  • Wearable and Implantable Systems for Seamless High-Fidelity Diagnostics and Therapeutics

    Abstract: Advances in materials and fabrication concepts for soft electronics coupled with miniaturization of wireless energy transfer enables the creation of high-performance electronic and optoelectronic systems with footprint and physical properties matched to biology. This talk explores the creation of such systems and discusses applications in the context of imperceptible body-worn devices for the assessment […]

  • Towards Personalizing Assistive Technology in the Real World

    Teer 106

    Abstract: Assistive technology offers promise to improve personal mobility for hundreds of millions of people. However, determining how to assist people to accommodate their unique needs across everyday mobility scenarios is an open challenge. Personalizing assistance to each user has helped meet these needs and systematically improve mobility outcomes in laboratory settings. To address these […]

  • How Indigenous Peoples’ Actions to Address Climate Change Scale Up

    Nasher Museum of Art Auditorium

    Dr. Kyle Whyte is a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. His environmental justice research focuses on the moral and political issues that Indigenous peoples are addressing with regard to climate change, conservation and cooperative relationships with science institutions. "How Indigenous Peoples' Actions to Address Climate Change Scale Up" is the first of three public […]

  • DQC Seminar Series: Neutral-Atom Quantum Processors: From Scalable Quantum Computing to Quantum Networks

    Abstract: Neutral-atom arrays have emerged as a promising platform for scalable quantum information processing, combining long-lived qubits, programmable Rydberg interactions, and natural interconnection with photonic qubits. In this talk, I will discuss our efforts to develop new architectures that address key challenges in scaling neutral-atom processors toward fault-tolerant quantum computation and distributed quantum networks. I […]

  • Pratt PhD Program Re-Orientation

    Westbrook 0012

    Pratt PhD Program will host a new student orientation "refresher" session to the incoming PhD student cohort. Dr. Hsu-Kim will review pertinent available Pratt and Duke resources and organizational contacts and take questions from the students that have arisen over the first half of the semester. Lunch will be provided.

  • Distinguished Seminar Series with Dr. James Duncan

    Wilkinson 021

    Neuroimage Analysis in Autism: from Model-Based Estimation to Data-driven Learning Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been shown to be helpful for the study of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). This talk will describe the evolution of efforts in this area within our group that carry promise for producing objective biomarkers for ASD, as well as […]

  • CarbonSim: Play the Carbon Market

    Sanford 05

    All Duke students are invited to join us for an interactive Emissions Trading System (ETS) simulation led by Duke alumnus Josh Margolis (T'81) using CarbonSim, the Environmental Defense Fund's carbon market simulation tool. This event will help students learn about the intricacies of carbon markets and gain valuable ETS experience in a risk-free, entertaining, and […]
