We are a diverse set of engineers and scientists solving health problems by using and developing systems biology tools and technologies to describe and control spatial relationships between cells in tissues. While our primary goals of cellular organization are broad, as are our collaborations, we are particularly interested in applications involving cell-based therapies.
Achieving carbon circularity and net zero emissions requires a comprehensive understanding of emissions and re-valorization of waste carbon, while keeping fossil carbon underground. Environmental engineers are uniquely positioned to lead sustainable carbon management as the "circular carbon engineers". For example, modern wastewater treatment is evolving from "removal-centered" to a "recovery-oriented" approach, and the increasing availability […]

One of the standard arguments for building a quantum computer is that we might profitably use the entanglements between qubits to simulate the correlations between electrons and thus solve a myriad of important chemical and material design problems. While this is surely an elegant and effective one-line funding justification, the devil is very much in […]

Abstract: Hamiltonian simulation becomes more challenging as the underlying unitary becomes more oscillatory. In such cases, an algorithm with commutator scaling and a weak dependence, such as logarithmic, on the derivatives of the Hamiltonian is desired. We introduce a new time-dependent Hamiltonian simulation algorithm based on the Magnus series expansion that exhibits both features. Importantly, […]

In this talk, we present a multiscale adaptive data-driven framework to simulate the behavior of complex systems. Such complex systems typically display non-linear, non-local, micro-morphic features that have challenged continuum and discrete models for over a century. We use granular materials as canonical examples of complex systems to contextualize our proposed data-driven framework, highlighting its […]

Recording large-scale brain activity patterns at cellular resolution in freely-behaving mice using current recording approaches presents several challenges. First, linear microscopy methods lack the depth penetration and optical sectioning required for deep-tissue recording, while multiphoton microscopy allows for recording neuronal activity only from a single plane or few axially-shifted planes. In addition, cellular-resolution recording requires […]

Abstract Recent advances in heterogeneous integration and advanced packaging technology have enabled the combination of multiple functionalities into a single system. Among various, remote epitaxy techniques, which we have pioneered since 2017, has shown great potential for producing single-crystalline compound materials, such as III-V, III-N, and complex oxides on 2D materials. The slippery surface of […]
Molecules have emerged as powerful instruments for conducting precise tests of fundamental symmetries, such as the search for the electron electric dipole moment (eEDM). However, molecules are generally difficult to trap and cool, making it challenging to perform narrow linewidth measurements with long interrogation times without a complicated laser-cooling setup capable of repumping multiple rovibrational […]

Electronic health records (EHRs) have immense potential to transform medicine both at the point-of-care and through retrospective research. However, current EHRs are burdensome to use, resulting in documentation which is suboptimal for patients, clinicians, and researchers alike. Clinical notes are written in their own jargon-heavy dialect, patient histories can contain hundreds of notes, and there […]

Electromagnetic metamaterials obtain their properties from geometry rather than chemistry, and have demonstrated novel scattering not realizable with conventional materials. However, as metamaterials and metasurfaces have become more complex, the structure-property relationship is increasingly less understood or sometimes completely unknown. For complex metamaterials the only means to determine metamaterial properties is through computational electromagnetic simulations, […]

ARDS, pneumonia, and sepsis are common critical illnesses with high mortality. The conditions are overlapping, and diagnosis, prognosis and prediction are all challenging. Decades of research has been done to try and unravel the heterogeneity and find treatments to improve outcomes for these patients, yet to little effect. Progress is hampered in part by the […]
Abstract: Programmable arrays of single atoms interfaced with optical cavities are a promising platform for quantum computing and quantum networking. Optical cavities enable fast and non-destructive readout of individual atomic qubits; however, scaling up to many qubits remains a challenge. We recently addressed this by employing locally controlled excited-state Stark shifts to achieve site-selective hyperfine-state […]

While there have been huge advances in Machine Learning in recent years, many of the successes have relied on immense amounts of training data. Especially for sequential-decision-making tasks (the realm of reinforcement learning), obtaining such data from online experience can take a very long time. On the other hand, learning can often be dramatically accelerated […]
Low-income and dispersed communities are disproportionally burdened by water pollution due to factors such as residential proximity to point sources of contamination and inadequate access to clean water and sanitation infrastructure.
