*Keynote Lecture: Sara Burlage Associate Professor Dana-Farber Cancer Institute department of Cancer Biology Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology Harvard Medical School
ABSTRACT Deubiquitylases (DUBs) are a large family of enzymes that remove ubiquitin or ubiquitin chains from substrate proteins. Similar to other components of the UPS, DUBs have been associated with disease and pursued as drug targets. Despite enthusiasm around targeting DUBs both with inhibitors as well as DUBTACs, there remain unanswered fundamental questions around substrates and substrate scope as well as how DUBs work at a detailed mechanistic level. The overarching goal of our lab is to develop chemical tools that can be deployed to study basic function and translational potential of DUBs. Our platform integrates DUB library synthesis, medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, high-throughput screening, chemoproteomics, chemical genomics, structural biology, target validation and cancer biology. I will discuss recent discoveries enabled by our platform including new mechanism-of-action ligands for DUBs and their study in rare disease as well as new insights into DUB interplay with other components of the UPS.

Abstract: Two-sided matching platforms, including labor markets, dating apps, accommodation services, and ridesharing systems, must make matching decisions in the presence of choice congestion and strategic platform design challenges. When agents have correlated preferences, popular options can attract too much demand, reduce overall efficiency, and lead to poor market outcomes. In this talk, I will present a framework for two-sided assortment optimization that studies how a platform should decide which options to display to agents and in what order, with the goal of improving matching performance. The main focus will be on maximizing the expected number of matches under general choice models. I will describe several natural classes of platform policies, ranging from static simultaneous displays to fully adaptive sequential policies, and compare their power through adaptivity gap results. I will also discuss polynomial-time approximation algorithms for computing near-optimal policies, and then briefly discuss the revenue-maximization version of the problem, where matches generate pair-dependent rewards. This talk is based on joint works with Alfredo Torrico, Ulysse Hennebelle, and Mohammadreza Ahmadnejadsaein.

Abstract: Modern manufacturing generates increasingly rich in-situ sensing data, creating new opportunities for AI to enable automated and intelligent quality control decisions. However, conventional quality control using supervised learning relies on abundant labeled data and assumes that future product defects or process faults resemble those known during training. In practice, new defect types emerge, while abnormal conditions may be rarely observed or completely unknown. These challenges are particularly important for in-situ quality control, where defects must be detected or correctly classified for real-time decision-making, including newly emerging defects with limited or unavailable labels. Moreover, for latent defects that cannot be directly inspected online, defects must instead be predicted from indirect process-sensing signals. This requires mapping process-signal changes to possible defects despite scarce or unavailable defect training samples. This talk explores how advances in AI can address these challenges and enable more adaptive and intelligent in-situ quality control and decision-making for smart manufacturing.

Title: The Sharp Minimax Risk for High-Dimensional Uniformity Testing and Applications to Model Calibration
Abstract: Testing whether high-dimensional categorical data follow a specified distribution is a fundamental problem in statistics, learning, and theoretical computer science. We derive an expression for the asymptotic minimax risk in terms of the number of categories, the sample size, and the separation between the alternative class and the uniform distribution null. This result settles an open problem related to identity and uniformity testing in computer science and nonparametric hypothesis testing on distributions in mathematical statistics.
The sharp characterization enables comparison among competing tests at the level of exact constants rather than asymptotic rates, revealing differences invisible under standard sample-complexity analyses. Interestingly, commonly used chi-squared and collision statistics are asymptotically minimax under fixed sample sizes but fail to retain this property under Poisson sampling. We derive a new statistic that is asymptotically minimax in both settings. The proof combines ideas from signal detection in white noise with a new conditional central limit theorem that overcomes the de-Poissonization challenge.
As a practical consequence, the sharp constant answers a longstanding design question in calibration testing:
How many bins should one use when testing calibration using the probability integral transform?
We derive an explicit formula for the largest number of bins that guarantees a prescribed minimax risk, replacing heuristic bin selection by a statistically optimal design rule.
This talk is partly based on the following work, which received the best non-student paper award in an AISTATS 2026 workshop.

Title: Flow-Induced Reprogramming of Endothelial Cells under Disturbed Flow and Hypercholesterolemia during Atherogenesis
Abstract: Atherosclerosis occurs preferentially in arterial regions exposed to disturbed blood flow (d-flow), while regions exposed to stable flow (s-flow) remain atheroprotected even under hypercholesterolemia. Plaque development, however, requires both d-flow and hypercholesterolemia, and the mechanism underlying this interaction has remained unclear. This dissertation tests and defines the two-hit hypothesis that d-flow alone initiates a partial flow-induced reprogramming of endothelial cells (partial FIRE) and that the addition of hypercholesterolemia is the fuel required to drive it to complete FIRE. Single-cell RNA sequencing of arterial cells from mice subjected to d-flow alone, hypercholesterolemia alone, or their combination revealed that d-flow alone induced endothelial inflammation and endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) with only partial endothelial-to-immune-cell transition (partial EndIT), while hypercholesterolemia alone had minimal effect. In contrast, d-flow in the presence of hypercholesterolemia induced full EndIT along with a novel endothelial-to-foam-cell transition (EndFT). These findings were validated at the protein level by lineage tracing in endothelial cell (EC)-specific confetti mice, in which genetically labeled ECs co-expressed markers of inflammation, EndMT, EndIT, and EndFT in response to d-flow under hypercholesterolemia during atherogenesis. FIRE was further supported by reanalysis of human atherosclerotic plaque scRNA-seq datasets and by immunostaining of human coronary arteries. An in vitro FIRE platform, in which primary human aortic ECs (HAECs) are exposed to oscillatory shear stress (OSS) mimicking d-flow, the cholesterol metabolite 27-hydroxycholesterol, and a proinflammatory cytokine cocktail (IFN-γ, IL-1β, TNF-α, TGF-β1/2), recapitulated FIRE in vitro, including the novel EndIT and EndFT, at the transcript, protein, and functional levels. To identify which of the 1,291 FIRE-sensitive genes identified from the mouse scRNA-seq study drives FIRE, two independent yet complementary screens were performed. A CRISPRi-Perturb-seq screen targeting all 1,291 genes yielded 444,360 single ECs carrying a single unique guide across four flow conditions, including unidirectional laminar shear stress (ULS) mimicking s-flow, static, OSS, and FIRE, and an independent drug screening study using the FIRE platform identified 35 potential anti-FIRE inhibitors. The two independent gene-based Perturb-seq and drug-based anti-FIRE screening studies converged on a candidate FIRE driver pathway and its associated genes, and the leading FIRE inhibitor showed reduction of atherosclerotic plaque in vivo in mice. Together, these findings demonstrate that ECs are highly plastic and can transition to immune-like and foam-like cells in response to d-flow under hypercholesterolemia, and identify FIRE as a potential therapeutic target in atherosclerosis.]]> Tatianna Richardson117893997092026-09-14 15:28:2917893997492026-09-14 15:29:0900eventFlow-Induced Reprogramming of Endothelial Cells under Disturbed Flow and Hypercholesterolemia during Atherogenesis]]>2026-09-23T10:00:00-04:002026-09-23T12:00:00-04:002026-09-23T12:00:00-04:002026-09-23 14:00:002026-09-23 16:00:002026-09-23 16:00:002026-09-23T10:00:00-04:002026-09-23T12:00:00-04:00America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime2026-09-23 10:00:002026-09-23 12:00:00America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime<![CDATA[]]><![CDATA[Ivan Allen Advantage Speaker Series: Ed Byrns and Amy Phuong]]>36009 Join Ivan Allen College Dean Amanda Murdie for an insightful fireside chat with distinguished alumni Ed Bryns, M.S.

Title: Optimization of Sustainable Space Logistics Systems
Abstract: As human space exploration transitions from Apollo-era single-spacecraft missions to interconnected, multi-asset space systems, maximizing system performance requires collaboration among orbital assets. Long-term sustainability in these complex operations demands rigorous mathematical modeling and systematic optimization. However, extending terrestrial routing studies to space logistics is inherently challenging. Because orbital mechanics are nonlinear and nonconvex, no universal solvers exist, so problem-specific optimization frameworks are needed. This thesis presents optimization frameworks to enable sustainable space logistics systems, focusing on Earth-orbiting satellite servicing, orbital infrastructure, and resource operations. First, a mathematical formulation and solution methodology are presented to determine in-space depot placement in continuous orbital space for multi-satellite servicing, overcoming the combinatorial complexity and potential suboptimality of conventional orbit discretization. Second, multi-satellite servicing architectures with en route refueling are formulated as arc-based and path-based formulations to determine coupled decisions on visiting sequences, refueling amounts, and transfer trajectories, accompanied by a comparative analysis of the two formulations. Finally, for a space circular economy, this thesis unifies active debris removal and on-orbit servicing into an integrated orbital resource harvesting and redistribution framework, reducing reliance on supply launches from Earth. Collectively, this thesis establishes integrated optimization frameworks for continuous depot placement, satellite servicing with trajectory design and en route refueling, and in-space resource recycling, providing insights for sustainable space logistics systems.

They are impacted, however, by plasma instabilities that can degrade their performance and lifetime. Active control is an approach that can be taken to control oscillations in the load by actively compensating for them. While passive control approaches exist, some of which include adjusting the background pressure during ground testing and adjusting the harness inductance, active control better addresses instabilities that occur at the microsecond time scale in real-time. One such form is voltage control, which can vary the injected voltage to the discharge plasma in real time in order to control oscillations. This study first explores pressure control and inductance control as passive control approaches, then seeks to find a way to improve our understanding of the discharge plasma load, through a 0D ionization model along with system identification using open-loop voltage perturbations and real-time active PID control to create a discharge plasma prediction model using neural networks. We use this neural network load model to better inform and understand real-time active machine learning voltage control. This approach could help eliminate challenges with differences in performance between ground and space, as machine learning offers a way for a power processing unit to actively learn from changes in its operating environment.]]>2026-09-22T11:00:00-04:002026-09-22T13:00:00-04:002026-09-22T13:00:00-04:002026-09-22 15:00:002026-09-22 17:00:002026-09-22 17:00:002026-09-22T11:00:00-04:002026-09-22T13:00:00-04:00America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime2026-09-22 11:00:002026-09-22 01:00:00America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime<![CDATA[]]><![CDATA[Microsoft Teams Link ]]><![CDATA[Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exam - Praveen Raj Ayyappan]]>28475Title: A Systematic Design Framework for Implementing Analog Computing Systems Across Planar and FinFET CMOS Nodes

The end of Dennard’s law and the current slowdown in transistor scaling have created a power wall in digital computing, where performance gains are hindered by rising power consumption. This ultimately creates demand for innovative and efficient computing paradigms. Analog computing has shown great promise for low-power and energy-efficient computing, particularly in edge applications. However, large-scale demonstrations of these concepts remain limited due to the absence of a standardized design framework, unlike the well-established methodologies in digital computing. This work develops analog standard cells across various process nodes, extends analog synthesis tools to 16nm, and demonstrates several analog computing systems in both 16nm and 350nm process nodes. By utilizing analog standard cells and synthesis concepts, this framework enables designers without specialized analog circuit knowledge to build efficient analog computing systems. By replacing manual design methods, it accelerates the design process similar to digital design frameworks.]]>2026-09-18T10:30:00-04:002026-09-18T12:30:14-04:002026-09-18T12:30:14-04:002026-09-18 14:30:002026-09-18 16:30:142026-09-18 16:30:142026-09-18T10:30:00-04:002026-09-18T12:30:14-04:00America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime2026-09-18 10:30:002026-09-18 12:30:14America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime<![CDATA[]]><![CDATA[Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exam - Zhonghao Zhang]]>28475Title: Scalable Heterogeneous Integration for RF and mm-Wave Systems: Toward Modular and High-Performance Architectures

Then assemble your team and join Belonging and Student Support on Wednesday, Sept. 16 to compete head-to-head against your fellow peers in the ultimate engineering game show or register as an audience member and be prepared for a special full of fun, laughs, food, and games.
Competition Events
Event #1-Spaghetti Tower
In this event, competitors will be tasked with assembling a tower under tight time pressure.
Towers will be scored based on a weighted sum of height (measured by a judge) plus an audience popularity score.
For this event, participants will be given a planning phase to formulate their plan to assemble the tower. Little time will actually be given to build the tower so thinking ahead is a must!
Event #2-Write it, Do it
In this event, one team member will be provided a model and must direct the other team members to recreate a Lego structure as accurately as possible.
Judges will be provided a rubric with the model split into different "sections," and errors in each section will result in deductions.
This task requires careful communication between team members to accurately convey spatial information with limited time.
Event #3-Newspaper Chair
In this event, teams will be paired with audience members (clients) to construct a chair based on client demands. (Style, ease of use, stability, etc.)
Event judges will work with clients to ensure demands of similar difficulty. Teams' scores will be a weighted sum between audience vote and judges' evaluation of completion of the clients' demands.
Unlike other events that have already been "solved", the introduction of client demands ensures each team's task is different and requires them to parse verbal information for engineering requirements.
In addition, engineering-focused student groups are encouraged to participate in the miniature resource fair of the event. If your organization would like to table at this event, please contact Jenn Bennett, jbennett316@gatech.edu.
RSVPing on Engage will ensure you have a seat reserved as an audience member. If you would like to be a competitor in the event, fill out the form below to be considered. If you would like to be placed in a group (must be 4 members), make sure each member puts the same team name.

Recent work has demonstrated that pathways of ISOW out of the Iceland Basin are complex and variability has not been explored on interannual and longer timescales. In this study, we use the basin-scale, eddy-rich, 40-year Atlantic Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) simulation to investigate the variability in ISOW export pathways. Simulated Lagrangian particles are released within the ISOW layer at two locations along the eastern flank of the Reykjanes Ridge and classified according to their export pathway: over the Reykjanes Ridge, through the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone (CGFZ) or into the Western European Basin (WEB). We show that export over the Reykjanes Ridge exhibits variability on timescales from 2.5 years to decadal and is strongly correlated with mid-depth northward transport into the Iceland Basin forced by fluctuations in the North Atlantic Current (NAC), suggesting a link to large-scale gyre dynamics. Export through the CGFZ is characterized by variability of 2.5 – 5 years and is influenced by the meridional position of the eastward-flowing NAC within the CGFZ, which can block ISOW export and divert particles into the WEB. Export pathways are shown to exhibit a significant depth-dependence such that shallower layers are more strongly impacted by the surface circulation while deeper layers are more subject to topographic steering, results that are corroborated by utilizing observations from RAFOS floats deployed during the OSNAP campaign. Together, these findings illustrate the high-degree of variability in pathways of ISOW export and contributes to the growing body of evidence that challenges the notion of a single, dominant pathway out of the Iceland Basin.

ABSTRACT Cells migrating through tissues routinely encounter physical spaces smaller than themselves, requiring substantial deformation of both the cell and nucleus. Our laboratory is interested in how these mechanical experiences influence cell behavior, state, and fate across cancer, stem cell, and developmental systems. Using engineered microchannels, we have shown that adult stem cells can navigate highly confined spaces and that this process is accompanied by changes in differentiation-associated transcription factors and epigenetic state. We have also developed high-throughput porous confinement platforms that allow migrated cell populations to be isolated and subjected to downstream molecular profiling, providing a way to connect physical behavior with transcriptional and epigenomic changes at scale. More recently, we have extended these questions into development using primordial germ cells, which undergo striking nuclear deformation as they migrate through narrow interstitial spaces in vivo. Together, this work supports a broader view of confinement not simply as a barrier to migration, but as a potentially instructive mechanical signal that helps shape cellular identity and maturation.
BIO Andrew Holle received a Bachelor of Science, Engineering (B.S.E) from Arizona State University, where he worked in labs of Christine Pauken and Deirdre Meldrum. He then received his Ph.D. at the University of California, San Diego, where he worked in Adam Engler’s Stem Cell Biology and Bioengineering group. There, he identified the mechanosensitive role of the focal adhesion protein vinculin in substrate stiffness-induced stem cell differentiation. Looking to explore the commonalities between stem cell and cancer mechanobiology, he then joined Prof. Joachim Spatz’s Cellular Biophysics group at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research (Stuttgart, Germany). There, he used photolithography and microfluidics to build microchannel assays to better characterize cancer cell invasion and migration in confinement. His Confinement Mechanobiology lab at the Mechanobiology Institute and in the NUS Biomedical Engineering department focuses on the role of confinement in mechanobiology, with an emphasis on novel strategies for controlling stem cell differentiation.

ABSTRACT Extracellular matrix cues regulate a multitude of cellular functions, from differentiation to tissue homeostasis. During aging, the extracellular matrix undergoes substantial changes in its composition, architecture, and mechanical properties, yet how these changes contribute to age-associated cellular dysfunction remains incompletely understood. Our work focuses on defining how age-related matrix remodeling alters cell behavior and developing experimental approaches to disentangle the biochemical and mechanical contributions of the extracellular environment. This talk will highlight our studies of extracellular matrix mechanobiology across aging tissues, together with biomaterial platforms that recapitulate key matrix properties in vitro at the micro- and nanoscale. By combining measurements of native tissue mechanics with highly defined engineered microenvironments, we aim to uncover mechanisms through which the aging matrix regulates cell and tissue function and identify opportunities for matrix-based therapeutic strategies.
BIO Jennifer Young was trained as a biomedical engineer at the University of California, San Diego. During her Ph.D. with Prof. Adam Engler, she studied the role of mechanics in cardiac development and created a hydrogel system capable of mimicking dynamic tissue properties in vitro. Inspired by the role of extracellular matrix in dictating cell behavior and fate, she joined the Cellular Biophysics group of Prof. Joachim Spatz at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research to study how nanoscale extracellular matrix cues regulate cancer cell function. She established the Soft Nano-Biomaterials Lab in 2021 at the Mechanobiology Institute and Biomedical Engineering Department, National University of Singapore where her work focuses on identifying and mimicking nano-to-microscale matrix properties and unraveling their contributions to cellular behavior.

Title: Application Of Topology Optimization Methods To The Optimal Design Of High-Performance Heat Exchangers
Abstract: Heat exchangers are essential in aerospace applications, where effective thermal management is required for the reliability and performance of aircraft and spacecraft systems. These devices are required to be compact and lightweight while also operating under extreme environmental conditions. Topology optimization, which has successfully been applied to the design of efficient lightweight structures, offers the potential to create heat exchangers with unconventional configurations that enhance overall system performance. This research explores the application of topology optimization to the design of high-performance heat exchangers. The proposed methodology is divided into three key stages. The first stage focuses on the development of a topology optimization framework based on a Darcy flow formulation for pipe configuration design of bi-fluid heat exchangers, exploring how variations in inlet location and pipe sizes could enhance thermal efficiency. The second stage integrates data-driven surrogates such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) with the topology optimization framework, improving the fidelity of the predicted flow fields. The final stage advances to a full-form design of a dual-flow 3D heat exchanger with arbitrary inlet conditions. This stage examines the additional efficiency gains through a combination of organic flow paths and flexible inlet configuration. The methodology utilizes both finite element and finite volume methods for the multiphysics analysis of the system, applying discrete and continuous adjoint formulations for sensitivity analysis respectively. The design objective is to optimize thermal efficiency by maximizing the average temperature and heat transfer rate under performance constraints, such as material strain energy distribution and power requirements. The resulting framework provides an efficient approach for the design of next-generation heat exchangers and establishes a foundation for the application of topology optimization to coupled fluid-thermal-structural problems.

Towards scalable multifocal super-resolution imaging
Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy enables visualization of subdiffractional biological structure, but extending these capabilities to larger and more topographically heterogeneous specimens introduces challenges in instrumentation complexity, axial coverage, and imaging throughput. This dissertation presents the systems-level development of multifocal super-resolution microscopy platforms designed to address these limitations. First, three-dimensional multifocal scanning microscopy (3D-MSM) establishes a simplified sample-scanning architecture that achieves approximately twofold lateral and axial resolution enhancement with optical sectioning. Next, resonant multifocal scanning microscopy (RSM) incorporates rapid axial refocusing and continuous sample translation to extend super-resolution imaging across larger axial and lateral ranges while maintaining approximately twofold lateral resolution enhancement. Finally, these capabilities are integrated into an automated imaging framework that combines extended-depth large-area survey imaging, scalable computational reconstruction and analysis, coordinate-aware target selection, and targeted three-dimensional super-resolution acquisition. Together, this work advances multifocal super-resolution microscopy from localized volumetric imaging toward more scalable interrogation of complex biological and pathology-relevant specimens.

Title: Enhancing In Vivo CAR T Cell Therapy Through mRNA Delivery to Virus-Specific T Cells
Abstract: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy uses an engineered receptor that combines an extracellular antigen-recognition domain with intracellular T cell signaling domains, redirecting T cells to recognize and eliminate tumor cells independent of MHC restriction. This approach has transformed treatment for relapsed and refractory hematologic malignancies. CD19- and BCMA-directed CAR T products produce high response rates in heavily pretreated patients, with a median response rate of 66.4% across trials leading to FDA approval. Despite this efficacy, only 20% to 30% of eligible patients ultimately receive CAR T therapy. This gap stems primarily from the cost and complexity of manufacturing: each product is generated individually through leukapheresis, viral transduction, and ex vivo expansion under GMP conditions, driving per-patient costs that typically exceed $400,000 and can surpass $1 million. These constraints have shifted recent interest in the field toward in vivo engineering, in which CAR constructs are delivered directly to T cells within the patient, removing the need for ex vivo manufacturing. Current delivery strategies, however, broadly target T cells irrespective of antigen specificity or activation state. Naive T cells, a substantial fraction of the endogenous repertoire, are comparatively poor cytotoxic effectors relative to effector and memory T cells. Broad activation of the remaining repertoire can also potentially cause toxicity and break self-tolerance by activating self-reactive T cell clones. Our lab previously developed lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) surface-functionalized with peptide-major histocompatibility complex (pMHC) class I molecules, termed antigen-presenting nanoparticles (APNs), to deliver mRNA in vivo to virus-specific T cells. APNs engage the T cell receptor directly, restricting cargo delivery to T cells of a defined antigen specificity while leaving the broader T cell repertoire unperturbed. In this thesis proposal, we adapt the APN platform for in vivo CAR T cell therapy. In Aim 1, we redirect influenza-specific T cells to express a BCMA-targeted CAR in a multiple myeloma rodent model, demonstrating both APN-mediated in vivo CAR generation and the antitumor efficacy of the resulting CAR T cells. Virus-specific T cells, however, occur at low frequency within the endogenous repertoire, which limits the number of CAR-expressing effector cells generated through direct in vivo transfection alone. In Aim 2, we will use APNs to expand the target T cell population prior to in vivo CAR transfection, increasing the effector-to-target ratio to improve therapeutic outcomes. In Aim 3, we will evaluate the tolerability of APN in a non-human primate model to assess the translational potential of this approach. Successful completion of these aims will establish APNs as a platform for in vivo CAR T cell engineering, providing a lower cost alternative to ex vivo CAR T cell therapy. ]]> Tatianna Richardson117891339492026-09-11 13:39:0917891339802026-09-11 13:39:4000eventEnhancing In Vivo CAR T Cell Therapy Through mRNA Delivery to Virus-Specific T Cells]]>2026-09-22T15:00:00-04:002026-09-22T17:00:00-04:002026-09-22T17:00:00-04:002026-09-22 19:00:002026-09-22 21:00:002026-09-22 21:00:002026-09-22T15:00:00-04:002026-09-22T17:00:00-04:00America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime2026-09-22 03:00:002026-09-22 05:00:00America/New_YorkAmerica/New_Yorkdatetime<![CDATA[]]><![CDATA[CREATE-X Meet Your Cofounder]]>36896 At Meet Your Co-founder, students come together to form dynamic startup teams, across disciplines.

However, the accuracy of their hydrologic simulations is often limited by parametric uncertainties and process simplifications. In this presentation, I will present my research efforts to enhance the representation of hydrologic and hydrodynamic processes in a fully coupled ESM. Those include a differentiable river component to enable efficient spatial optimization and representation of pluvial inundation process to capture surface water dynamics. However, its coarse resolution (e.g., 50 km – 100 km) further limits their ability to simulate flooding dynamics at the scale relevant to human activities and infrastructure. To address this challenge, I contributed to the development of a new river dynamics core (RDycore) that solves two-dimensional shallow water equations, enabling efficient high-fidelity hydrodynamic simulations (e.g., 30m) at large scales. I will demonstrate this new capability using a case study of compound flooding driven by Hurricane Irene. By coupling with a regionally refined atmospheric model, a two-dimensional barotropic ocean model, and a high-resolution land surface model within an ESM, the multi-scale modeling framework captures unprecedented details of compound flooding processes in complex coastal urban environments.

Title: Internet of Things for Manufacturing: The Need for Strategy and Scalable Architecture
About the Talk:
Successful implementation of the Internet of Things for Manufacturing (IoTfM) requires strategic decisions about how manufacturing information is acquired, organized, shared, and used across the enterprise. This presentation will discuss the importance of strategy in IoTfM and how architectural decisions can affect long-term scalability and flexibility. In particular, it will explore the limitations of tightly coupled system integration and how decoupled digital architectures can provide a more sustainable foundation for connecting manufacturing systems and information.
About the Speaker:
Andy Dugenske is a globally recognized expert in the Internet of Things (IoT) and manufacturing software who helps companies turn technology into impact. An entrepreneur, he has launched two successful, profitable manufacturing software companies and continues to serve as president of one. He has also led dozens of successful industry-funded projects as Director of the Factory Information Systems Center at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Dugenske chairs the annual international Internet of Things for Manufacturing Symposium, which draws hundreds of participants, and teaches graduate-level classes. He has published academic papers and is frequently invited to speak at conferences. Deeply involved in standards organizations and trade associations, he also co-developed two widely used ANSI communication standards—Computer Aided Manufacturing using XML (CAMX) and MTConnect—which are used in more than 50 countries.

During that time, I have been inspired by a few "visions of the future," most notably that of Mark Weiser. I have often reflected on those visions many years later, and that reflection has helped to reinvigorate my own research agenda. In this talk, I will start with an example from 2015, when I had an opportunity to reflect on Weiser's vision of ubiquitous computing in the context of advances in manufacturing. The next ten years resulted in rethinking what kinds of computational devices we can and should create, with an ultimate focus on sustainable electronics. I will then reflect on some other areas where reflecting on the past can help to define future agendas in other areas of interest, specifically the impact of technology on education and on the experience of autistic individuals.

The Kendeda Building produces more energy than it uses and captures and treats its own water on site. During the tour we will walk through the systems that make that possible, including the rooftop solar canopy and net positive energy design, rainwater harvesting and on site water treatment, radiant heating and cooling paired with dedicated outdoor air systems, and the material and construction choices required for Living Building Challenge certification. This is a chance to see the HVAC, energy, and water concepts covered in class working together in a real occupied building.
Lunch will be provided, along with a short introduction to the ASHRAE Georgia Tech Student Branch and what we have planned for the rest of the semester, including the 2026 ASHRAE Region IV Student Summit hosted here at Georgia Tech in October.
Details Date: Thursday, September 24, 2026 Time: 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM Location: Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design, 422 Ferst Drive NW. Meet in the main lobby. Who: Open to all Georgia Tech students. All majors welcome and no prior experience is needed.

Title: Making the Great Desert Bloom
Abstract: Quantum Field Theory is the language that unites particle physics, nuclear physics, condensed matter physics and mathematics. One particular interesting class of quantum field theories are "Chern-Simons" theories living in 2 spatial dimensions. They found a powerful role in mathematics decades ago and have been employed to describe the physics behind the quantum Hall effect. After reviewing some of these developments at the interface of particle and condensed matter physics, I will describe a recent application to the world of particle physics, where Chern-Simons matter theories may be the right language to describe the great desert between the weak scale and the Planck scale.
Bio: Andreas Karch is a professor of Physics at UT Austin, where he moved after being on the faculty for close to 20 years at the University of Washington in Seattle. He works on string theory and formal quantum field theory with an eye towards applications in other areas of physics. He did his undergraduate studies at the University of Wuerzburg in Germany, received an MA from UT Austin, his PhD from Humboldt University in Berlin, and did postdocs at MIT and Harvard. He is a fellow of the APS and a PI on the Simons Collaboration on Ultra Quantum Matter.

Kicking off GTVC's educational series with a crash course on venture capital: what VC actually is, key players (LPs, GPs, and angels), a brief history from AR&D in 1946 to today's AI boom, and the fund types that drive the industry (seed, early-stage, growth equity). We'll break down the power law with a hands-on game, look at real portfolio wins and misses from Sequoia Capital, and cover why VC matters to the broader economy. No experience required, just curiosity about how startups get funded. All students are welcome!

This kickoff marks the start of the semester for both our new cohort members and our returning Research members, and GTVC exists to help students understand venture capital as an industry, build the skills to break into VC and related careers, and give Georgia Tech founders a clearer view of the investor perspective, whether you're brand new to VC, actively pursuing a career in it, building a startup, or just curious about the private markets ecosystem.
At kickoff, we'll introduce GTVC's mission and structure, meet the Executive Board, walk through this semester's core programming (Educational Series, Speaker Series, the Due Diligence Program, socials, and more), and share what to expect and how to get involved, including a look at what's ahead for the Research track this semester.
Come meet the community, learn what's ahead this semester, and see what it means to start thinking like an investor! All students are welcome!

Abstract: Recent advances in neuroimaging have produced massive and heterogeneous datasets, ranging from fMRI with high spatial resolution to EEG with high temporal resolution, characterized by complex spatiotemporal correlations and substantial inter-subject variability. Traditional regression models and Gaussian process (GP) approaches with fixed parametric kernels often fail to model such complex data effectively while maintaining scalability and interpretability. This talk introduces a family of modern Bayesian GP frameworks that integrate deep kernel learning, neural network priors, and geometric modeling for large-scale neuroimaging analysis. An example is the Deep Kernel Learning Process (DKLP), which embeds deep neural networks within GP priors to learn data-adaptive covariance structures directly from imaging data. DKLP provides a unified modeling foundation for image-on-scalar, scalar-on-image, and image-on-image regression, supported by theoretical guarantees and efficient posterior computation. Applications to fMRI data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study reveal reproducible cortical activation patterns associated with cognitive ability, while analyses of EEG-based brain–computer interface data demonstrate robust neural decoding under high noise. I will also discuss scalable heat-kernel GPs on manifolds and thresholded GP–based spatially varying neural network priors, which together expand the scope of Bayesian inference for complex neuroimaging data.

To counter foreign dominance in critical minerals, semiconductors, and advanced manufacturing, Washington is deploying geoeconomic tools—from targeted tariffs to major investment frameworks with key allies like Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. However, executing this strategy introduces complex real-world challenges, highlighted by recent labor and supply chain friction right here in Georgia. Successfully securing these vital industries requires new frameworks that align global alliance goals with local workforce and economic realities.
The American Southeast sits at the exact intersection of these trends. With its expanding industrial footprint, world-class port infrastructure, and major investments in battery and automotive manufacturing, the region is uniquely positioned to drive U.S.–East Asia supply chain integration. This symposium brings together international diplomats, policy experts, and regional leaders to examine how Washington, its Indo-Pacific partners, and the Southeast can collaborate to advance economic security and technological leadership.
Keynote Speaker
A framing perspective on how geoeconomics and strategic supply chain resilience are reshaping U.S. foreign policy and Indo-Pacific security.
Patrick Cronin (Asia-Pacific Security Chair, Hudson Institute)
Expert Panel: East Asian Perspectives on the New Geoeconomic Landscape
Practitioners from Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea share ground-level insights on semiconductor integration, rare earth supply chain models, and balancing commercial ties with alliance commitments.

The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans support graduate students who are immigrants or the children of immigrants. Unlike most national fellowships, the program is open to every field and every type of full-time graduate or professional degree. Fellows also join a lasting community of New American leaders and attend an annual fall conference in New York City.
What the award provides
Up to $90,000 in total support over one to two years of graduate study.
Half of tuition and fees, up to $10,000 per semester.
A stipend of up to $25,000 per year.
All expenses paid for attendance at the Fellowship's annual Fall Conference.
Who qualifies as a New American?
The program defines a New American as an immigrant or the child of immigrants. You may be eligible if you were born abroad and are a naturalized U.S. citizen, were adopted by American parents and granted citizenship, hold a valid green card, have been granted asylum or refugee status, or graduated from both high school and college in the United States — this last category includes DACA recipients.
If you are a U.S. citizen by birth, you may be eligible if both of your birth parents were born abroad as non-citizens and were not eligible for U.S. citizenship at birth, or if you were raised by one immigrant parent with no contact from the other parent.
Eligibility criteria are specific, and students often screen themselves out incorrectly. Review the full requirements at pdsoros.org/eligibility before deciding you do not qualify.
Additional requirements
Must be 30 years or younger as of the application deadline. There is no minimum age.
Must hold a bachelor's degree by fall 2027.
Must be enrolled in, or applying to, a full-time degree-granting graduate or professional program at a U.S. institution.
Online programs are eligible.
Cannot have begun the third year of the graduate program you are applying to support.
First- and second-year students are eligible.
Fellows may not hold full-time employment during their studies and must maintain good academic standing.
Programs that are not eligible
Executive graduate programs, joint bachelor's/master's programs in which both degrees are awarded simultaneously, certificate programs, post-baccalaureate programs, and programs at institutions outside the United States.
Selection timeline
October 29, 2026 — Application closes, 2:00 p.m. ET Mid-January 2027 — Finalists notified February 2027 — Interviews March 2027 — Winners announced Fall 2027 — Fellowship begins

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy enables visualization beyond the diffraction limit, but most existing methods still rely on conventional frame-based detectors that integrate fluorescence signals and compress their temporal evolution. This proposal will develop an event-driven neuromorphic super-resolution microscopy framework that exploits the precise timing and threshold-crossing dynamics of event cameras as an additional source of spatial information for resolution enhancement. The work will first establish how controlled fluorescence changes are encoded into temporally evolving event responses and develop a physics-guided reconstruction algorithm based on this event-domain PSF evolution. The resulting reconstruction will then be implemented and optimized on an edge-computing platform to reduce processing latency and support real-time or near-real-time imaging. Finally, the system will be validated in progressively more demanding biological applications, including fixed subcellular structures, high-speed live-cell dynamics, and functional calcium imaging driven by intrinsic fluorescence changes under continuous illumination. Successful completion of this research will establish detector-level temporal encoding as a new dimension for super-resolution microscopy and provide a unified platform that combines improved spatial resolution, high temporal sensitivity, and efficient computation for biological imaging.

Investigating the Role of Added Mass in Fall Risk During Pregnancy
Pregnant people fall at a similar rate as women over the age of 70. Falls are the second-most common cause of trauma-related hospitalizations in pregnancy. Despite their prevalence and danger, we do not yet have a clear understanding of why falls happen during pregnancy, which means we also do not know how to prevent them. This proposed thesis aims to isolate one potential cause of instability in pregnancy: added mass. This will be done through a combination of computational modelling, experimental data collection in non-pregnant participants with worn added mass, and experimental data collection in pregnant participants. Aim 1 will characterize the effects of adaptation to added mass during perturbed standing balance using a dynamics-based computational model of an inverted pendulum on a cart with adjustable added mass. Aim 2 will determine the effects of front-loaded added mass during perturbed standing balance in non-pregnant participants using support surface translations while recording motion capture, electromyography, and force plate data. Aim 3 will determine the neuromechanical effects of pregnancy on perturbed standing balance using the same support-surface translations and measurement tools. This thesis will be a step towards understanding what can be done to reduce the occurrence of falls in pregnant people.

“What Stops Menstrual Bleeding? From Spiral Arteriole Hemodynamics to Heavy Menstrual Bleeding” - Raphaelle Dodart, Ph.D. Student, David Ku, Advisor
Abstract
Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is common, but the mechanisms that control blood loss during menstruation remain poorly understood. Computational analysis of menstrual blood loss and uterine vascular anatomy suggests that spiral arterioles are a plausible major source of menstrual bleeding. The high shear rates generated within these small vessels may also favor shear-induced platelet aggregation (SIPA), providing a potential mechanism for rapid hemostasis following endometrial shedding. An ongoing clinical study at Georgia Tech examines whether dysfunction in SIPA and primary hemostasis is present in a subset of women with HMB. This work connects spiral arteriole hemodynamics with clinical measurements of hemostatic function to better understand why menstrual bleeding becomes excessive in some women.
“Synthetic Notch Circuits Enable In Vivo Measurement of Endogenous Forces on Immune Cell Receptors” - Menglan Li, Research Scientist, Georgia Tech
Abstract
Understanding how mechanical forces influence the signaling pathways of immunoreceptors is essential for advancing research in immunology and immunotherapy. Despite in vitro evidence of endogenous forces exerted by immune cells on immunoreceptors, in vivo measurement has been challenging due to technological limitations. Here, we present a novel technology platform based on synthetic Notch (SynNotch) circuits, enabling in vivo reporting of cell-generated forces on specific receptors. Our platform utilizes the mechano-sensitive properties of the Notch receptor, re-engineering it by replacing its ligand-binding domain with a single-chain variable fragment (scFv) of an antibody targeting the receptor of interest. The SynNotch receptor's activation induces the expression of a reporter gene. By adoptively transferring receiver cells expressing SynNotch into animals, we can measure the forces exerted by sender cells on the target receptor in vivo. We validated this platform using T cells as receiver cells and B cells as sender cells, with CD40 as the target receptor. Our results showed that B cells exert forces on CD40-SynNotch bonds, leading to the activation of SynNotch at forces around 2.4 pN per bond, increasing to a plateau at approximately 6.4 pN per bond. This mechanotransduction significantly influenced B cell signaling. This technology provides a powerful tool for investigating receptor-mediated mechanosensing and mechanotransduction in various biological contexts.

Title: Exploring many-body excitons with resonant inelastic X‑ray scattering
Abstract: Excitons—correlated electron–hole pairs—play a central role in the optical and electronic properties of solids. In quantum materials, strong electronic correlations and exchange interactions can produce unconventional many-body excitons whose momentum dependence, symmetry, and coupling to magnetism remain poorly understood. In this talk, I will show how resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) [1], with its combined sensitivity to energy, momentum, and excitation symmetry, provides a powerful view of these states. I will discuss magnetically propagating Hund’s excitons in NiPS3 [2], dispersive dark excitons in CrI3 [3], and anisotropic excitonic states in CrSBr [4]. Together, these results illustrate how excitons can encode and transmit the intertwined spin, orbital, and charge character of quantum materials. I will conclude with an outlook on using ultrafast pump–probe RIXS to create and track such states away from equilibrium.
Bio: I am the X-ray Scattering Group Leader at Brookhaven and run a research program that focuses on resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) of quantum materials. My research interests include complex oxides, strongly spin–orbit-coupled materials, quantum heterostructures, non-equilibrium states, and topology in crystalline materials. I earned my PhD from the University of Cambridge in 2010. My work has been recognized with a Department of Energy Early Career Award in 2014 and the Distinction of Tenure from Brookhaven in 2022, and I currently serve on the editorial board of Physical Review X.

This talk emphasizes their interpretation as dynamic partial differential equations that transport the data distribution to a known prior via a learned velocity field. That viewpoint exposes their theoretical underpinnings and grounds our discussion of some key issues and current progress. (1) Scientific data often lies on a lower-dimensional constraint set, where no ambient density exists and both scores and Jacobian log-determinants blow up; I present a constraint-aware perturbation that restores stable training and then show where its guarantees stop. (2) The velocity field's regularity at the endpoints, (3) the gap between an objective whose exact minimizer memorizes and models that nonetheless generalize, and (4) the relationship between straight trajectories and optimal ones have all seen recent answers. The talk will illustrate those results and some open issues with numerical examples.

School of Psychological and Brain Sciences – Ph.D. Dissertation Defense Meeting
Title: The Computation of Confidence in Perceptual Decision-Making
Abstract: This dissertation investigates the computational mechanisms underlying confidence in perceptual decision-making through three related studies. Study 1 uses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to establish when confidence is computed, revealing that the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) contributes to confidence during a broad temporal window overlapping with decision-making. Study 2 tests competing computational theories — Bayesian Confidence Hypothesis (BCH) versus Confidence in Raw Evidence Space (CRES) — in two-choice tasks, finding consistent support for evidence-based rather than probability-based confidence computation. Study 3 extends this investigation to multi-alternative decisions using a novel dot numerosity paradigm, demonstrating that confidence tracks the difference between the two highest evidence values rather than choice probability. Together, these studies advance a mechanistic framework in which confidence emerges in parallel with decisions and operates on sensory evidence rather than probability estimates.
