  • New Year, New Goals Resolution Sticky Notes Pop-Up

    Start the semester with clear goals! Join the Pratt Peers Advisory Board for a drop-in New Year's Resolution Sticky Notes Pop-Up. Reflect on your goals, pick up sticky notes, and enjoy pastries and coffee while supplies last. All Pratt graduate students are welcome-swing by anytime between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM in Teer 102 Student […]

  • A Dynamical Paradigm for Molecular Cell Biology

    A fundamental challenge in cell biology is to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying basic functions of a living cell, such as transforming incoming signals to appropriate responses or controlling the rates of DNA replication and cell division. The underlying biochemical and genetic mechanisms of a cell are dynamical systems that evolve in time and space […]

  • Mobile Genomic Architects in Development and Cancer: Transposons and ecDNA

    Nanaline Duke 147

    Beneath an illusion of stability, our genomes are in a state of constant revision, orchestrated by mobile elements that rewrite the code of life. Our lab seeks to decipher this genomic symphony by studying the key conductors-transposons and extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA)-and their powerful roles in shaping organisms and driving cancer.

  • DMI/MEMS Seminar Presented by Asst. Prof. Thomas A.R. Purcell, Ph.D.

    Fitzpatrick Center Schiciano Auditorium Side A, room 1464

    Title: Automating Computational Materials Design with Explainable AI Abstract: High-throughput density functional theory (DFT) calculations have the capability to quickly screen thousands of materials to identify the top candidates for myriad of energy and sustainability applications. However, despite its impressive efficiency relative to experiments, computational screening is still incapable of exploring the entirety of materials […]

  • Advances in dynamic and responsive materials for intestinal organoid culture

    Wilkinson Building, room 021 auditorium

    Methods for culturing intestinal organoids (IOs) in biologically relevant, but defined matrices are increasingly needed to expand and differentiate intestinal stem cells (ISCs), study organoid development and physiology, and to grow tissues that can be transplanted in humans While Matrigel has been the paradigm for IO culture, evidence and intuition suggest that batch-to-batch variability and […]
