Are you a Duke student working on a startup, building a technology, or exploring an idea you want to keep moving forward? The Christensen Center is hosting Founders Fridays, a monthly, open mentoring session for student founders during the Spring 2026 semester. Founders Fridays is an informal "Ask Us Anything" space where you can get […]
Our research combines high-resolution computational reconstructions of the host-microbiome interactome with microbial engineering to devise innovative approaches to create new therapeutic interventions and investigate the underlying ecology of skin microbial communities.
We have witnessed an explosion in the capabilities of foundation models and artificial intelligence to reason and generate content in the digital domain. Despite these advancements, there still exists a fundamental disconnect between their intelligence and our everyday physical environments. To bridge this gap and create truly ubiquitous intelligent environments that are capable of supporting […]
A collaborative Duke University and Duke Kunshan University workshop. Duke Kunshan University's International Master of Environmental Policy (iMEP) faculty will host a one-day workshop featuring a dynamic panel discussion on critical themes such as climate governance, biodiversity conservation, and new energy innovation. In addition, the workshop will feature two parallel sessions for academic paper presentations, […]

The Triangle Soft Matter Workshop has for the past 17-years brought together researchers, graduate students, and postdoctoral scholars from across the Research Triangle to share advances in soft materials research. The event promotes interdisciplinary communication and collaboration among scientists working in polymers, biomaterials, colloids, biological systems, and condensed matter physics. Registration required by May 4, […]
In this seminar, participants will learn about the structure and organization of medical record data, and use the Duke FCAP system to query data and gain hands-on experience with the platform. The Duke Federated Clinical Analytics Platform (FCAP) is a secure and protected environment allowing access to de-identified medical record data. The seminar will be […]
Girl Scouts STEM Day @ Duke is an event offered through a partnership between Triangle Women in STEM, the Pratt School of Engineering, and the Coastal Pines Girl Scouts. The event offers to students a fun-filled day of hand-on STEM workshops and emphasizes STEM careers for middle and high school students with a parallel program […]
ABSTRACT: Photonic quantum sensing is attracting significant attention because it enables capabilities that surpass the fundamental limits of classical optical sensing by leveraging non-classical states of light, such as entangled photon pairs, which cannot be fully described by Maxwell's equations. In this talk, we focus on quantum infrared spectroscopy (QIRS) based on strongly frequency‑nondegenerate entangled […]
