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.

Building on these efforts, the proposed future work will further investigate systematic characterization of the cyber-physical attack space under varying adversary capabilities, with a focus on connecting theoretical attack analysis to realizable interactions with physical systems and characterizing attack consequences based on their severity and recoverability.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Toward Resilient Cyber-Physical Systems: From Software Supply Chain Security to Physical Process Recovery"}],"uid":"28475","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 20:14:14","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 20:15:34","author":"Daniela Staiculescu","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":"Room C1003, CODA","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"434371","name":"ECE Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exams"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"},{"id":"1808","name":"graduate students"}],"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":""}},"693634":{"#nid":"693634","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exam - Onur Kilic","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle:\u0026nbsp; \u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cem\u003ECardiac and Morphological Phase in Wearable Cardiovascular Signals: Robust Estimation, Signal Transformation, and Physiological Assessment\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr.\u0026nbsp;Inan, Advisor\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Aghazadeh, Chair\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Shah\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe objective of this research is to establish phase as a reliable and informative representation for wearable cardiovascular signals. These signals are quasiperiodic, with recurring cycles whose duration and waveform morphology vary with physiology, activity, and measurement conditions. Phase provides a natural representation of progression through these changing cycles, enabling the timing of recurring physiological events and the structure of the waveform between them to be studied within a common framework. Two complementary notions of phase are particularly relevant to cardiac signals. Cardiac phase describes progression between recurring physiological landmarks, such as successive R-peaks in an ECG, and therefore captures the timing of the cardiac cycle. Morphological phase, in contrast, is derived directly from the waveform through its analytic representation and describes progression through the signal\u0027s oscillatory morphology. Although both characterize cyclic progression, they encode different aspects of cardiovascular dynamics. Our completed research develops methods that make these two representations more reliable and useful for physiological signal analysis. HIKAF leverages cardiac cycle timing and HR information to track mechanical events in the SCG despite variations in physiology and signal quality. The CGFM method represents physiological waveforms in terms of morphological phase and amplitude to learn transformations between signal modalities while preserving their cyclic structure. The StHT improves morphological phase estimation by identifying and locally correcting instabilities that arise in low-amplitude regions. Collectively, these studies establish tools for robust event tracking, waveform transformation, and phase estimation, providing the methodological foundation for investigating how different notions of phase interact. The proposed research will examine how cardiac and morphological phase relate within and across cardiac cycles. We hypothesize that differences between them capture physiological information that neither represents alone. We will first characterize whether these relationships are consistent across individuals, sessions, sensing modalities, and physiological conditions, and separate physiological differences from variability due to waveform morphology, signal quality, and phase estimation. We will then evaluate whether the relationships reflect physiological state and support downstream monitoring tasks, beginning with controlled recordings and extending to additional datasets and free-living recordings where appropriate.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Cardiac and Morphological Phase in Wearable Cardiovascular Signals: Robust Estimation, Signal Transformation, and Physiological Assessment"}],"uid":"28475","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 19:54:14","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 19:55:56","author":"Daniela Staiculescu","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-10-30T15:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-10-30T17:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-10-30T17:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-10-30 19:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-10-30 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-10-30 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Room 230, CODA","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"434371","name":"ECE Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exams"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"},{"id":"1808","name":"graduate students"}],"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":""}},"693633":{"#nid":"693633","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exam - Ritik Raj","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle:\u0026nbsp; \u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cem\u003EWorkload-Aware Hardware-Software Co-Design for Efficient Agentic AI on Heterogeneous CPU-Accelerator Systems\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr.\u0026nbsp;Krishna, Advisor\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Mahajan, Chair\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Hao\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Huang\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Wang\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe objective of the proposed research is to improve the end-to-end efficiency of agentic AI systems through workload-aware hardware\u2013software co-design.

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.

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).

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":""}},"693620":{"#nid":"693620","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Alex Butler","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAlex Butler\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisors: Josh Kacher and Aaron Stebner\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003Ewill defend a doctoral thesis entitled,\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EInfluence of Heterogeneous Particulate Reinforcements on Deformation and Damage in Aluminum Composites Formed by Reactive Additive Manufacturing\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\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\u003EThursday, November 12, 2026\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E12 pm \u2013 2 pm\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E-------------\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003Eor virtually via Teams:\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EJoin:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/248266455555984?p=93WUJ1utqZm4Pd8eD9\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022 title=\u0022Meeting join\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003Ehttps:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/248266455555984?p=93WUJ1utqZm4Pd8eD9\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EMeeting ID: 248 266 455 555 984\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;

However, incomplete reactions contribute to heterogeneous microstructures containing variations in particle size, shape, composition, and spatial distribution, which can influence deformation and fracture behavior.

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.

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. The third part introduces a mixed-integer optimization framework for ranked feature selection that optimizes feature rankings simultaneously across multiple resource budgets, accounting for feature acquisition costs and the predictive value of each successive feature set. The final part addresses the dynamic allocation of scarce healthcare resources among pediatric patients whose clinical conditions evolve over time. It proposes a multi-action restless multi-armed bandit framework and a decision-focused learning approach that combines neural networks and long-run resource planning to coordinate clinical interventions under resource constraints.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETogether, these contributions advance a shift in healthcare AI from \u201cWhat can we predict?\u201d to \u201cWhat actions should we take and for whom, given the resources available?\u201d\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EOptimization Driven Machine Learning for Healthcare\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Optimization Driven Machine Learning for Healthcare"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:13:47","changed_gmt":"2026-10-29 14:42:34","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-09T16:00:21-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-09T18:00:21-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-09T18:00:21-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-09 21:00:21","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-09 23:00:21","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-09 23:00:21","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"George Tower 1502","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":""}},"693608":{"#nid":"693608","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Maugan Lloyd","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EName: Maugan Lloyd\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESchool of Psychological and Brain Sciences\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EPh.D. Dissertation Defense Meeting\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETime:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003EMonday November 9th, 2026 9am\u0026nbsp;Eastern Time\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ELocation:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Room 150 or \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgatech.zoom.us%2Fj%2F94024313801\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7Cannouncements%40grad.gatech.edu%7C1370a7b56f2e49feb49e08df35b54a40%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C1%7C0%7C639288724892843684%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=YcplzyOzGTt%2BlUqW32bVbpScMgbh7wg5nikYvBMXfPI%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\u0022 title=\u0022Original URL: https:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/j\/94024313801.

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.

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. 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 third part introduces a mixed-integer optimization framework for ranked feature selection that optimizes feature rankings simultaneously across multiple resource budgets, accounting for feature acquisition costs and the predictive value of each successive feature set. The final part addresses the dynamic allocation of scarce healthcare resources among pediatric patients whose clinical conditions evolve over time.

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.

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.

This proposal presents predictive modeling frameworks that increase spacecraft awareness and resilience. The first aim of this work addresses navigation challenges from extended periods of radio communication outages. Global LSTM-based architectures were benchmarked with ARIMA architectures to model GPS satellites\u2019 clock bias for extended 6-hour horizons at \u0026lt; 2 ns accuracy. The second aim of this proposal transitions to mobile vehicle uncertainty awareness from proprioceptive sensor information. To mitigate the limitations of exteroceptive sensors, this aim demonstrates an uncertainty-aware terrain classification mechanism based on an evidential deep learning architecture. Extracting accurate uncertainty from out-of-distribution sensor data provides further insight into system faults and terrain hazards. The final aim of this proposed work integrates the uncertainty-aware mechanism into an adaptive extended Kalman filter to achieve real-time state estimation in the Husky A200. This capability will be demonstrated by dynamically scaling the EKF\u2019s measurement noise covariance matrix in ROS Gazebo as the mobile robot traverses pre-defined trajectories with varying friction characteristics to represent different terrain types. Together, these aims deliver a comprehensive framework capable of safe and reliable state estimation resilient to dynamic environments and unexpected sensor faults.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EResilient Navigation and Perception to Increase Autonomy in Space Systems\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Resilient Navigation and Perception to Increase Autonomy in Space Systems"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:55:41","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:56:15","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-10-28T14:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-10-28T15:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-10-28T15:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-10-28 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-10-28 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-10-28 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"TEAMS","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":""}},"693593":{"#nid":"693593","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Proposal by  Camille Jones","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ECamille Jones\u003Cbr\u003EBME PhD Proposal Presentation\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate: 2026-10-28\u003Cbr\u003ETime: 12:00pm\u003Cbr\u003ELocation \/ Meeting Link: HSRB I Auditorium \/ \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/emory.zoom.us\/j\/97696330685\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/emory.zoom.us\/j\/97696330685\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee Members:\u003Cbr\u003EJames Dahlman, PhD (Advisor); Hyejin Kim, PhD; Felipe Quiroz, PhD; Simone Douglas-Green, PhD; M.G.

However, no FDA-approved RNA-LNP therapies target the lung. Recent mRNA-LNP clinical trials for cystic fibrosis have failed due to tolerability and efficacy issues and were administered via inhalation. Systemic lung delivery avoids many of the physical barriers in diseased lung states that limit inhaled therapies, but clearance by the liver causes systemically administered LNPs to accumulate there. Incorporating positively charged components is the traditional way to achieve systemic pulmonary delivery of RNA-LNPs and reduce liver delivery. Although effective for developing lung-targeting LNPs, positively charged lipids can be toxic. In this work, I propose developing and characterizing safe, efficacious positively charged LNP formulations that target lung epithelial cells. First, I engineered LNP formulations optimized for pulmonary delivery in mice. Next, I characterized the physicochemical properties and safety profiles that govern the clinical translatability of pulmonary LNPs. Finally, I evaluated the biodistribution, functional delivery, and tolerability of optimized pulmonary LNP formulations in end-of-life non-human primate models. This work presents preclinical data for a novel pulmonary-targeted LNP, providing the field with a clinically relevant intravenous delivery vehicle for a myriad of pulmonary diseases.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EClinically relevant lipid nanoparticles for pulmonary delivery\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Clinically relevant lipid nanoparticles for pulmonary delivery "}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:50:19","changed_gmt":"2026-10-28 17:50:53","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-10-28T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-04T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-04T15:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-10-28 16:00:00","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":"HSRB I Auditorium ","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":""}},"693592":{"#nid":"693592","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Lauren Daley","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ELauren Daley\u003Cbr\u003EBME PhD Defense Presentation\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate: 2026-11-11\u003Cbr\u003ETime: 3:00pm\u003Cbr\u003ELocation \/ Meeting Link: HSRB Auditorium or \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/emory.zoom.us\/j\/99567578053\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/emory.zoom.us\/j\/99567578053\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee Members:\u003Cbr\u003EShella Keilholz, PhD (advisor); Lynn Marie Trotti, MD; John Oshinski, PhD; Candace Fleischer, PhD; Vince Calhoun, PhD\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ETitle: Cross-species characterization of spatiotemporal patterns from rs-fMRI data across states of wakefulness\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAbstract:\u003Cbr\u003EFunctional MRI (fMRI) is vitally important to the field of neuroscience; several key findings cite fMRI studies as primary evidence to support those claims. 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":""}},"690756":{"#nid":"690756","#data":{"type":"event","title":"2026 Bio Vendor Showcase","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience (\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/research.gatech.edu\/bio\u0022\u003EIBB\u003C\/a\u003E) and the Bioengineering and Bioscience Unified Graduate Students (\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/bbugs.gatech.edu\/\u0022\u003EBBUGS\u003C\/a\u003E) are hosting a Bio Vendor Showcase -

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. Finally, \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 3\u003C\/strong\u003E assessed the transcriptomic changes within the TM induced by early-onset menopause to elucidate potential transcriptional mechanisms driving these functional changes. This work fills an existing gap in the field regarding the effects of early-onset menopause on parameters associated with glaucoma.

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.

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.

can perform dexterous manipulation across a variety of environments. However, some environments present challenges due to limitations in function, distance, and scale. In many of these cases, access can be restored through the use of a telerobot. Dexterous manipulation via a telerobot is feasible only if it can effectively extend the user\u2019s inherent sensorimotor control scheme to the distal environment. In this talk, I will discuss research from our lab that explores the intricate relationship between touch perception, sensorimotor control, and telerobotics in both healthy and impaired individuals. Specifically, I will focus on our efforts to 1) restore \u201cneurally efficient\u201d control in upper-limb prosthetics, 2) enhance skill learning and skill transfer in robotic minimally invasive surgical training, and 3) assess and augment touch perception in healthy and impaired sensorimotor systems. Throughout, I will emphasize the need for increased collaboration between engineers and neuroscientists to deepen our understanding of these long-standing societal challenges and move closer to long-term solutions.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003EJeremy D.

Computational modelling tools such as Finite Element Analysis, Computational Fluid Dynamics, and Fluid-Structure Interaction offer relatively inexpensive and noninvasive methods to investigate the relationships between CVD etiology and underlying physiology and biomechanics. In the clinic, modelling tools can be employed to optimize clinical management or to plan interventional procedures, improving patient outcomes in the setting of CVD. In this work, novel multifidelity modelling frameworks for pre-procedural risk stratification of transcatheter valve replacement (TAVR) and anomalous aortic origin of the coronary arteries (AAOCA) are developed and applied retrospectively to model outcomes in real patient cohorts. A one-way fluid-structure interaction pipeline is used to correlate post-TAVR hemodynamics with hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) in a cohort of 23 patients, and a tunable one-dimensional fluid-structure interaction model of anomalous aortic origin of the coronary arteries is employed to predict deformation dynamics and flow restriction in 7 AAOCA patients. These frameworks take as input readily available pre-procedural clinical data and provide insight into post-procedural biomechanical state, providing the framework for future clinical risk-stratification and procedural pipelines.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EMultifidelity Hemodynamic Frameworks for Patient-Specific Risk Assessment in Transcatheter Cardiac Interventions and Congenital Heart Defects\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Multifidelity Hemodynamic Frameworks for Patient-Specific Risk Assessment in Transcatheter Cardiac Interventions and Congenital Heart Defects"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-26 17:06:18","changed_gmt":"2026-10-26 17:06:54","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-06T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-06T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-06T16:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-06 20:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-06 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-06 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"IC 215","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":""}},"691558":{"#nid":"691558","#data":{"type":"event","title":"IRIM Fall 2026 Seminar | Physical Intelligence for Physical Care: Towards Stakeholder-Informed Caregiving Robots in the Real World","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract: \u003C\/strong\u003EHow can we build robots that meaningfully assist people with mobility limitations in their daily lives?

However, based on the benchmark studies and model release announcements revealed that even the newest released or largest models tend to carry some weaknesses despite the unique strengths, indicating no one model can be the persistent winner in generalization performance across all tasks. Complementing this, user-generated queries tend to have varying complexity and involve simple common knowledge tasks or complex reasoning or specific domain knowledge. For simple queries involving superficial understanding, smaller models can do a perfect job at a minimal cost. Hence, there is a challenge in adequately choosing a model or group of models based on the client-user constraints and the downstream learning tasks at hand. This dissertation is dedicated to tackling the above grand challenges by designing and developing innovative methodologies, algorithms, and optimizations in selecting, refining, and integrating multiple gen-AI models.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOur research began with a comprehensive empirical study, which led to three observations: First, in classical few-shot learning methods, ensemble gains come largely from two channels: structural (model architecture) and geometric (distance metric) diversity\u2013motivating heterogeneous model selection. We later found that the same holds for modern few-shot learners such as LLMs and VLMs. Second, larger heterogeneous ensemble teams may not necessarily offer better generalization performance, because some members make redundant predictions that add inference cost without adding new information. Third, the language models and vision models require different multi-stage representation learning to effectively capture duplicated learning capabilities. Motivated by these observations, we have made four novel and fundamental contributions:\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EFirst\u003C\/em\u003E, we have developed a novel diversity computation framework that can be tailored for both language and vision representation learning to capture the disagreement correlation among multiple gen-AI models (LLMs, LVMs, and VLMs).\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003ESecond\u003C\/em\u003E, we have designed the first of its kind diversity-optimized ensemble pruning framework, which supports LLM and VLM ensemble pruning. The pruning utilizes genetic search optimization on introduced metrics: the focal-diversity metric and focal Central Kernel Alignment (CKA) to identify informative complementary representations for vision-language ensemble pruning.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EThird\u003C\/em\u003E, we study learning-to-combine architectures and develop two diversity-optimized ensemble fusion methods. The first is a supervised approach that uses diversity-driven pruning to select an ensemble team offline and then learns to fuse its outputs, achieving stronger generalization than state-of-the-art methods. The second selects the team and fuses outputs dynamically at inference time, using a two-stage reinforcement learning framework.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EFinally\u003C\/em\u003E, we address model routing and fusion through joint optimization, learning how to \u003Cem\u003Eselect\u003C\/em\u003E, \u003Cem\u003Ereason\u003C\/em\u003E, and \u003Cem\u003Erefine\u003C\/em\u003E\u0026nbsp;across multiple VLMs. We develop two routing systems trained with reinforcement learning. The first starts from prior beliefs about each VLM\u2019s performance: a routing policy chooses which model to consult, and a fusion policy decides whether to keep consulting or answer. The second targets physical reasoning in real-world scenes: it matches the skills a query requires to each VLM\u2019s perception strengths, routes to models in sequence, and refines a lightweight policy using critiques from a tool-augmented critic that extracts visual clues. In both lines of work, we compare our approaches against widely used AI chatbots and show that our approaches succeed in real-world scenarios where existing models often fail.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECollectively, these contributions offer new ways to build teams of diverse AI models that reason together, combine their outputs, and verify their answers. Such methods become increasingly important as the number and variety of large-scale models continue to grow.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EAdaptive and Robust Model Fusion for Multi-Modal Learning Systems\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Adaptive and Robust Model Fusion for Multi-Modal Learning Systems"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-26 16:55:35","changed_gmt":"2026-10-26 16:56:02","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-23T13:00:53-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-23T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-23T15:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-23 18:00:53","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-23 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-23 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"KACB 3402","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":""}},"693482":{"#nid":"693482","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Ilsu Kim","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Civil and Environmental Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPh.D. Thesis Defense Announcement\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAdvancing the Practical Integration of Attitudes into Regional Travel Demand Models: Attitudinal Marker Variables, Systematic Model Specification, and Temporal Stability of Attitudes\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBy\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Ilsu Kim\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdvisor:\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDr. Patricia Mokhtarian\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Civil and Environmental Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EGeorgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECommittee Members:\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDr. Michael Hunter\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Civil and Environmental Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EGeorgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Sofia Perez-Guzman\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Civil and Environmental Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Industrial and Systems Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EGeorgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Subhrajit Guhathakurta\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of City and Regional Planning\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EGeorgia Institute of Technology\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDr. Ram Pendyala\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EArizona State University\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDate and Time:\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Monday, November 9, 2026, at 3:00 PM EST\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ELocation: Mason 2119 or \u003Cstrong\u003Eonline via\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/273006166487151?p=m2MW5rIwHiBygecHAl\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EMicrosoft Teams\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EABSTRACT\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EFacing evolving work and commute patterns, shifting lifestyles, and\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003Eemerging travel options such as micromobility and self-driving vehicles, travel\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003Edemand models (TDMs) need, and will continue to need, enhanced predictive\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003Eperformance.

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. Finally, \u003Cstrong\u003EAim 3\u003C\/strong\u003E assessed the transcriptomic changes within the TM induced by early-onset menopause to elucidate potential transcriptional mechanisms driving these functional changes.

Unfortunately, these same properties prevent degradation and render their recycling and upcycling exceptionally difficult. Chemical post-polymerization modification (PPM) can produce materials with specialized properties, enabling their use in high-value industries. Unfortunately, traditional methods have limited substrate scope and can degrade the polymer chains. Gold-catalyzed direct C\u2013H bond activation has recently been demonstrated as a method of modifying the aromatic rings of polymers, enabling the attachment of a wide range of pendants. The goal of this thesis is to determine how PPM changes the bulk and interfacial properties during and after synthesis. Aim 1 tests the bulk, determining the effect of pendant size, degree of functionalization, polarity, and intermolecular interactions on the thermomechanical and morphological properties. Aim 2 examines interfaces, testing the hypothesis that alkyl pendant length governs domain size, and mechanical properties in PET\/polyethylene (PE) blends by controlling migration and anchoring. Aim 3 concludes with synthesis, determining whether catalyst structure and milling conditions allow PET chains to be functionalized with minimal degradation. Combined, these three aims will elucidate how PPM can be used to change the properties of aromatic polymers and their blends.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EPost-Polymerization Modification of Aromatic Polymers and their Blends\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Post-Polymerization Modification of Aromatic Polymers and their Blends"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-23 19:12:43","changed_gmt":"2026-10-23 19:13:39","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-06T12:30:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-06T14:30:59-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-06T14:30:59-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-06 17:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-06 19:30:59","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-06 19:30:59","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Molecular Science and Engineering Room 1224","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":""}},"693450":{"#nid":"693450","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Digital Learning Team Office Hours","body":[{"value":"\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Digital Learning Team is excited to offer virtual and monthly open office hours for drop-in assistance.\u202fGeorgia Tech faculty, staff, and TAs are welcome to drop in to ask questions about Canvas features and functionalities, learn about available digital learning tools integrated with Canvas, and brainstorm creative ways to use Canvas in your class.\u202fPlease grab your coffee, tea, or favorite beverage, and join us for Canvas Office Hours!

expansion of electric mobility, grid-scale energy storage, and portable electronics necessitates next-generation rechargeable batteries that fundamentally transcend the safety risks, critical-mineral supply vulnerabilities, and high manufacturing costs of incumbent technologies. Conventional lithium-ion batteries rely on volatile, flammable organic carbonate electrolytes and cobalt\/nickel-rich cathodes, presenting severe thermal-runaway hazards and geographic supply-chain dependencies. Consequently, developing earth-abundant, low-cost chemistries is essential for scalable energy storage. Among emerging candidate electrolyte platforms, chloroaluminate systems offer distinctive advantages spanning multiple battery chemistries. Enabled by facile coordination chemistry of chloroaluminates, these electrolytes can be tailored into ambient-temperature ionic liquids, deep eutectic analogues, or low-melting-point inorganic matrices.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis dissertation proposal outlines the investigation and application of chloroaluminate electrolytes across lithium and beyond-Li systems in two primary parts:\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cul\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022ece4ee960b865cd79e7585187c06d9abe\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPart 1: Melt-Infiltrated Chloroaluminate Oxychloride Solid Electrolytes for Li and Na Batteries.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EConventional solid electrolytes suffer from poor solid\u2013solid interfacial contact and processing constraints that limit active material mass loading. The first part proposes a novel chloroaluminate-based oxychloride inorganic solid electrolyte for both Li and Na systems. Preliminary findings demonstrate high room-temperature ionic conductivity and a modest thermal transition, allowing the electrolyte to behave as a low-viscosity liquid when heated to achieve complete, conformal melt-infiltration into tortuous composite electrodes, solidifying upon cooling into an intimate solid-state conducting network. The proposed research will evaluate the electrochemical performance, scalability, and interfacial chemo mechanics of this system to combine the manufacturing simplicity of liquid cells with the safety and mechanical stability of solid-state architectures.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e3c9cb6bd42534e1fdc795a476525afe1\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPart 2: Na\u2013Al Hybrid-Ion Batteries.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETo transition toward abundant, low-cost battery platforms, the second part proposes a hybrid Na\u2013Al battery chemistry coupling an aluminum metal anode with a dual-ion intercalating open-framework cathode operating in a ternary chloroaluminate ionic liquid electrolyte. The proposed work will systematically investigate the co-intercalation mechanisms of Na and Al species into the cathode host, assess the structural stability of the cathode during extended cycling, and determine the influence of salt concentration in the ionic liquid on ionic conductivity, transport properties, and overall cell performance.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cul\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022ee413ca7a6a767c6351e243a0a650b0fc\u0022\u003EProf. Gleb Yushin \u2014 School of Materials Science and Engineering (advisor)\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e769c6d6296aaf9b083021b075059a1bb\u0022\u003EProf. Preet Singh \u2014 School of Materials Science and Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e434eef722e932530882df5f63199dd94\u0022\u003EProf. Faisal Alamgir \u2014 School of Materials Science and Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022eb629ae2f91321661f6dd6fe7f24ba8bd\u0022\u003EProf. Matthew McDowell \u2014 School of Materials Science and Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli data-list-item-id=\u0022e11ab0f1c713f6709d9893fdbe317f5a5\u0022\u003EProf. Alexander Alexeev \u2014 School of Mechanical Engineering\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EApplication of Chloroaluminate-Based Electrolytes in Lithium and Beyond-Lithium-Ion Batteries\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":" Application of Chloroaluminate-Based Electrolytes in Lithium and Beyond-Lithium-Ion Batteries"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-23 17:59:11","changed_gmt":"2026-10-23 17:59:52","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-11-06T09:30:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2026-11-06T11:30:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-11-06T11:30:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-11-06 14:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-11-06 16:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-11-06 16:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":" Closed","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":""}},"693441":{"#nid":"693441","#data":{"type":"event","title":"PhD Defense by Abiram Krishnan","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbiram Krishnan\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003E(Advisor: Prof. Faisal Alamgir)\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003Ewill defend a doctoral\u0026nbsp;thesis\u0026nbsp;entitled,\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ERevealing Anion Contributions in Lithium-Ion Batteries using Inner-Shell X-Ray Spectroscopy\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EOn\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFriday, November 6, 2026\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;12 pm -

While previous research has extensively investigated the role of cations in these reactions, the contribution of anions remains relatively unexplored. This is primarily due to the limited tools available to directly study the chemical state of anions. Inner-shell x-ray spectroscopy (ISXS) is well-suited for this purpose due to its element selectivity and ability of X-rays to probe electrode materials during in-situ or operando studies. Among these methods, x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) examines the process of generating electron holes, offering insights into the electronic structure and local atomic arrangements of specific elements. Complementarily, x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) studies the quenching of generated electron holes, providing sensitivity to chemical state, spin state, and ligand environment, making it an essential companion to XAS.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn this thesis, I will investigate the mechanism behind oxygen activity (redox) and their effects on the physical property of layered LiCoO2\u0026nbsp;(LCO), LiNixMnyCozO2 (NMCs, x + y + z = 1), \u0026nbsp;and polyanion-based LiFePO4\u0026nbsp;(LFP) cathode material for LIBs. First, the onset of oxygen reactions in LCO and NMC cathodes is identified using a combination of several ISXS methods, followed by an investigation into the resulting changes in their structure and physical properties. Next, the formation of metastable phase during the charge process of LFP is qualitatively studied using linear combination analysis of iron K-edge XAS. The role of anions, specifically phosphorus and oxygen, in LFP is then investigated during charging using phosphorus K emissions and oxygen K-edge absorption, respectively. Finally, K\u03b2 XES is explored as a probe for monitoring the chemical state of transition metals and their covalency with oxygen during LIB cycling, with its results benchmarked against those obtained using XAS.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ERevealing Anion

This task is significantly complicated by emerging multirotor configurations and challenging operational environments, such as ship airwakes and urban flow fields. Analyzing these multi-source interactional phenomena is hindered by current computational limitations, as high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is prohibitively expensive and low-fidelity methods simplify critical flow physics. This gap motivates the development of advanced mid-fidelity modeling approaches, as delivering computationally efficient, rapid-turnaround solutions is essential to enable large-scale optimization, comprehensive parameter sweeps, and real-time flight simulator integration. This proposed thesis will present the development of a new rotor model based on the actuator line method (ALM) within a mid-fidelity GPU-accelerated Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) CFD framework. The new LBM-ALM approach was shown to correlate well with published experimental data and high-fidelity CFD for an isolated single-rotor in hover. The approach was then validated for ship-rotor dynamic interface simulations against sub-scale experimental data and compared to an existing LBM-actuator disk method (ADM) framework, confirming an increase in interactional aerodynamic fidelity. Finally, both the LBM-ALM and LBM-ADM frameworks were validated with excellent correlation to an experimental multirotor hovering in ground effect. The combined results established that the developed framework provides a robust, scalable platform for accurate and computationally efficient interactional aerodynamic analysis.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EDate and time: 2026-10-29, 10:00\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELocation: Skiles 270\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ECommittee:\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Juergen Rauleder (advisor), School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Marilyn Smith, School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Beckett Zhou, School of Aerospace Engineering\u003Cbr\u003EDr. Alex Moushegian, US Navy - NAWCAD\u003Cbr\u003E,\u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EImproved Rotor Modeling for Complex Aerodynamic Interactions with the Lattice Boltzmann Method\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Improved Rotor Modeling for Complex Aerodynamic Interactions with the Lattice Boltzmann Method"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2026-10-23 12:52:54","changed_gmt":"2026-10-23 12:54:05","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2026-10-29T10:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2026-10-30T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2026-10-30T12:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2026-10-29 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2026-10-30 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2026-10-30 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Skiles 270","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":""}},"693420":{"#nid":"693420","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Food for Fines","body":[{"value":"\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstudentengagement.gatech.edu%2F\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7Cjayne.feldman%40gatech.edu%7C017c6f0768dc4513208d08df1271a4e7%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C1%7C0%7C639249951450691050%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=BdXxc%2Biu2OIgfgaIE1EkQLf0LbIS9eAOE0cc%2FoOuXXQ%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\u0022 rel=\u0022noreferrer noopener\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003ECenter for Student Engagement\u003C\/a\u003E and \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.pts.gatech.edu\/\u0022 rel=\u0022noreferrer noopener\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003EParking \u0026amp; Transportation Services\u003C\/a\u003E invite Georgia Tech students, faculty, and staff to participate in Food for Fines, a campus initiative that allows eligible parking citations to be resolved through donations of canned or boxed food items.
