establish a physically interpretable foundation for integrated monitoring of terrestrial water dynamics across multiple satellite sensors.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EADVANCING GLOBAL ECO-HYDROLOGICAL MONITORING: AN INTEGRATED PHYSICAL MODELING FRAMEWORK FOR MULTI-SENSOR REMOTE SENSING\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"ADVANCING GLOBAL ECO-HYDROLOGICAL MONITORING: AN INTEGRATED PHYSICAL MODELING FRAMEWORK FOR MULTI-SENSOR REMOTE SENSING"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-02 20:23:09","changed_gmt":"2026-11-02 20:23:32","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-19T14:00:25-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-19T16:00:25-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-19T16:00:25-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-19 19:00:25","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-19 21:00:25","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-19 21:00:25","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"SEB 122","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693698":{"#nid":"693698","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Proposal by Georgia Hilburn","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EGeorgia Hilburn\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisors: Naresh Thadhani and Josh Kacher\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003Ewill propose a doctoral thesis entitled,\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EInvestigating the Effects of Phase Transformation and Loading Conditions on Shock Dissipation and Spall Failure in\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Titanium Alloys\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EOn\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMonday, November 23, 2026\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E12 pm \u2013 2 pm\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMRDC 4404\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETeams Meeting Link: \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ameeting_NmY3ZDk4YjQtNTNkYy00OTk1LWE0N2YtZGFlNGUyNDQ0YmEw%40thread.v2\/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%22482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%228820358a-8a69-4d1e-8b1d-08ee61fd27cb%22%7d\u0022 title=\u0022https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ameeting_NmY3ZDk4YjQtNTNkYy00OTk1LWE0N2YtZGFlNGUyNDQ0YmEw%40thread.v2\/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%22482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%228820358a-8a69-4d1e-8b1d-08ee61fd27cb%22%7d\u0022\u003EGeorgia Hilburn\u0027s Thesis Proposal\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis work will establish a fundamental understanding of the relationships between initial microstructure, shock-loading history, and martensitic phase transformation, and their effects on shock dissipation and subsequent spall failure in titanium alloys.

However, their widespread application is impeded by insufficient air-electrode activity and durability under practical operating conditions, particularly in H2O- and CO2-rich environments. This dissertation aims to address these challenges through the development of new electrolyte and air-electrode materials. rational design, synthesis, and mechanistic investigation of, and multi-doped proton-conducting electrolytes.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe first objective is to develop triple ionic-electronic conducting (TIEC) air electrode materials with high catalytic activity for oxygen reduction and evolution while maintaining adequate stability against high concentrations of steam and CO2. BaCoO3-\u03b4 (BCO)-based TIEC air electrodes will be optimized through B-site substitution with cations commonly used in proton-conducting electrolytes, such as Hf, Sn, Y, and Yb, to promote coupled electronic, oxygen-ion, and proton transport while improving structural stability under high-steam conditions. Electrochemical activity and durability will be evaluated in symmetrical cells and single cells. The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetic will be investigated using distribution of relaxation times (DRT) analysis and in situ Raman spectroscopy, while oxygen and proton transport will be characterized using electrical conductivity relaxation (ECR) measurements.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe second objective is to enhance chemical stability of electrolytes against H2O and CO2 while maintaining high proton conductivity.

The electrolyte will be characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiometry, hydrogen-deuterium isotope exchange, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and steam\/CO2 exposure tests to assess proton transport, hydration behavior, and chemical stability.

We target the regression contrast through pseudo-residuals, which we construct by multiplying residuals from the pooled outcome regression by the difference between the population indicator and its propensity. Under overlap, the conditional mean of the proposed pseudo-residuals identifies the regression contrast. Furthermore, the pseudo-residuals satisfy Neyman orthogonality, which removes the first-order population bias from nuisance estimation and allows us to test the regression contrast under weaker nuisance estimation rate requirements. To construct our test statistic, we embed the conditional moment of the pseudo-residuals in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS), leading to a simple closed form expression and calibrate its empirical norm using a Gaussian multiplier bootstrap. We establish a finite-sample calibration bound that separates oracle Gaussian approximation, nuisance estimation, and covariance estimation errors. Our main result gives conditions under which we can use the same observations for both nuisance fitting and testing, yielding valid and powerful inference without sample splitting. In a fixed Gaussian regression model, we establish matching lower and upper bounds for the minimax separation order (n^{-1\/2}) in the RKHS discrepancy and show that the proposed test attains this order. We conduct extensive numerical studies to examine size and power across learners and demonstrate power gains over a single sample split and other competitors and illustrate the test on an exploratory application to negotiation dialogues for regression comparison with text covariates.\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003EParomita Dubey is an assistant professor in the DSO department at the USC Marshall School of Business.

Disruption of this process can result in neural tube defects, including spina bifida and anencephaly. Although cellular metabolism is increasingly recognized as an important regulator of cell fate and tissue organization, the spatial and metabolic changes accompanying early neural development remain poorly understood. Neural rosettes, which recapitulate key structural features of the developing neural tube, provide an in vitro model for investigating the relationship between cellular organization and metabolic activity. While conventional fluorescence microscopy can characterize neural rosette structures, it does not provide direct information about their spatial molecular composition. Additionally, bulk metabolomic approaches lack the spatial resolution needed to distinguish molecular differences between lumen-associated regions and surrounding cells. This research seeks to address these limitations by integrating matrix-assisted laser desorption\/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) with fluorescence microscopy to characterize spatial and temporal lipid-associated metabolic changes during neural rosette development. The central hypothesis is that neural rosette formation is accompanied by spatially organized lipid remodeling that changes throughout differentiation and responds to alterations in the cellular microenvironment. Aim 1 will develop and validate a computational framework using dimensionality reduction and unsupervised clustering to identify spatially distinct metabolic states and evaluate their correspondence with neural rosette structures. Aim 2 will investigate how exogenous lipid exposure influences the temporal metabolic and structural development of neural rosettes. Aim 3 will characterize lipid remodeling under constrained and unconstrained differentiation conditions using micropatterned cultures to determine how geometric confinement influences the spatial organization and progression of metabolic states. These studies will establish an integrated approach for linking spatial metabolic organization with neural rosette development, providing new insight into lipid-associated processes during early human neural differentiation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EINVESTIGATING EARLY NEURAL DEVELOPMENT THROUGH SPATIOTEMPORAL METABOLIC CHARACTERIZATION OF HUMAN NEURAL ROSETTES\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"INVESTIGATING EARLY NEURAL DEVELOPMENT THROUGH SPATIOTEMPORAL METABOLIC CHARACTERIZATION OF HUMAN NEURAL ROSETTES"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-02 16:38:12","changed_gmt":"2026-11-02 16:38:43","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-13T15:30:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-13T17:30:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-13T17:30:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-13 20:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-13 22:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-13 22:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Suddath Room, IBB 1128","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693203":{"#nid":"693203","#data":{"type":"event","title":"FORGE AI Summit | Day 2: FORGE Showcases (Hybrid)","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDay 2: FORGE Showcases \u2013 Hybrid (In-Person Attendance at the Global Learning Center)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EThe second day shifts from foundations to exploration, featuring keynotes, presentations, and showcases highlighting AI and data in action.

This seemingly simple question reflects the complex coordination of sensory, motor, and physiological processes that allow organisms to locate and consume food. Understanding how feeding-related behaviors change with food conditions and age requires methods capable of capturing subtle movements and their organization over time. In this work, I develop computational approaches for quantifying feeding and exploratory behaviors in freely moving Caenorhabditis elegans and investigate how feeding history, sensory information, and aging influence these behaviors.\u003Cbr\u003EFirst, I introduce EZ-FRCNN and PumpKin, which enable automated detection of biological structures and measurement of pharyngeal pumping without immobilization or genetic modification. Next, I present CastKin, a method for isolating exploratory head movements from broader body motion. Using these tools, I demonstrate that feeding-related behaviors vary with feeding history and pumping ability, while both olfactory and mechanosensory cues independently influence head casting.\u003Cbr\u003EFinally, I develop a head-centered Markov model of foraging behavior and apply it to over 1,400 videos of well-fed and starved worms across the first 14 days of adulthood. This analysis reveals previously unresolved behavioral subtypes and age- and feeding-dependent differences in how worms occupy and transition between behavioral states.\u003Cbr\u003ETogether, these findings demonstrate the value of measuring fine-scale behaviors and their temporal dynamics, providing new tools and insights for understanding how feeding and exploration are regulated throughout adulthood.\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ETo eat or not to eat: A Computational Framework for Modeling Feeding and Exploratory Behavior in Aging C. elegans\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"To eat or not to eat: A Computational Framework for Modeling Feeding and Exploratory Behavior in Aging C. elegans"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-02 16:08:49","changed_gmt":"2026-11-02 16:09:20","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-13T09:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-13T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-13T11:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-13 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-13 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-13 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"EBB 3029","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693201":{"#nid":"693201","#data":{"type":"event","title":"FORGE AI Summit | Day 1: FORGE Foundations (Virtual)","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDay 1: FORGE Foundations (Virtual)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EThe FORGE AI summit begins by establishing a shared foundation around data and AI literacy.

Simulation studies show strong benefits, but implementation has been limited, because a full Physical Internet needs many organizations to change at once, because each hub must decide without a global view of the network, and because competing organizations will not share all of their operational information. This dissertation addresses these challenges in three research threads, progressing from a single organization to an ecosystem of organizations. The first thread defines the Physical Intranet, the application of Physical Internet principles within a single organization. It develops an operational framework of modular containerization, tiered mesh networks, continuous sorting and frequency-based transportation, and validates it on the network of a major North American parcel provider. The second thread focuses on the two decisions every hub in an open network must take on its own: where each container goes next and when the freight waiting on a lane should leave. It designs routing and dispatch protocols that make these decisions from what the hub can observe. The third thread introduces a framework of graduated data sovereignty, in which networks commit to verifiable outcomes at their boundaries while choosing how much operational data to disclose. It uses the framework to identify what information each routing and dispatch protocol needs from other organizations. Together, the results indicate that much of what the Physical Internet promises is available to a single provider, that hubs deciding locally come close to central coordination, and that networks can capture most of the benefit while disclosing little.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EEnabling the Physical Internet at Scale: Internal Networks, Decisional Protocols, and Data Sovereignty\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Enabling the Physical Internet at Scale: Internal Networks, Decisional Protocols, and Data Sovereignty"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-02 15:55:11","changed_gmt":"2026-11-02 15:55:49","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-16T09:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-16T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-16T11:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-16 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-16 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-16 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"George Tower 602 (Physical Internet Center), and virtual via Microsoft Teams","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693684":{"#nid":"693684","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Lloyd Teta","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EStudent Name: Lloyd Teta\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisor: Dr. Dimitri Mavris\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMilestone: PhD Thesis Final Examination (Defense)\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDegree Program: Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ETitle: A Framework for Concurrent Design and Fleet Operations Optimization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Based Last-Mile Delivery Networks\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAbstract: Last-mile delivery is one of the most costly and operationally complex stages of parcel distribution. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) offer a promising complement to ground delivery by bypassing road congestion and providing rapid service for lightweight packages. However, their limited payload capacity, battery energy, and endurance constrain their operational capabilities. A delivery network also requires aircraft to perform a wide range of missions with different distances, payloads, and energy requirements. Conventional aircraft design typically sizes a vehicle for a representative mission, while logistics planners optimize delivery networks around an existing or assumed aircraft. Decoupling aircraft design from delivery network planning can lead to undersized or oversized aircraft, compromising network feasibility, increasing fleet requirements, and raising overall delivery costs. This dissertation develops Concurrent Optimization of Network, Design, and Operations (CONDOR), a framework that integrates Conceptual Vehicle Design (CVD) and Fleet-Level Operations (FLO) planning for UAV-based last-mile delivery. The framework is developed and evaluated through three research areas. The first formulates a Location-Fleet-Routing Problem (LFRP) that jointly optimizes depot placement, fleet sizing, and delivery routes and evaluates its advantages over sequential planning. The second extends fleet-level planning to uncertain demand and examines the trade-offs between cost, infrastructure investment, and service reliability. The third develops a multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) architecture that couples aircraft design with delivery network planning and evaluates how aircraft characteristics and operational requirements influence system performance. The results demonstrate that coordinating depot, fleet, and routing decisions can reduce operating costs and improve resource utilization. Planning under demand uncertainty reveals the additional infrastructure required to achieve reliable service and the limits of feasible coverage. The overarching demonstration shows that concurrent aircraft and network optimization can achieve lower delivery costs than conventional design-first and network-first approaches while maintaining the same service coverage. The findings establish a methodology for evaluating aircraft designs through their effects on network feasibility, fleet requirements, and total system cost, providing a foundation for more efficient UAV-based delivery systems.\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate and time: 2026-11-10, 12:00 p.m. EST\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: Collaborative Visualization Environment (CoVE), Weber Space Science and Technology Building (SST II) And Teams Meeting: \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/246945013645082?p=9gLD2KJWMu2cAm9SR5\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/246945013645082?p=9gLD2KJWMu2cAm9SR5\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee:\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Dimitri Mavris (advisor), School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Daniel P.

Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) offers a programmable environment for combining molecular recognition elements and genetic circuits for biosensing. One such approach, the T7 RNA polymerase-Linked ImmunoSensing Assay (TLISA), uses nanobodies to reassemble split polymerase fragments upon simultaneous binding to a target protein, driving reporter expression. A more sensitive version of TLISA has been implemented in PURE, a CFPS system reconstituted from purified components. However, commercial PURE costs $1,110 per mL of reaction, making biosensor optimization expensive and limits affordability for POC deployment. One-pot PURE simplifies preparation by jointly purifying the 36 PURE proteins from a co-culture, reducing costs to $90 per mL. I hypothesize that one-pot PURE will improve TLISA\u2019s affordability, while interchangeable nucleic acid recognition elements will enable modular detection of protein and nucleic acid targets. These elements would address a separate limitation: adapting TLISA to new targets requires cloning new affinity domain\u2013polymerase fusions, slowing sensor development. First, I will establish and optimize one-pot PURE in-house and validate its support for TLISA sensing. Second, I will engineer an RNA hairpin-aptamer TLISA architecture that tethers target-binding aptamers to split polymerase fragments through specific protein-RNA interactions.

In the existing theory of disperse multiphase flows, phase interactions are represented as forces between the phases. It is well known that models using only force-based interactions are ill-posed, resulting in non-hyperbolic governing equations. In this work, using ensemble averaging and nearest particle statistics, the fluid-particle phase interaction is decomposed into a particle-mean-field force (representing the conventional drag force) and the divergence of the particle-fluid-particle (PFP) stress. To explore the physics of PFP stress and develop a practical mathematical model, a series of particle-scale-resolved simulations have been conducted using CFD-DEM-IBM.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EIt is found that for a fluid-particle system with high particle-fluid density ratios, the PFP stress is attractive along the flow direction and repulsive in the direction perpendicular to the flow. This serves as the macroscopic representation of the well-known drafting-kissing-tumbling (DKT) phenomena observed in experiments, which is still absent in existing particle-laden flow theories. To quantify the essential physics, a preliminary PFP stress model, expressed in terms of particle volume fraction and Reynolds number, is proposed based on physical principles and particle-resolved direct numerical simulations.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E Dr. Min Wang is a Staff Scientist in Fluid Dynamics and Solid Mechanics Group at Theoretical Division in Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).

The most promising results are driven by large scale teleoperation, but this data source cannot scale as fast as other sources of data, which has spawned considerable work to learn from human videos. Despite progress here, the human to robot gap makes it difficult to directly transfer capabilities in human video to robot policies, forcing most prior works to introduce some inductive bias. In this thesis, we argue that co-design of training algorithms and data collection systems enables us to directly transfer capabilities from human experience. We begin the thesis by proposing embodied human data, defined as egocentric video paired with 3D hand and head pose tracking, as well as a system to collect it, and an algorithm to train with it. Second, we collect the largest dataset of embodied human data, enabling both controlled scientific exploration as well as large scale training. Third, we find that human to robot transfer emerges in foundation models pretrained across many tasks and embodiments.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EEmbodied Intelligence from Human Experience\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Embodied Intelligence from Human Experience"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-02 13:22:42","changed_gmt":"2026-11-02 14:31:06","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-05T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-05T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-05T15:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-05 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-05 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-05 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"ZOOM","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693681":{"#nid":"693681","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Yujia Xu","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ETitle: Resource Pooling in Hyperconnected Logistics Networks\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDate: Monday, November 16, 2026\u003Cbr\u003ETime: 2:00 PM \u2013 4:00 PM ET\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: Virtual via Microsoft Teams\u003Cbr\u003EMeeting link: https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/297219506494396?p=jBxsWTUiavcTjnCxMG (Meeting ID: 297 219 506 494 396, Passcode: cp9zJ6Ty)\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EYujia Xu\u003Cbr\u003EMachine Learning PhD Student\u003Cbr\u003EH.

Resource pooling therefore extends capacity planning under uncertainty beyond individual facilities and firms to include the coordination of shared resources and the discovery of outside capacity. This dissertation develops stochastic optimization, decomposition, and learning methods for resource-pooling decisions, from deploying known resources to expanding the pool beyond the network. We first formulate the dynamic deployment of pooled workers and autonomous mobile robots across urban parcel hubs as a rolling-horizon two-stage stochastic program that respects worker shift and location preferences, and solve large-scale instances with an accelerated Benders decomposition and clustering-based relax-and-fix heuristics. Then we design battery swapping and charging networks that support long-haul truck electrification by keeping swapping close to freight demand while allowing charging to shift to grid-suitable hubs. We model this design problem as a multi-period, two-stage stochastic location\u2013inventory\u2013fleet program and solve it with a Lov\u00e1sz-cut Benders decomposition that exploits the submodularity of the battery recourse function. Lastly, we introduce open capacity pooling, in which a disrupted network discovers capacity held by previously unengaged providers through a closed loop of coordination, search, and admission under a limited budget of requests for quotation. Each request targets a capacity gap remaining after incumbent firms coordinate through the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) without sharing their operating models, and is directed to a provider ranked by a machine-learning layer built on directory records and large language model readings of provider self-descriptions. We evaluate the proposed methods in computational studies grounded in real-world data from industry partners and public sources. The findings show how resource pooling helps logistics networks respond to uncertain demand and disruptions by coordinating shared resources and incorporating capacity from outside providers.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EResource Pooling in Hyperconnected Logistics Networks\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Resource Pooling in Hyperconnected Logistics Networks"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-11-02 13:21:15","changed_gmt":"2026-11-02 13:21:49","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-16T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-16T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-16T16:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-16 19:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-16 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-16 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Virtual via Microsoft Teams","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693680":{"#nid":"693680","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Georgia CTSA NextGen Workshop","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/georgiactsa.org\/_includes\/documents\/sections\/news\/k-club-and-nextgen-pdf.pdf\u0022\u003EFLYER \u003C\/a\u003Efor more info\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EA hands-on workshop to build your scientific brand through clarity, visibility, and impact.

Sustainable REE resource development requires both a fundamental understanding of the geochemical processes governing\u0026nbsp;resource formation and\u0026nbsp;advances in\u0026nbsp;environmentally compatible extraction and recovery strategies. Highly weathered, clay-rich deposits represent important natural REE resources. However, the molecular-scale mechanisms by which solution chemistry, mineral surfaces, and naturally occurring ligands regulate REE behavior remain\u0026nbsp;incompletely understood. Meanwhile, conventional REE extraction and recovery often involve high chemical and energy consumption and substantial waste generation. Bio-assisted approaches, including fungal bioleaching, offer promising alternatives that operate under milder conditions and may reduce chemical consumption and environmental impacts. However, the mechanistic links among cultivation conditions, microbial metabolism, and REE mobilization remain poorly understood.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis dissertation investigates the key geochemical controls on REE speciation, mobility, secondary phase formation during chemical weathering, and\u0026nbsp;explores fungal bioleaching as a promising approach to REE extraction. Controlled laboratory experiments integrate solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy, microscopy, aqueous-phase analyses, and extracellular metabolomics to connect molecular-scale reaction mechanisms controlling REE behavior at mineral-water interfaces and extraction performance. Using yttrium (Y) as a probe for heavy REEs, phosphate and citrate as representative ligands, kaolinite as a mineral substrate, this work identifies complementary mechanisms governing REE retention and release during weathering. Phosphate promotes Y immobilization at kaolinite-water interfaces through ternary surface complex and secondary Y-phosphate precipitation. In contrast, citrate can promote either Y retention or remobilization, depending on ligand concentration, solution pH, and reaction sequence. Reactant concentrations and solution pH further regulate the crystallinity of newly formed REE-bearing secondary phase. Extending this investigation to biologically mediated mobilization, experiments with \u003Cem\u003EAspergillus niger\u003C\/em\u003E\u0026nbsp;and natural REE-bearing\u0026nbsp;mineral\u0026nbsp;sands\u0026nbsp;suggest\u0026nbsp;that initial pH act as a signaling cue shaping subsequent metabolic response and leaching trajectories. These findings suggest that cultivation conditions could be used to guide microbial metabolism and regulate the balance between REE dissolution and precipitation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETogether, this work advances the mechanistic understanding of REE speciation, mobility, redistribution, and secondary-phase formation in weathering systems and provides a basis for tuning bioleaching systems to achieve desired extraction outcomes.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee members:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003EDr. Yuanzhi Tang (Advisor), Dr. Martial Taillefert, Dr. Jennifer B.

Rock-physics augmentation improves reconstruction under tested model mismatch, while a three-phase extension enables joint estimation of oil and CO\u2082 saturation. A sensitivity-aware Digital Twin treats rock-physics assumptions as explicit context, supporting assumption-specific inference and what-if analysis. Finally, a collaborative case study demonstrates how probabilistic Digital Shadow estimates can be supplied to a separately developed injection-control workflow.

Dysfunctional clot growth can manifest in different cardiovascular conditions. Excessive clotting can lead to thrombosis, while insufficient clotting can cause hemorrhagic disorders. While clot initiation has been extensively studied and well-characterized, clot cessation represents a critical gap in our understanding of the hemostatic process.\u0026nbsp; Clots represent a highly dynamic environment, rapidly transitioning from a liquid-like, viscous material to a solid-like elastic material. Platelets have been known to sense their mechanical environments, specifically substrate stiffness. I extend this reasoning to substrate viscoelasticity and hypothesize that clot viscoelasticity is a mechanical regulator of clot growth arrest. To test this, I will use tunable interpenetrating networks (IPNs) to investigate how substrate viscoelasticity regulates platelet activation at the molecular level, and how physiological shear stresses interact with clot mechanics to govern clot cessation. Aim 1 will establish physiological viscoelastic relevance of the IPNs by comparing their viscoelastic properties of the IPNs to whole blood clots and contrived spatial clot models. Aim 2 will be to investigate platelet response to viscoelastic microenvironments in both 2D and 3D environments and elucidate the molecular mechanisms that govern platelet activation through integrin-driven signaling pathways. Aim 3 will extend these findings to physiological flow conditions using microfluidic platforms, determining the synergistic effect of hemodynamic shear and clot viscoelasticity on platelet mechanotransduction. These studies will uncover viscoelastic mechanosensing as a previously unrecognized regulator of clot cessation, generating a new mechanobiological perspective for understanding hemostasis and thrombosis with direct implications for the development of precision therapies for both thrombotic and hemorrhagic disorders.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EBioE PhD Proposal Presentation- \u0026nbsp;\u0022 Dynamics of Blood Clot Viscoelasticity Mediates Clot Maturation via Platelet Mechanotransduction\u0022 - Adarsh Choudhury\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"\u0022 Dynamics of Blood Clot Viscoelasticity Mediates Clot Maturation via Platelet Mechanotransduction\u0022"}],"uid":"27917","created_gmt":"2026-10-30 14:23:22","changed_gmt":"2026-10-30 14:24:20","author":"Laura Paige","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-13T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-13T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-13T13:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-13 16:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-13 18:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-13 18:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"1103 Whitaker","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"65448","name":"Bioengineering Graduate Program"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"172056","name":"go-BioE"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693645":{"#nid":"693645","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Oxford Info Session","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ESpend Summer 2027 with Georgia Tech in Oxford!

Deviations from healthy temperature ranges may indicate injury or disease. Chemical shift thermometry (CST) uses proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (\u00b9H MRS) to measure the chemical shift difference between water and a temperature insensitive metabolite to quantify absolute brain temperature noninvasively, and ultra-high field (7T) MRI provides greater signal-to-noise ratio and spectral resolution than conventional field strengths which may enable precise temperature measurement. CST has been developed and validated primarily at lower field strengths (\u22643 T), and its use at 7T requires characterization of participant tolerability and field-specific values in healthy adults. Furthermore, applications in disease are largely unexplored. This thesis addresses the two gaps and demonstrates application of 7T CST in a disease model. Tolerability was assessed by comparing symptom prevalence in healthy adults scanned with both 3T and 7T MRI. Symptoms, predominantly dizziness, were reported by 61% of participants at 7T and 3% at 3T and were present on entry into the bore, independent of cumulative scan time. Subsequently, a mock 7T bore and head and neck coil was designed and 3D-printed as a low-cost, portable tool to help acclimate participants to ultra-high field MRI and was implemented to screen prospective clinical trial participants for comfort prior to a 7T MRI examination. The repeatability and healthy range of brain temperature measured with 7T CST were then characterized in healthy adults. Brain temperature demonstrated moderate repeatability in the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and high repeatability in the thalamus, with thalamic temperature exceeding cortical temperature. Brain temperature at 7T was approximately 0.8\u00b0C lower than at 3T despite comparable body temperature, indicating a field-strength dependence that precludes the direct application of 3T reference ranges at 7T and motivates further investigation into field strength dependent effects. Median brain temperature at 7T was 37.1\u00b0C and was not associated with age or sex. Finally, 7T CST was applied to assess brain temperature alterations in people with HIV (PWH). PCC temperature was lower in PWH than in healthy controls, and associations between brain temperature and myo-inositol and total choline, markers of glial activity and membrane turnover, were present in controls but absent in PWH. These findings suggest brain temperature, and its coupling to cerebral metabolism remains altered despite viral suppression. Collectively, this work characterizes participant experience at 7T and establishes field-specific reference values for CST. It also demonstrates that 7T CST is sensitive to disease-related alterations in brain physiology. Interpreted against field-specific reference values, 7T CST can serve as a noninvasive, quantitative marker of brain health that complements standard of care MRI parameters.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ETolerability, repeatability, and clinical application of brain thermometry at ultra-high magnetic resonance field strengths\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Tolerability, repeatability, and clinical application of brain thermometry at ultra-high magnetic resonance field strengths"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-30 13:10:28","changed_gmt":"2026-10-30 13:11:14","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-12T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-12T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-12T14:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-12 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-12 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-12 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Room N600, Health Sciences Research Building II","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"111531","name":"ms defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693643":{"#nid":"693643","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Proposal by Grace Barkhuff","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EImagining the Future of Computing Ethics\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EGrace Barkhuff\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPh.D. Student in Human-Centered Computing\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Interactive Computing\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EGeorgia Institute of Technology\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDate:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003ENovember 13, 2026\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETime:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp; 3pm - 5pm ET\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ELocation:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp; TSRB 233\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Ellen Zegura (Advisor) - School of Interactive Computing and School of Computer Science, Georgia Institute of\u0026nbsp; Technology\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Rodrigo Borela - School of Computing Instruction, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Betsy DiSalvo - School of Interactive Computing, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Carl DiSalvo - School of Interactive Computing, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Casey Fiesler - Department of Information Science, University of Colorado Boulder\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe technology industry develops pervasive, ubiquitous tools that impact both society broadly and our personal, daily lives. From social media\u0027s influence on elections to generative AI for emotional support, computing technologies and those who develop them have a profound impact on how we live. As a result, calls abound for new computing technologies to be developed \u0022ethically\u0022 and \u0022responsibly.\u0022 For the past fifty years, academia\u0027s efforts in this realm have focused on computing ethics education, a subject within computing that teaches students to consider the societal impacts of the tools they design. Because this education is critical, we must pause to evaluate the state of our ethics education and its effectiveness and imagine how we might improve it. In this thesis proposal, I provide an overview of the current state of ethics education in the United States, including an analysis of educational materials that meet ethics learning outcomes, educators\u0027 perceptions of ethics instruction, prevalence of required ethics instruction in computing programs, and students\u0027 approach to ethics when designing new technologies. I reflect on what it might mean for instructors to model ethical engagement with technology in their own classrooms, then propose work related to using ethics education to help students develop an understanding of how their values connect to their careers in computing.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EMeeting Details\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgatech.zoom.us%2Fj%2F4265896666%3Fpwd%3DbW10czF5UGVJcTNzWEFQa0NYem1TZz09\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7Cannouncements%40grad.gatech.edu%7Cec8fb1a43a754b2320c308df360762ac%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C1%7C0%7C639289077471364149%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=ZM%2BXo7oIMQVdJdUbJvPKT9JI%2FCtB1cL5dQOihLVWIaU%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003E https:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/j\/4265896666?pwd=bW10czF5UGVJcTNzWEFQa0NYem1TZz09\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EImagining the Future of Computing Ethics\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Imagining the Future of Computing Ethics"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-30 13:01:31","changed_gmt":"2026-10-30 13:01:31","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-13T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-13T17:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-13T17:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-13 20:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-13 22:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-13 22:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"TSRB 233","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693641":{"#nid":"693641","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Proposal by Ayomide Samson OLUWAJOBA","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EAyomide Samson OLUWAJOBA\u003Cbr\u003EBME PhD Proposal Presentation\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate: 2026-11-04\u003Cbr\u003ETime: 1:00 PM-3:00 PM\u003Cbr\u003ELocation \/ Meeting Link: \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/emory.zoom.us\/j\/99869461811\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/emory.zoom.us\/j\/99869461811\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee Members:\u003Cbr\u003ERavi Kane, PhD (Advisor) Shuichi Takayama, PhD Mark Prausnitz, PhD John Blazeck, PhD Sean Palecek, PhD\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ETitle: Engineering approaches for intrinsic control of stem cell differentiation\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAbstract:\u003Cbr\u003ECardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of death worldwide. In 2022, approximately 19.8 million people died from these diseases. One of the major CVDs is coronary artery disease, which can lead to myocardial infarction when blood flow to a part of the heart becomes blocked. This, in turn, damages the heart muscle and leads to the loss of cardiomyocytes. Sadly, the adult human heart has limited regenerative capacity to replace the lost cells. For this reason, researchers have investigated the potential of differentiating human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into cardiomyocytes (CMs) for applications in heart cell therapy biomanufacturing, cardiac research, and regenerative medicine. During hiPSC-CM differentiation, small molecules are added to the cells at selected times to regulate signaling pathways involved in cardiomyocyte development. Canonical Wnt signaling, for instance, is activated during the early differentiation stage to promote differentiation of hiPSCs from their pluripotent state into cardiac mesoderm. And later, canonical Wnt signaling is inhibited to promote the formation of cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Alongside the Wnt signaling pathway, another pathway that is extremely important for cardiomyocyte formation is the retinoic acid (RA) signaling pathway, and this is because it fosters the specialization of CPCs into chamber-specific cardiomyocytes. Although existing hiPSC-CM differentiation protocols can produce high proportions of cardiomyocytes, one major limitation is that the time-dependent addition of or treatment with small molecules is determined for the entire cell population rather than according to the developmental stage of individual cells. But the reality is that cells in the same population are not necessarily at the same developmental stage at the same time. Because of this lack of cell state synchronization, a treatment that is appropriate for one cell may be introduced too early or too late for another cell, potentially contributing to cell-to-cell heterogeneity and thus reducing the robustness and scalability of biomanufacturing of iPSC-derived cells. To address this problem, this research work aims to develop engineering approaches for intrinsic control of stem cell differentiation by regulating canonical Wnt and RA signaling. First, we will develop approaches for activating and inhibiting canonical Wnt signaling to control hiPSC differentiation into the cardiac mesoderm and cardiac progenitor stages, respectively. Second, we will develop approaches for cell-intrinsic activation and inhibition of RA signaling, which is involved in atrial and ventricular cardiomyocyte specification. Third, we will investigate how developmental promoters, transcriptional cascades, and feedback systems can be used to control the timing and duration of both signaling pathways. We are interested in measuring how long it takes for each promoter or cascade system to turn on and off, the time taken to reach a half-maximal response, its maximum activity, and how fast its response declines. If successfully applied during cardiac differentiation, these approaches could help reduce cell-to-cell heterogeneity and improve the production of more homogeneous atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes for chamber-specific drug testing, disease modeling, and future applications in cardiac regenerative medicine\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EEngineering approaches for intrinsic control of stem cell differentiation\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Engineering approaches for intrinsic control of stem cell differentiation"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-30 12:39:33","changed_gmt":"2026-10-30 12:40:53","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-04T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-04T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-04T15:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-04 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-04 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-04 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"ZOOM","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693640":{"#nid":"693640","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Sabastian Ayimbila Abelezele","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EStudent Name: Sabastian Ayimbila Abelezele\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisor: Dr. Dimitri Mavris\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMilestone: PhD Thesis Final Examination (Defense)\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDegree Program: Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ETitle: A Scalable and Efficient Framework for Graph-Based Analysis of the Digital Thread\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAbstract: The increasingly connected and rapidly evolving aerospace operational environment, coupled with tight budgets and aggressive timelines, poses significant challenges to the current document-centric analytical paradigm. Addressing these challenges requires Digital Transformation and the application of Digital Engineering principles, with the Digital Thread serving as a key enabler. However, the Digital Thread\u2019s scale and complexity can limit the efficiency of advanced analytics. Digital Thread graphs can support these analyses through graph representation learning, particularly Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Processing entire graphs introduces scalability challenges, while partitioning them into smaller isolated subgraphs restricts information flow. Furthermore, learning representations for prediction does not, by itself, provide an effective strategy for design-space exploration. This thesis addresses these challenges through hybrid graph representations and gradient-based exploration of regression embeddings. Hybrid graphs preserve detailed local information while incorporating aggregated global context from external partitions. Embedding space exploration searches learned representations and decodes them into admissible input states. The AC Optimal Power Flow (AC-OPF) problem in electricity transmission serves as the primary proxy for Digital Thread analytics. The methods are also applied to flight delay prediction and schedule optimization to assess whether the observed trends hold in a different application domain. Across both applications, hybrid graphs recover predictive accuracy lost through isolation while reducing peak memory requirements relative to processing entire graphs. This follows the expected balance between information retention and computational efficiency. Training time benefits are more conditional: additional training batches limit savings in the electricity transmission experiments, whereas hybrid models reduce training time in the flight delay demonstration without subsampling. Embedding space exploration also reduces search time and memory compared with optimizing the original system inputs directly. The improvement achieved in the learned representation must be translated\/decoded back into feasible changes to the engineering system. Decoding preserves a substantial portion of the improvement obtained through direct input optimization in the electricity transmission experiments, with a greater loss of improvement in the flight schedule application. These findings show the potential and limitations of hybrid graphs and learned representations for computationally efficient graph-based analysis and optimization of engineered systems, providing a foundation for their application to Digital Thread graphs.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate and time: 2026-11-16, 8:30 AM\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: Collaborative Visual Environment (CoVE); Weber Space Science and Technology Building (SSTIII)\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee:\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Dimitri Mavris (advisor), School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Kyriakos G.

These systems combine large language model (LLM) inference on accelerators with tool execution on CPUs. CPU processing can dominate tool-intensive workloads, while LLM-intensive workloads introduce challenges in model routing, load balancing, and memory management. For LLM-intensive agents, ORACLE uses task-specific verification and asynchronous feedback to improve model selection. Its scheduler accounts for KV cache capacity and balances the benefit of shorter waiting times against potential losses in accuracy. For tool-intensive agents, OneDSE uses workload information to predict CPU configurations and simulation feedback to guide further search, reducing the number of evaluations needed for design exploration. The thesis also presents a cycle-accurate simulator for exploring accelerator designs, along with dataflow optimizations that reduce memory traffic in symbolic reasoning. The proposed research further investigates mixed-precision acceleration based on each model\u2019s role in an agentic program and joint routing and scheduling for model pools that change with the workload.

This redundancy provides flexibility to adapt movement strategies in response to changing internal, mechanical, and environmental constraints. Understanding how the nervous system uses this flexibility to maintain task performance is essential for understanding motor coordination and adaptation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis dissertation investigates how the nervous system organizes movement variability and joint coordination in response to three distinct constraints: neuromuscular fatigue, increasing running speed, and altered gravity. Using uncontrolled manifold analysis and system identification techniques, three studies examine how changing task demands influence joint-level coordination and the stabilization of task-relevant variables.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe first study investigated running speed in non-amputees and unilateral transtibial amputee sprinters, showing that runners without a prosthesis shift from interjoint toward individual joint coordination at higher speeds, whereas runners with a prosthesis relied more on interjoint covariation. The second study examined lower-limb coordination during repetitive squatting revealing that \u0026nbsp;kinematic coordination remained relatively consistent as fatigue progressed. \u0026nbsp;The third study examined postural control following simulated hypogravity adaptation, revealing a significant reduction in whole-body center of mass sway without significant changes in joint moment variability or relative ankle-to-hip contributions.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETogether, these findings suggest that the nervous system responds to changing physiological, mechanical, and environmental constraints by adjusting movement coordination and control. This dissertation highlights the importance of interpreting movement variability in relation to task-specific goals and provides insight into how the human motor system uses redundancy and flexible coordination strategies to maintain performance across diverse conditions.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EMANAGING REDUNDANCY FOR STABLE TASK PERFORMANCE UNDER CONSTRAINTS\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"MANAGING REDUNDANCY FOR STABLE TASK PERFORMANCE UNDER CONSTRAINTS"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 18:17:26","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 18:18:20","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-06T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-06T14:00:28-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-06T14:00:28-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-06 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-06 19:00:28","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-06 19:00:28","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Applied Physiology Building (555 14th St.), Room 1253","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693629":{"#nid":"693629","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Hsien Cheng Huang","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EHsien Cheng Huang\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E(Advisor: Prof. Vladimir V.

However, these functions are usually installed through covalent synthesis or in organic solvents, and the resulting nanoscale building blocks are often fragile or metastable. How aqueous, non-covalent processing relates to the nanoscale structure and functional properties of these hybrids remains largely unexplored.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis work examines ionic pairing and interfacial coordination in water as processing routes to chiral and magnetic hybrid nanomaterials, and relates the resulting nanoscale structures to the chiroptical and magnetic functions of the hybrids. First, sulfonated polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) nanocages were paired ionically with the amino acid L-tryptophan. The amino acid keeps its chirality on the rigid inorganic cage, while the cage makes the hybrid more robust and directs its assembly into ordered nanostructures. Second, a one-pot aqueous synthesis was developed in which solution basicity switches the shape of the layered zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF-L, and magnetic nanoparticles attached to the ZIF-L surfaces add magnetic response and protect the metastable layered phase. Third, preliminary results combine the two approaches: magnetic nanoparticles leave the chirality of an ionic POSS\u2013amino acid hybrid unchanged in solution and add in-plane order to its films, and POSS\u2013nanoparticle hybrids can be organized by a magnetic field.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETogether, these results identify the mobile ionic counterion and the nanoparticle surface as general design handles for functional hybrid materials made in water.

In wearable electrophysiology, this interface must maintain contact with skin that deforms and perspires, whereas in trace-level chemical sensing it must discriminate analytes with few reactive functional groups. In both cases, the thickness and surface chemistry of the interface are usually dictated by the choice of material. This reserach presents two nanoscale interface platforms in which both parameters are defined at the design stage.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe first platform is an ultrathin skin-conformal nano-electrode composed of Ti3C2Tx MXene (50 nm), poly-L-lysine, and parylene (\u2248300 nm), with the parylene thickness determined from a work-of-adhesion analysis of contact with skin texture. The hydrophilic MXene side and hydrophobic parylene side allow the film to be transferred onto skin by water-assisted capillary flow and to remain attached without gel or adhesive. Compared with commercial gel electrodes, the nano-electrode showed approximately 35% lower skin interfacial impedance and up to threefold higher signal-to-noise ratio in ECG and EMG. ECG was recorded in a sauna and a swimming pool, where gel electrodes detached within minutes, and stable recording was maintained over 30 h of continuous wear.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe second platform is an extended-gate field-effect transistor (EGFET) for tertiary amines of the tryptamine family, with gramine as a structural surrogate for \u003Cem\u003EN\u003C\/em\u003E,\u003Cem\u003EN\u003C\/em\u003E\u2011dimethyltryptamine (DMT). Since these molecules have no N\u2013H bond and no useful redox activity, selectivity was introduced through chemical activation. Sequential \u003Cem\u003EN\u003C\/em\u003E\u2011oxidation and Polonovski rearrangement convert the tertiary amine into an amide, which is covalently bound to an amino-terminated self-assembled monolayer on the gold gate by transamidation, and the resulting surface-potential change is read by a commercial MOSFET. The sensor exhibited a limit of detection of 7 nM over four orders of magnitude. In artificial saliva, gramine was still activated in the presence of thiocyanate and urea, and the extraction step of the Polonovski reaction separated the amide from the matrix before surface coupling.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn both platforms, a function normally supplied by an added layer was instead built into the interface itself by controlling its thickness and surface chemistry: water tolerance at the electrode and molecular selectivity at the gate.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cul\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022ecf0066c9c8cb444b62902592ce6fb300\u0022\u003EProf. Vladimir Tsukruk \u2013 School of Materials Science and Engineering (advisor)\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e37cae127771bd1c229bb17c78a6ce046\u0022\u003EProf. Eric Vogel \u2013 School of Materials Science and Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e77fee81fd7615019aca1a7f37330bf62\u0022\u003EProf. Shucong Li \u2013 School of Materials Science and Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e69a2e2467a9e90d76a6eda77f34c0d8d\u0022\u003EProf. Peter Hesketh \u2013\u0026nbsp;School of Mechanical Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e7e16ae503bf577037516b0e50a1fb882\u0022\u003EProf. Todd Sulchek \u2013 School of Mechanical Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EEngineered Nanoscale Interfaces for\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003EElectrophysiological and Electrochemical Sensing\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Engineered Nanoscale Interfaces for  Electrophysiological and Electrochemical Sensing"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 17:35:36","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 17:37:54","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-12T09:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-12T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-12T11:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-12 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-12 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-12 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Krone Engineered biosystems building (EBB) 3029 Conference Room and\/or virtually via MS Teams","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693624":{"#nid":"693624","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Coffee and Career Conversations with International Professionals","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EClose out International Education Week with coffee and a relaxed conversation about building a career across cultures and time zones.

Dysfunctional clot growth can manifest in different cardiovascular conditions. Excessive clotting can lead to thrombosis, while insufficient clotting can cause hemorrhagic disorders. While clot initiation has been extensively studied and well-characterized, clot cessation represents a critical gap in our understanding of the hemostatic process.\u0026nbsp; Clots represent a highly dynamic environment, rapidly transitioning from a liquid-like, viscous material to a solid-like elastic material. Platelets have been known to sense their mechanical environments, specifically substrate stiffness. I extend this reasoning to substrate viscoelasticity and hypothesize that clot viscoelasticity is a mechanical regulator of clot growth arrest. To test this, I will use tunable interpenetrating networks (IPNs) to investigate how substrate viscoelasticity regulates platelet activation at the molecular level, and how physiological shear stresses interact with clot mechanics to govern clot cessation. Aim 1 will establish physiological viscoelastic relevance of the IPNs by comparing their viscoelastic properties of the IPNs to whole blood clots and contrived spatial clot models. Aim 2 will be to investigate platelet response to viscoelastic microenvironments in both 2D and 3D environments and elucidate the molecular mechanisms that govern platelet activation through integrin-driven signaling pathways. Aim 3 will extend these findings to physiological flow conditions using microfluidic platforms, determining the synergistic effect of hemodynamic shear and clot viscoelasticity on platelet mechanotransduction. These studies will uncover viscoelastic mechanosensing as a previously unrecognized regulator of clot cessation, generating a new mechanobiological perspective for understanding hemostasis and thrombosis with direct implications for the development of precision therapies for both thrombotic and hemorrhagic disorders.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDynamics of Blood Clot Viscoelasticity Mediates Clot Maturation via Platelet Mechanotransduction\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":" Dynamics of Blood Clot Viscoelasticity Mediates Clot Maturation via Platelet Mechanotransduction"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 17:16:53","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 17:17:32","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-13T11:00:13-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-13T13:30:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-13T13:30:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-13 16:00:13","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-13 18:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-13 18:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Whittaker 1103","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693619":{"#nid":"693619","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Honors Board Game Club Biweekly Meeting","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJoin the new biweekly Honors Board Game Club!

However, accurate predictions alone do not guarantee better decisions. In practice, healthcare providers must make decisions with limited time, staffing, and resources. Yet these constraints are often overlooked during model development. This dissertation investigates how optimization can be integrated into machine learning to develop decision-making tools that explicitly account for these operational constraints. It addresses three interconnected questions: When is individualized information worth collecting? What information should we prioritize when resources are limited? And who should receive scarce interventions, and when?\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe first part of this dissertation examines the value of information in clinical decision-making, developing a framework to quantify how individualized baseline testing changes diagnostic decisions in sports-related concussion assessment. The second part develops an operationally constrained machine learning framework that jointly selects diagnostic assessments and trains interpretable prediction models while accounting for uncertain administration times, clinical knowledge, and operational requirements.

Confidence may also influence the strategies navigators use both when learning an environment and retrieving spatial information. Seventy-one mainly younger adults learned landmarks on two routes in immersive virtual reality. They then made 56 directional pointing judgments, each accompanied by a chosen continuous angular area intended to contain the correct direction with 90% confidence. Based on pointing performance, participants were classified as integrators (accurate within and between routes), non-integrators (accurate within routes but inaccurate between routes), or imprecise navigators (inaccurate on both). They also completed baseline measures and a three-arm Y-maze to assess allocentric versus egocentric strategy preference. Pointing errors and confidence intervals were wider for between-route judgments. Absolute calibration gaps were larger between routes, with non-integrators resembling integrators within routes but imprecise navigators between routes. Relative monitoring was also substantially weaker between routes: a 10\u00b0 increase in confidence half-width was associated with a 12.9% increase in pointing error within routes, compared with only 1.4% between routes. Integrators reported a better general sense of direction than imprecise navigators. Interestingly, non-integrators performed relatively well on mental rotation and reported comparatively strong spatial ability, yet rated their general sense of direction more poorly than integrators. These findings suggest that confidence reflected the greater demands of between-route judgments but provided less information about the accuracy of individual responses. Non-integrators\u0027 relatively strong spatial abilities and within-route performance suggest that their difficulties with route integration may reflect how spatial knowledge is constructed or applied, rather than a general limitation in spatial ability. Testing whether confidence influences strategy selection, rather than simply reflecting performance, could help explain why some navigators with otherwise adequate spatial abilities seem to struggle to integrate routes into a survey representation of the environment.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EIndividual Differences in Navigation Performance and Metacognitive Monitoring:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EThe Role of Confidence in Route Learning\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Individual Differences in Navigation Performance and Metacognitive Monitoring: The Role of Confidence in Route Learning"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:10:21","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:11:24","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-09T09:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-09T11:00:33-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-09T11:00:33-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-09 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-09 16:00:33","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-09 16:00:33","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Room 150 ","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693607":{"#nid":"693607","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Michelle Ku","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EStudent Name: Michelle Ku\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisor: Dr. Lakshmi Sankar\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMilestone: PhD Thesis Final Examination (Defense)\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDegree Program: Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ETitle: Roughness Tolerant Airfoil Design for Rotor and Propeller Applications\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAbstract: An inverse design methodology for airfoil was used to design roughness tolerant airfoil for subsonic applications in propeller and helicopter rotor. Methodologies for designing airfoils were first validated with known airfoils such as the NACA airfoils, and were subsequently used for designing a family of airfoils with various thickness to chord ratios from 10% to 22% for UAV propeller and helicopter main rotor improvement applications. While designing the roughness tolerant airfoils, pressure distribution shape on the airfoils was chosen so that the adverse pressure gradient was delayed as far back on the airfoil on the upper surface as possible to delay boundary layer transition and reduce boundary layer thickness. Drag polars of smooth and rough airfoils between designed and baseline airfoils were compared and shown better drag buckets for a range of useable lift coefficients prior to propeller and rotor applications. Icing simulation was also completed to demonstrate lower ice accumulation (a natural roughness phenomenon) for the newly designed airfoils. In-house blade element-momentum and CFD tools were used to analyze propeller and helicopter rotor performance in 3D applications. The current inverse design methodology was able to successfully demonstrate a few possible applications where the airfoils are more roughness tolerant than nominal airfoils. Applications that used designed airfoils showed slightly better performance at higher thrust and lift conditions compared to nominal propeller or helicopter rotor applications. An undesirable higher nose down pitching moment was introduced with the new airfoil design due to aft shifting of loads to delay transition and reduce drag. It was observed that the new airfoils are tolerant to lower surface roughness only. Upper surface roughness tolerance still requires more investigation.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate and time: 2026-11-30, 10am-12pm\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: MK317\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee:\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Lakshmi Sankar (advisor), School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Brian German, School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Suhas Jain, School of Mechanical Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Graeme Kennedy, School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Juergen Rauleder, School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ERoughness Tolerant Airfoil Design for Rotor and Propeller Applications\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Roughness Tolerant Airfoil Design for Rotor and Propeller Applications"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:05:36","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:06:18","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-30T10:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-30T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-30T12:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-30 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-30 17:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-30 17:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"MK317","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693606":{"#nid":"693606","#data":{"type":"event","title":"MS Proposal by Sayantan Ghosh","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EStudent Name: Sayantan Ghosh\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisor: Dr. Keegan Moore\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMilestone: MS Thesis Proposal\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDegree Program: Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ETitle: A Physics-Enforced Dual-Phase Framework for Dynamics Identification in Forced Nonlinear Systems\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAbstract: System identification is critical to many engineering applications, especially those involving vibrating structures. The Energy-based Dual-phase Dynamics Identification (EDDI) method is a data-driven technique that discovers equations of motion from measured responses in compliance with physical balance laws. This work expands the original EDDI method to the identification of nonlinear single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) oscillators under external forcing. The major innovation presented here is the reformulation of EDDI to incorporate external forces into the identification process. The method is deployed in two phases to systematically extract mathematical models for the damping and stiffness of the structure. At its core, EDDI leverages conservation of energy and Newton\u2019s second law to express the measured data in a form that allows identification of the underlying dynamics. Phase I estimates the energy dissipated by damping using conservation of energy, and then uses that estimate to identify a mathematical model for the damping. Phase II applies Newton\u2019s second law to isolate the conservative force directly, which is then used to identify a mathematical model for the stiffness of the structure. The method is first demonstrated using a numerically simulated Duffing oscillator with known parameters to test the effectiveness of the proposed method. It is then applied to experimentally measured responses of a nonlinear oscillator with unknown stiffness and damping parameters, excited by a nonlinear external force through a magnetic stinger and a modal shaker. EDDI requires only the measured response, the external force, and the mass of the oscillator, and no prior information about the system dynamics is necessary\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate and time: 2026-11-11, 9am-11am\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: Weber 200 Conferce Room\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee:\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Keegan Moore (advisor), School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Graeme Kennedy, Associate Professor ,School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Alper Erturk, Professor, School of Mechanical Engineering\u003Cbr\u003E,\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EA Physics-Enforced Dual-Phase Framework for Dynamics Identification in Forced Nonlinear Systems\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"A Physics-Enforced Dual-Phase Framework for Dynamics Identification in Forced Nonlinear Systems"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:02:33","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:03:11","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-11T09:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-11T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-11T11:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-11 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-11 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-11 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Weber 200 Conferce Room","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"166866","name":"MS Proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693605":{"#nid":"693605","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense | Optimization Driven Machine Learning for Healthcare","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Optimization Driven Machine Learning for Healthcare\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDate:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Monday, November 9, 2026\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETime:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;4 PM (ET)\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ELocation:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;George Tower 1502\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EHimadri S.

However, accurate predictions alone do not guarantee better decisions. In practice, healthcare providers must make decisions with limited time, staffing, and resources. Yet these constraints are often overlooked during model development. This dissertation investigates how optimization can be integrated into machine learning to develop decision-making tools that explicitly account for these operational constraints.

Bruton\u0027s tyrosine kinase (BTK) is central to B-cell receptor signaling and is therefore an important therapeutic target in CLL. Despite the revolutionary impact of BTK inhibitors on CLL therapy, acquired resistance and treatment related toxicities are still major problems. PROTACs represent an alternative approach to therapy in that rather than simply inhibiting the activity of a disease relevant protein they work by recruiting an E3 ubiquitin ligase to promote the degradation of that protein. The development of PROTACs as therapeutics has been hampered by a lack of understanding of the molecular determinants that govern degradation, poor drug like properties and a lack of cellular selectivity. To overcome these limitations we have developed amino acid-linked PROTACs (AAL-TACs), a modular platform that incorporates a stereochemically defined amino acid linker between the target binding and E3 ligase binding ligands. This provides a platform for systematic variation of degrader structure and also provides a functionalizable chemical handle for targeted delivery. Our initial studies have shown that amino acid identity, stereochemistry and linker architecture all have a significant impact on BTK degradation with lead AAL-TACs achieving nanomolar potency. Both experimental and computational data suggest that the differences in degradation activity between stereoisomers are due to differences in ternary complex formation rather than simply differences in binary ligand affinity. The proposal aims to establish the molecular design principles that govern AAL-TAC mediated BTK degradation and to engineer delivery strategies that improve cellular selectivity. First, we will look at how the amino acid linker architecture affects target engagement, ternary complex formation and downstream CLL signaling. Second, we will develop AAL-TAC antibody conjugates that will utilize CD19 mediated recognition and internalization to deliver BTK degradation specifically to malignant B cells. Third, we will engineer AAL-TAC lipid nanodisc conjugates and assess how nanodisc architecture and SR-B1 interactions impact intracellular delivery and degradation activity. We will assess both delivery platforms for selective BTK degradation in relevant CLL models. By combining molecular engineering, chemical biology and targeted drug delivery we aim to establish a framework connecting degrader architecture to intracellular activity and cellular selectivity. The work has the potential to lead to more effective therapies for CLL and to provide broadly applicable design principles for targeted protein degradation.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDesign and development of amino acid-linked PROTACs for targeted protein degradation\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Design and development of amino acid-linked PROTACs for targeted protein degradation"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 19:42:51","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 19:43:17","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-09T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-09T16:00:31-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-09T16:00:31-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-09 19:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-09 21:00:31","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-09 21:00:31","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"N357 HSRB II ","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693600":{"#nid":"693600","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Alumni Career Journeys: There\u0027s No One Path (Virtual)","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EAlumni will share how they navigated career pivots, unexpected opportunities, and professional growth while building meaningful careers across industries. \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/WN_vlUn06mrS7mLV9iyxf263g#\/registration\u0022\u003ERegistration\u003C\/a\u003E required.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ENot every career follows a straight line.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Not every career follows a straight line."}],"uid":"36009","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 19:20:34","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 19:21:44","author":"cwhittle9","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-12-03T17:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-12-03T18:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-12-03T18:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-12-03 22:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-12-03 23:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-12-03 23:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Online","extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/WN_vlUn06mrS7mLV9iyxf263g#\/registration","title":"Register Now"}],"groups":[{"id":"1281","name":"Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts"},{"id":"1285","name":"Sam Nunn School of International Affairs"},{"id":"1282","name":"School of Economics"},{"id":"1288","name":"School of History and Sociology"},{"id":"1283","name":"School of Literature, Media, and Communication"},{"id":"1284","name":"School of Modern Languages"},{"id":"1289","name":"School of Public Policy"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJanieria Dupree\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:jdupree33@gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ejdupree33@gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693599":{"#nid":"693599","#data":{"type":"event","title":"The Carter Center Visits IAC","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDid you know that based on the last five years of compiled data, The Carter Center is the #1 public-sector employer of Ivan Allen College student interns and recent graduates?

Parent-rock chemistry and drainage conditions influence their layered structures, giving rise to different minerals, including 1:1 kaolinite and 2:1 montmorillonite, illite, and chlorite. Their mineral structure and interactions with water and ions result in multiphysics behavior that spans scales from mineral surfaces to sedimentary layers. Clay platelets develop preferential alignment and form tactoids during burial, yet the tactoid scale remains poorly explored. How do tactoid organization and hydration influence mechanical behavior? Thin bentonite films serve as analogues of organized tactoid assemblies. Microscopy, suction measurements, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mechanical testing of thin films reveal preferentially oriented fabric and hydration-dependent stiffness and tensile capacity. These measurements provide tactoid-scale properties for numerical upscaling simulations. The connection between particle arrangement and mechanics extends to large-strain friction, where platelets and tactoids align within shear zones. A curated database compiled from published studies shows that the residual friction angle generally decreases as liquid limit increases, in agreement with previous studies. However, mineralogy, fines fraction, displacement rate, and extent of shear displacement also affect the large-strain shear response. The broader relationship is conceptualized as an n-dimensional response manifold. Charged clay surfaces retain counterions such as those released from neighboring rock weathering. How are rare earth elements retained in clays? Can they be desorbed and recovered? Experiments reproduce the adsorption history to form dysprosium-bearing kaolin, as confirmed by multiphysics analytical measurements. Subsequently, clay pastes subjected to a voltage gradient show the potential of electrokinetics in mobilizing and replacing previously adsorbed rare earth elements. The external fluid chemistry affects mobilization and may lead to counter-gradient migration. While calcination causes localized booklet opening and destructuring of the octahedral layers, it locks in the high-valence ions and hinders the recovery of rare earth elements. Overall, clay pretreatment and electrolyte chemistry jointly control rare earth element accessibility, mobilization, and collection. Clay surface chemistry, particle-fluid coupling, and particle-particle interaction can be altered under extreme conditions, affecting the properties and performance of the clay mass. In particular, can intense radiation compromise bentonite buffers used in nuclear waste disposal? A comprehensive study examined bentonite specimens exposed to beta and gamma radiation doses ranging from 100 to 2000 kGy. Results show that bentonite largely preserves its surface chemistry, hydration, particle associations, and swelling potential. These findings indicate that bentonite exhibits high radiation resistance under the investigated storage conditions. Together, these studies connect the multiscale organization and multiphysics behavior of clays and provide renewed insights relevant to mechanical stability in engineering design, critical mineral recovery, and nuclear waste isolation.\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EClay-Rich Geomaterials: Implications for Infrastructure Stability, Critical Mineral Recovery, and Nuclear Waste Isolation\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Clay-Rich Geomaterials: Implications for Infrastructure Stability, Critical Mineral Recovery, and Nuclear Waste Isolation"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 19:18:49","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 19:19:21","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-11T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-11T15:00:13-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-11T15:00:13-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-11 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-11 20:00:13","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-11 20:00:13","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"SEB 122","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693597":{"#nid":"693597","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Introduction to Data Visualization in R","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJoin the Georgia Tech Library in Crosland 2130 on Thursday, Nov. 19 from 1 to 2:30 p.m. for our Introduction to Data Visualization in R workshop.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003ELearn the basics of R\u2019s data visualization library, ggplot2, to create different data visualizations.

We understand fMRI to represent a proxy of neural activity, not a true capture of real-time neuronal activation, but a time-lagged hemodynamic response. fMRI signal, both resting-state and task-based\/stimulation-evoked, has been acquired in many species, finding several preserved resting-state networks and task responses. However, there are still key gaps in cross-species fMRI experiments, including fully elucidating how arousal or wakefulness state impacts the resultant signal, establishing robust and reproducible awake mouse protocols, and the ongoing debate of time-averaged versus time-varying methods. This thesis employs several fMRI datasets spanning across species (human, mouse), field strength (3T, 9.4T), acquisition sequence (Echo Planar Imaging, EPI; Zero Echo Time, ZTE), analysis method (functional connectivity, FC; quasi-periodic pattern, QPP; complex principle component analysis, CPCA), and, most importantly, across state of wakefulness (awake, asleep, anesthetized). Using clinical data from the Emory Sleep Center that spans across diagnostic criteria for hypersomnolence disorders, I first establish the human arm of this axis. I then developed a robust protocol for acquiring awake mouse fMRI data, and from this data, established the mouse arm of this axis. This awake mouse fMRI provides the cross-species homologue for awake, resting-state human fMRI, and was tested via a feasibility study of the MitoPark mouse model. Upon completion of these individual projects, I then identified preserved resting-state and large-scale brain networks, notably the Default Mode Network (DMN), and Somatomotor Network (SMN). These network interactions acted as the basis for the proposed cross-species axis of arousal, finding tightly-coupled relationships between DMN and SMN strength and activation with state of wakefulness. This axis will hopefully act as a guide for researchers in designing future fMRI experiments, particularly pre-clinical experiments aimed at translational research.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ECross-species characterization of spatiotemporal patterns from rs-fMRI data across states of wakefulness\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Cross-species characterization of spatiotemporal patterns from rs-fMRI data across states of wakefulness"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:38:02","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:38:37","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-11T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-11T17:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-11T17:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-11 20:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-11 22:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-11 22:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"HSRB Auditorium ","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693590":{"#nid":"693590","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Hanna J.

They are less explicit about how adoption intentions form when a technology is not yet available, its operation and consequences are difficult to understand, and reliable evidence concerning performance, failure, or misuse is limited. This dissertation developed and tested the Model of Acceptance of Futuristic Technologies (MAFT) to explain early adoption intentions under these conditions of experiential and informational uncertainty. Across three studies, flying cars were used as an exemplar futuristic technology. The research program combined assessments of prior beliefs and discrete emotional responses, structural equation modeling, and pre-post simulated exposure delivered through desktop-based 360 video and immersive virtual reality. The findings indicate that prior beliefs and affective responses provided an initial interpretive framework through which perceived value, trust, and risk were evaluated. These judgments formed an affectively organized pathway associated with adoption intention, with perceived risk playing a less dominant role than originally anticipated. Although psychological distance contributed to the broader framework, the findings placed greater explanatory emphasis on affective and evaluative processes. MAFT extends technology acceptance research by explaining how people evaluate emerging technologies before meaningful experience and reliable performance evidence are available. The findings suggest that responsible communication, design, and governance should support appropriately calibrated beliefs, affective expectations, and trust by presenting realistic benefits, limitations, uncertainties, safeguards, and error modes. Such calibration may reduce both overtrust and unwarranted rejection of technological novelty.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Development and Validation of the Model of Acceptance of Futuristic Technologies (MAFT)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":" Development and Validation of the Model of Acceptance of Futuristic Technologies (MAFT)"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:13:41","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:14:08","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-13T09:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-13T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-13T11:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-13 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-13 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-13 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"JS Coon 148 or online","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693588":{"#nid":"693588","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Dar Li Dar","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJoin the Egyptian Student Association (ESA) on Sunday, November 8, at the Alumni House for a fun evening celebrating the diverse cultures of North Africa!

In the ten years that followed, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration has observed hundreds of signals from merging compact binaries. Beyond measuring the extremely small distortion of spacetime caused by a passing gravitational wave, detecting and interpreting these signals requires advanced techniques. In this talk, I discuss two aspects of GW data analysis: validating the reliability of modeled waveforms and pushing our detection sensitivity beyond the limits permitted by individual events. I begin with a review of gravitational-wave astronomy and LVK observations. I then describe a method where we compare a source-agnostic reconstruction of a gravitational wave signal to a best-fitting waveform from a template-based analysis used to infer the source\u0027s properties. This test allows us to validate the efficacy of our waveform models and establish whether they are able to accurately describe the data. I report the results of my work applying this analysis to events from the fourth LVK observing run. In the second part of this talk, I first review the gravitational wave signals produced by a deformed binary neutron star (BNS) postmerger remnant. BNS postmerger signals carry information about the dense matter within neutron star cores, and could, therefore, be a direct probe into the properties of matter under some of the most extreme conditions. However, these signals are expected to be emitted at frequencies between 1-4 kHz, where detector sensitivity is reduced, making them extremely difficult to observe. For the next LVK observing run, the probability of a confident individual postmerger detection is well below one per year. With detector improvements, and especially third-generation detectors, we expect an increase in the number of BNS inspiral detections, some of which may contain postmerger emission that is too weak to be detected on its own. I therefore introduce a method for combining signals from multiple events in their time-frequency space to enhance postmerger detection probabilities. I then describe a framework to determine the presence of a BNS postmerger signal and to measure its characteristic frequency. Finally, I present the results from a proof-of-concept simulation study using simulated signals from three models of neutron star matter.

Endoscopic imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and clinical management of many GI diseases, including GI cancers, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, its invasive nature deters individuals from recommended testing and hinders its routine use as a monitoring tool. Non-invasive tests for detection of blood and fecal biomarkers are used in the clinic, but either have poor sensitivity for early detection or poor disease specificity. For these reasons, there remains a critical unmet need for non-invasive tests for GI disease.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBreath tests are a highly attractive alternative to endoscopy because breath can be sampled non-invasively and analyzed for disease-indicating volatile organic compounds (VOCs) (\u003Cem\u003Ei.e.\u003C\/em\u003E, breath biomarkers). However, few breath biomarkers have been successfully identified due to technical and statical limitations of conventional -omic approaches. In this work, we have developed an approach to induce exhalation of breath biomarkers to diagnose and monitor GI diseases. Our strategy uses new ingestible molecular probes, which release volatile reporters upon activation by disease activity in the GI tract. Once released, reporters are rapidly cleared from the body in breath and measured via mass spectrometry.\u0026nbsp;Thus, probe ingestion induces exhalation of pre-specified volatile reporters of known mass to indicate disease activity (\u003Cem\u003Ei.e.\u003C\/em\u003E, synthetic breath biomarkers), obviating the need for biomarker discovery.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOur approach leverages dysregulated glycosidase activities, which play a central role in the pathogenesis of diverse GI diseases. The GI tract houses hundreds of distinct glycosidases from the host and microbiome that regulate gut barrier function, mucosal immunity, host-microbe interactions, and the metabolism of drugs and dietary sugars. In \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 1\u003C\/strong\u003E, I establish design principles for the ingestible probes and develop a probe to monitor the activity of a microbial glycosidase that causes drug-induced GI toxicity. In \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 2\u003C\/strong\u003E, I use the established platform to develop a probe for a human intestinal glycosidase which, when deficient, leads to a sugar malabsorption disorder. I further demonstrate how induced breath signals can be detected via novel carbon nanotube detection arrays, a low-cost alternative to mass spectrometry. Lastly, in \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 3\u003C\/strong\u003E, I demonstrate the multiplexing capabilities of our platform and assemble a volatile-barcoded probe array to induce breath biomarker signatures of mucosal injury and healing in the context of IBD.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EEngineering ingestible probes for breath-based detection of gastrointestinal diseases\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Engineering ingestible probes for breath-based detection of gastrointestinal diseases"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 15:52:08","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 15:52:38","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-11T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-11T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-11T16:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-11 19:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-11 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-11 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"EBB CHOA Seminar Room","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693574":{"#nid":"693574","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by John Stavroulakis","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDate: Thursday, November 19th\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETime: \u0026nbsp;11:00 am\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ERoom: Skiles 168\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle:\u003C\/strong\u003E On the bow lemma and higher dimensional analogs.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee\u003C\/strong\u003E: Igor Belegradek, Elena Braverman (University of Calgary), Mohammad Ghomi (advisor), Galyna Livshyts, Andrzej Swiech, Erik Verriest (ECE).\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe discuss the bow lemma or Schur comparison theorem, and in particular its higher dimensional analogs.

The results of this study were thematically analyzed and produced roughly 40 themes, which were then used to create the General Technology Mastery Scale (GTMS) through a series of factor analysis techniques. The GTMS then underwent a series of validation testing through comparisons with hypothesized covariates based on the literature (such as problem-solving, technology self-efficacy, general self-efficacy, technology acceptance, system usability, locus of control, motivation, and creativity). Finally, the GTMS was deployed in a classroom setting to assess within-subjects growth in mastery, motivation, and problem-solving ability.\u0026nbsp; This dissertation contributes a consolidation of the work done in technology mastery and fluency, in addition to providing validated psychometric measuring techniques to assess technology mastery.

Learning these interdependencies is particularly challenging in decentralized environments where raw data cannot be shared, and individual subsystems operate proprietary models that cannot be modified. This dissertation develops decentralized learning frameworks for characterizing cross-client temporal interdependencies in both linear and nonlinear dynamical systems while preserving the autonomy of individual client models. For linear systems, we establish a federated Granger causality framework that enables the discovery of unknown cross-client interdependencies. We further use this federated Granger causality\u0026nbsp;framework to investigate the propagation of estimation uncertainty and its implications for interdependency learning. For nonlinear systems, the dissertation introduces graph attention-based learning with a predefined candidate graph structure, establishing theoretical relationships between learned attention coefficients and Jacobian-based interdependencies. It further develops a complementary framework for learning nonlinear interdependencies without requiring a predefined graph skeleton, where the downstream task of root cause analysis is explored. The proposed methods are evaluated on synthetic and industrial datasets, demonstrating their utility for decentralized prediction and interdependency characterization.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDecentralized Learning of Interdependencies for Multi-Component Dynamic Systems\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Decentralized Learning of Interdependencies for Multi-Component Dynamic Systems"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 14:58:35","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 14:59:14","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-10T10:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-10T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-10T12:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-10 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-10 17:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-10 17:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Virtual via Zoom ","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693571":{"#nid":"693571","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Christopher Kraemer","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ETitle: Democratization of battery-less and sustainable computing systems\u003Cbr\u003EDate: Wednesday, November 11th, 2026\u003Cbr\u003ETime: 10am - 12pm Eastern Time\u003Cbr\u003EWhere: Coda C1215 Midtown\u003Cbr\u003EOnline: Link\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EChristopher Kraemer\u003Cbr\u003EPhD Candidate\u003Cbr\u003ESchool of Computer Science\u003Cbr\u003ECollege of Computing\u003Cbr\u003EGeorgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECommittee\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Josiah Hester(Advisor) - School of Computer Science, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Ellen Zegura - School of Computer Science, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003Cbr\u003EDr. \u0026nbsp;Umakishore Ramachandran, School of Computer Science, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Alex Adams - School of Interactive Computing, Georgia Institute of Technology\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Thomas Ball - Honorary Professor, Lancaster University \u0026amp; Affiliate Faculty, University of Washington\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAbstract\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThree pillars of democratization are equity, access, and agency. An equitable system lowers the barrier to entry for novice users and programmers. First, I show equity through Battery-free MakeCode, a compiler modification to the popular education tool Microsoft\u2019s MakeCode for micro:bit. This compiler modification analyses, reorganizes, and inserts code into a novice\u2019s program so that even someone who is just learning how to code can make a battery-free device with the BBC micro:bit. Second, access means expanding battery-less computing to hobbyists, makers, and researchers. In my paper User-directed Assembly Code Transformations Enabling Efficient Batteryless Arduino Applications, I developed a low-level binary rewriting tool to enable battery-free computing for Arduino users. This allows Arduino users to make an intermittent device with a wide array of off-the-shelf hardware. Third, education and feedback about how a battery-free device will run in the wild gives programmers agency in their development. The Intermittent Computing Energy Toolkit revisits Microsoft\u0027s MakeCode for micro:bit and overhauls its debugging and simulator environment with dynamic and static energy analysis. This analysis allows users to detect battery-free energy bugs and test their programs before deploying their device.\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDemocratization of battery-less and sustainable computing systems\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Democratization of battery-less and sustainable computing systems"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 14:55:33","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 14:56:46","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-11T10:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-11T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-11T12:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-11 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-11 17:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-11 17:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Coda C1215 Midtown","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693569":{"#nid":"693569","#data":{"type":"event","title":"BioE PhD Defense Presentation-  Vishal A.

Endoscopic imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and clinical management of many GI diseases, including GI cancers, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, its invasive nature deters individuals from recommended testing and hinders its routine use as a monitoring tool. Non-invasive tests for detection of blood and fecal biomarkers are used in the clinic, but either have poor sensitivity for early detection or poor disease specificity. For these reasons, there remains a critical unmet need for non-invasive tests for GI disease.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBreath tests are a highly attractive alternative to endoscopy because breath can be sampled non-invasively and analyzed for disease-indicating volatile organic compounds (VOCs) (\u003Cem\u003Ei.e.\u003C\/em\u003E, breath biomarkers). However, few breath biomarkers have been successfully identified due to technical and statical limitations of conventional -omic approaches. In this work, we have developed an approach to induce exhalation of breath biomarkers to diagnose and monitor GI diseases. Our strategy uses new ingestible molecular probes, which release volatile reporters upon activation by disease activity in the GI tract. Once released, reporters are rapidly cleared from the body in breath and measured via mass spectrometry.\u0026nbsp;Thus, probe ingestion induces exhalation of pre-specified volatile reporters of known mass to indicate disease activity (\u003Cem\u003Ei.e.\u003C\/em\u003E, synthetic breath biomarkers), obviating the need for biomarker discovery.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOur approach leverages dysregulated glycosidase activities, which play a central role in the pathogenesis of diverse GI diseases. The GI tract houses hundreds of distinct glycosidases from the host and microbiome that regulate gut barrier function, mucosal immunity, host-microbe interactions, and the metabolism of drugs and dietary sugars. In \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 1\u003C\/strong\u003E, I establish design principles for the ingestible probes and develop a probe to monitor the activity of a microbial glycosidase that causes drug-induced GI toxicity. In \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 2\u003C\/strong\u003E, I use the established platform to develop a probe for a human intestinal glycosidase which, when deficient, leads to a sugar malabsorption disorder. I further demonstrate how induced breath signals can be detected via novel carbon nanotube detection arrays, a low-cost alternative to mass spectrometry. Lastly, in \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 3\u003C\/strong\u003E, I demonstrate the multiplexing capabilities of our platform and assemble a volatile-barcoded probe array to induce breath biomarker signatures of mucosal injury and healing in the context of IBD.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EBioE PhD Defense Presentation- \u0026nbsp;\u0022Engineering ingestible probes for breath-based detection of gastrointestinal diseases\u0022 - Vishal A.

However, translating these technologies into clinical practice remains challenging, partly because conventional preclinical models do not fully capture the biological complexity of naturally occurring cancers. Our research integrates focused ultrasound, nanomedicine, and comparative oncology within a One-Medicine framework to accelerate therapeutic development for both human and veterinary patients. We are investigating multiple ultrasound modalities, including hyperthermia, thermal ablation, and histotripsy, and their potential to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of chemotherapy, radiation, and immunomodulatory nanomedicines. These approaches are designed not only to improve local tumor control but also to stimulate systemic antitumor immune responses and address metastatic disease. Building on mechanistic studies in preclinical models, we are translating these technologies into clinical trials involving companion animals with naturally occurring cancers through the Veterinary Research and Oncology Clinic (VROC) at UT Southwestern. This presentation will highlight our progress in developing ultrasound-based combination therapies, the challenges of clinical translation, and the opportunities offered by comparative oncology to accelerate therapeutic innovations across species.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EBIO\u003Cbr\u003EAshish Ranjan is an Endowed Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology.

Learning these interdependencies is particularly challenging in decentralized environments where raw data cannot be shared, and individual subsystems operate proprietary models that cannot be modified. This dissertation develops decentralized learning frameworks for characterizing cross-client temporal interdependencies in both linear and nonlinear dynamical systems while preserving the autonomy of individual client models. For linear systems, we establish a federated Granger causality framework that enables the discovery of unknown cross-client interdependencies. We further use this federated Granger causality\u0026nbsp;framework to investigate the propagation of estimation uncertainty and its implications for interdependency learning. For nonlinear systems, the dissertation introduces graph attention-based learning with a predefined candidate graph structure, establishing theoretical relationships between learned attention coefficients and Jacobian-based interdependencies. It further develops a complementary framework for learning nonlinear interdependencies without requiring a predefined graph skeleton, where the downstream task of root cause analysis is explored. The proposed methods are evaluated on synthetic and industrial datasets, demonstrating their utility for decentralized prediction and interdependency characterization.\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDecentralized Learning of Interdependencies for Multi-Component Dynamic Systems\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Ayush Mohanty - Machine Learning PhD Student - H.

This means that the vast majority of people on the AD continuum are in the early stages where the pathology accumulates before substantial functional impairments. The locus coeruleus (LC), the brain\u2019s principal source of norepinephrine (NE), is among the earliest regions affected by tau pathology in AD and plays a central role in regulating cognition, arousal, and brain-network function. Neuromelanin-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (NM-MRI) enables noninvasive assessment of the LC, offering a promising biomarker of disease-related changes and an anatomical reference for multimodal imaging. However, prolonged acquisition times and limited availability of NM-MRI in large neuroimaging cohorts constrain its broader application. This dissertation aims to improve the accessibility and reliability of NM-MRI of the LC through deep learning (DL) and characterize the LC\u2013NE system\u2019s response to pharmacological noradrenergic modulation in mild cognitive impairment (MCI). We develop DL frameworks to overcome key limitations in LC imaging, enabling accelerated NM-MRI acquisition that preserves LC contrast-based imaging biomarkers and extending LC localization to routinely acquired structural MRI through generative synthesis. Beyond conventional image quality metrics, these methods are evaluated for their ability to capture disease-related differences and support individualized LC localization for functional and diffusion MRI analyses. We further employ a multimodal approach to characterize the effects of noradrenergic modulation on LC contrast, functional connectivity, and neurofluid-associated physiology, integrating these imaging measures with AD-related biomarkers and cognitive function to provide a more comprehensive assessment of the LC-NE system. Together, these efforts aim to broaden and advance the use of LC imaging in clinical research while providing new insights into the structural and functional responses of the LC-NE system to noradrenergic modulation in MCI. These advances can facilitate the development of imaging biomarkers and support the evaluation of emerging therapeutic strategies for AD.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EQuantitative Analysis of the Locus Coeruleus in Alzheimer\u0027s Disease Using Multimodal MRI\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Quantitative Analysis of the Locus Coeruleus in Alzheimer\u0027s Disease Using Multimodal MRI"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-27 16:00:18","changed_gmt":"2026-10-27 16:00:53","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-09T11:00:13-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-09T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-09T13:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-09 16:00:13","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-09 18:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-09 18:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"N147 - HSRB II ","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693542":{"#nid":"693542","#data":{"type":"event","title":"DramaTech presents ART IS USELESS WHEN YOU\u0027RE BEING MAULED BY A BEAR","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EA haunting and darkly whimsical exploration of grief, guilt, and survival, ART IS USELESS WHEN YOU\u2019RE BEING MAULED BY A BEAR follows one woman\u2019s fantastical descent through memory, madness, and the stories we tell ourselves to endure loss.

It\u2019s projected to affect 112 million people by 2040, and 60-67% of the glaucomatous population are women. While elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) remains a major risk factor associated with developing glaucoma, recent work suggests that menopause is a sex-specific factor associated with glaucoma.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EStudies have found that menopause had a linear association with the timing of glaucoma diagnosis, and that early-onset menopause increases the risk of developing glaucoma later in life. Menopause has also been shown to increase intraocular pressure (IOP) \u2013 the only modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. However, the role of menopause in glaucoma development is still not well understood. To address this gap, this work characterizes the potential impact of early-onset menopause on IOP, eye biomechanics, and transcriptomic changes within the conventional outflow pathway, which is largely responsible for regulating IOP.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn a preclinical approach we modeled early-onset menopause via ovariectomy (OVX). In \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 1\u003C\/strong\u003E, we focused on determining the impact of early-onset menopause over time on IOP and aqueous humor outflow facility, which is how easily fluid can exit the eye. In \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 2,\u003C\/strong\u003E we investigated the impact of early-onset menopause on the stiffness of the segmental flow of aqueous humor (low flow and high flow) through the trabecular meshwork (TM), the major tissue regulating aqueous humor outflow within the conventional outflow pathway.

Risk equations based on chronological age and conventional clinical factors cannot fully capture accumulated CV injury among people with similar profiles. People classified as low or borderline risk may still experience major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), revealing risk heterogeneity that current approaches do not fully resolve. CV biological aging (CV-Age) is a multidimensional process shaped by intrinsic biology and lifetime environmental and psychosocial exposures. It may be reflected in cumulative subclinical injury, inflammation, fibrosis, and vascular remodeling. In this proposal, CV-Age is operationalized as an imaging-derived age estimate based on age-associated features quantified from medical images. Routine chest computed tomography (CT) and retinal photography offer complementary views of cardiovascular biology: CT captures macrovascular, structural, and cardiometabolic features, whereas retinal photographs visualize microvascular structure. Explainable artificial intelligence (AI) can quantify aging patterns from images already acquired in clinical care. The objective is to develop and evaluate CT-derived CV-Age and retinal-derived CV-Age independently, then determine whether their integration adds information beyond either modality alone. The central hypothesis is that these measures capture distinct, potentially complementary manifestations of cardiovascular aging that are associated with MACE. Aim 1 will develop CT-derived CV-Age from chest CT radiomics and evaluate its association with future MACE. Aim 2 will develop retinal-derived CV-Age from fundus oculomics and evaluate its association with future MACE. Aim 3 will test whether integrating the independently evaluated measures improves age estimation or MACE risk stratification in cohorts with linked CT and retinal imaging. This proposal will determine whether either modality or their combination adds incremental clinical value to existing risk algorithms. By transforming underused routine-image data into an individualized description of cardiovascular aging, findings from this proposal could support earlier and more personalized risk recognition.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EMultimodal Imaging Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Biological Aging\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Multimodal Imaging Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Biological Aging"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-27 12:21:15","changed_gmt":"2026-10-27 12:26:41","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-12-07T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-12-07T18:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-12-07T18:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-12-07 21:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-12-07 23:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-12-07 23:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"HSRB2-N657","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693504":{"#nid":"693504","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Christian Douglas","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Civil and Environmental Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPh.D. Thesis Defense Announcement\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EExamining the Role Of Automation Technology in Transportation Interactions: How Vehicle Affordances Affect Equity and User Well-Being\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBy: Christian Douglas\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMolecular Sciences and Engineering 1222\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/j\/94927419491\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/j\/94927419491\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E2026-11-13 11:00 AM ET\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Adjo Amekudzi-Kennedy, Dr. Sof\u00eda P\u00e9rez-Guzm\u00e1n, Dr. David Ederer, Dr. Mark Tschaepe\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAutonomous vehicles (AVs) and vehicle automation technology come in all shapes and forms. Vehicle producers are including advanced technology in new vehicles, and ride-hailing companies are deploying AVs in cities across the United States. As such, it is crucial to look across all levels of automation to evaluate the usability of vehicle automation technology and AVs. This research examines the ability of transportation features and technology to provide affordances (i.e., aspects of the environment providing functionality) to a diverse set of potential users. This work employs a variety of methodological approaches to answer the central research question of how vehicle automation technology provide affordances to human drivers. This mixed-methods, interdisciplinary research addresses this fundamental and guiding research question by (1) advancing a disciplinary understanding of equitable transportation technology; (2) gathering the insight and experience of vehicle users, designers, and regulators; and (3) utilizing a hypothetical lane reduction scenario to explore the potential affordances, and disaffordances, resulting from interactions between vehicles at varying levels of automation. Findings can be used to advise vehicle producers on inclusive vehicle design practices, inform policy guiding nascent vehicle technology, and help future researchers understand the direction these new technologies are going and the threats they can pose to individual safety and well-being.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EExamining the Role Of Automation Technology in Transportation Interactions: How Vehicle Affordances Affect Equity and User Well-Being\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Examining the Role Of Automation Technology in Transportation Interactions: How Vehicle Affordances Affect Equity and User Well-Being"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-27 12:11:38","changed_gmt":"2026-10-27 12:12:14","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-13T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-13T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-13T13:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-13 16:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-13 18:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-13 18:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Molecular Sciences and Engineering 1222","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"693503":{"#nid":"693503","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Yosia Nurhan","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003EModeling crime response to deterrence and positive incentives: existence of solutions, optimal policies, and fairness\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDate:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003ENovember 13th\u0026nbsp;, 2026\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETime:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E11 AM - 1 PM, EST\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ELocation\u003C\/strong\u003E: Guggenheim 246\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EZoom link:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgatech.zoom.us%2Fj%2F7854428648%3Fpwd%3DMjkvcHRXY2lqZVJXRS9PS1Y4dEVkZz09\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7Cannouncements%40grad.gatech.edu%7C1a4b3b3001c24f3e4e8908df341e60b3%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C1%7C0%7C639286977259925257%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=fdWYfspLNVHuzQ1hKXwdVeJ8GNbTSXCLOnx%2F%2FbPLYr0%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003Ehttps:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/j\/7854428648?pwd=MjkvcHRXY2lqZVJXRS9PS1Y4dEVkZz09\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Martin Short (Advisor)\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Sung Ha Kang\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Wenjing Liao\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Haomin Zhou\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. George Mohler\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn this work we study a model in which rational agents decide whether or not to commit crime based on a utility calculation, influenced by a judge who sets a society-wide threshold corresponding to the likelihood of an individual being found guilty and a legislator who sets a society-wide punishment level. We first study how the overall crime rate is influenced by the judge\u0027s threshold and the legislator\u0027s punishment level, propose an objective function for the judge and legislator to minimize, and study the optimal threshold and punishment levels for this objective. \u0026nbsp;We then consider the case in which the overall society is subdivided into multiple groups with varying characteristics, introducing a constraint on fairness in treatment between the groups. \u0026nbsp;We study how an optimal threshold and punishment level might be chosen under this fairness constraint, what ramifications the constraints have on outcomes for individuals, and under what circumstances the constrained optimum agrees with the unconstrained optimum. Then we introduce a new lever for the justice system in the form of positive incentives for the agents: first as a subsidy and then later as a program motivated by the Trusted Traveler Program where agents can opt in or opt out from taking the positive incentive in exchange for some extra initial investigation.
