PhD Plus Career Conversation: Gilead

Westbrook 0016

A small group discussion with panelist, Monica Motwani of Gilead who will dive into the creative ways to carve out and navigate a career path in industry. How to "job-hop" strategically, thoughtfully and without burning bridges.

The Crucial Motion Intelligence for Future Robots

Wilkinson Building, room 130

We have remarkable AIs and precise robots, but why do humans still do so much tedious physical work, from factories to households? The core missing piece is dexterity - the ability to manipulate objects skillfully. Human-level dexterity is the complex synergy of mind and body, from the lowest level of sensorimotor control to the highest […]

CEE Seminar Self-similarity and vanishing diffusion in fluvial landscapes: theoretical and numerical challenges

Fitzpatrick Center Schiciano Auditorium Side A, room 1464

With intricate ridge and valley networks, natural landscapes shaped by fluvial erosion often exhibit universal scaling laws and self-similar behavior. These properties are also displayed by the solutions of landscape evolution modes (LEMs), when fluvial erosion dominates over the smoothing tendency of diffusion (i.e., soil creep). Under such conditions, an invariant self-similar regime is reached […]

Dynamic codes and quantum computation

Virtual

I will review the concept of Floquet quantum error-correcting codes, and more generally, dynamic codes. These codes are defined through sequences of low-weight measurements that "evolve" the instantaneous code in time. I will explain how varying the measurement pattern can lead to the implementation of logical gates. Thus, in dynamic codes, the low-weight measurements varying […]
