Welcome back Pratt Graduate and Professional Students! Pratt Graduate & Professional Student are invited to join us for a New Year + Welcome Back Lunch. Kick off the new year by engaging with the community in a casual setting before classes begin! Bring a beverage and we'll have lunch!
Application deadline for graduate studies beginning fall 2025. Start your Duke journey at cee.duke.edu
Duke Research Summit is a showcase of the groundbreaking research and innovation happening across the institution. This full day event will bring together thought leaders, researchers, and innovators to explore transformative solutions for today's most pressing challenges; including, climate, social determinants of health, and other topics impacting local and global communities. The summit will include […]
Dr. Joel Collier, Associate Dean of Doctoral Studies, will host a new student orientation session for all incoming PhD students.
The Cremins Laboratory works at the spatial biology-technology interface to investigate the structure-function relationship of connections across the scales of chromatin, synapses, and circuits in the developing and diseased mammalian brain. Neurons exhibit elaborate structures at multiple scales, including diverse long-range axonal projections to form circuits, a range of complex dendritic spine geometries at the […]
Pratt graduate and professional students are invited to connect, share, and grow their network by joining the Pratt Peers for lunch! Attendance is limited, request a space through the interest form.
Genetic background drives phenotypic variability in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and influences their differentiation capacity to various cell types. Specifically, mESCs from different genetic backgrounds cultured under identical conditions show variable responses to external signals. We utilize a systems genetics approach to dissect the molecular basis of this divergent response to extracellular cues using […]
This seminar summarizes human-computer interfaces for quality inspection aided by robotics applications, enhancing human decision-making with Artificial-Intelligence (AI) and machine-enabled visual analysis. Accordingly, interfaces of image-based automatic defect-detection and visual inspectors are explored focusing on Augmented Reality (AR) systems. A standalone human interface for automatic defect detection and localization is developed by integrating an image-based […]
Join the rest of the Pratt School of Engineering Community in a special dedication of a special new place on our campus -- the Thomas E. Harrington E'66 GREAT IDEAS BENCH. The dedication will take place at the BENCH, located where Hudson Hall meets Harrington Engineering Quad.
ABSTRACT: Electrochemical processes are vital for global decarbonization efforts because they are central to many energy-efficient storage and conversion technologies and can also be leveraged for large scale chemical manufacturing. In the context of these energy applications, it is necessary to understand factors that control the kinetics and selectivity of electrochemical reactions. At the electrode […]
Seminar Abstract: In healthcare, the emergence of digital twin technology marks a transformative step towards proactive medical care. Digital twins, which are detailed virtual models of individual human physiological systems, are reshaping how medical professionals predict, diagnose, and treat various health conditions. This talk will focus on the specific application of these models in creating […]

Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday. No classes are held
The Colorado River Basin (CRB) is a vitally important resource for Western US water supply, agriculture, and hydropower. The 1922 Colorado River Compact promoted growth by allocating a fixed amount of water to Upper and Lower Basin states, not foreseeing potential conflicts over inadequate supply. Lakes Powell and Mead have the capacity to store up […]
Come, create, and converse with friends at our first Snack Chat of the spring semester! We will have blondies to snack on in observance of "National Blondie Day" and will be painting flower pots to take home with you in anticipation of spring. Join us and connect with new friends as well as old ones!
