From Complete Genomes to Pangenomes: Expanding Our Understanding of Human Haplotype Variation

Bryan Research 103

The initial Human Genome Project was a landmark achievement, serving as an essential resource for basic and clinical science, as well as for understanding human history, for over two decades. However, it is in need of an upgrade due to missing data, inaccurately assembled regions, and its inability to fully represent and identify sequence variants […]

From Gambits to Assurances: Game-Theoretic Integration of Safety and Learning for Human-Centered Robotics

Wilkinson Building, room 130

From autonomous vehicles navigating busy intersections to quadrupeds deployed in household environments, robots must operate safely and efficiently around people in uncertain and unstructured situations. However, today's robots still struggle to robustly handle low-probability events without becoming overly conservative. In this talk, I will discuss how planning in the joint space of physical and information […]

DMI/MEMS Seminar Presented by Prof Mariana Rossi

Fitzpatrick Center Schiciano Auditorium Side B, room 1466

TITLE: The quantum properties of molecular interfaces Abstract: Weakly bonded interfaces composed by molecular and solid-state inorganic materials give rise to a rich variety of nuclear motion and tunable nuclear structure that is tightly connected to diverse electronic properties in these systems. In my talk, I will discuss how we push the limits of density-functional […]
