Urban Air Mobility (UAM) can only be achieved at scale when emerging eVTOL operations are safe despite reduced pilot training requirements. Increased autonomy and access to new data pipelines are viewed as foundations to enable safe UAM operations. Traditional sensor data can be augmented with new cloud resources such as ...
Granular materials are common in everyday life but are historically difficult to model. This has direct real-world ramifications owing to the prominent role granular media play in multiple industries and especially in terrain dynamics. One can attempt to track every grain with discrete particle methods, but realistic systems are often ...
Dr. Ravi Bellamkonda’s research explores the interplay of biomaterials and the nervous system for the development of peripheral nerve regeneration, brain electrode interfacing, and brain tumor therapies.
Current governance theory has not adequately addressed how power asymmetries and inequality affect decision-making processes and the distribution of its outcomes. This talk presents a transdisciplinary effort to bridge diverse power scholarship traditions into an integrated framework for policy analysis. A case study on collaborative environmental governance is analyzed, illustrating ...
Portable Sensors based on Integrated PhotonicsInnovation in technology routinely leads the way for discovery in chemistry and biology. To explore the inherent complexity present in biological systems, existing technologies are being pushed to their limits, and once again, scientists are looking to engineers to create innovative solutions to enable their exploration and discovery.Speaker: Andrea Armani, ...
In 2017, Google became the first company of its size to match 100% of its global annual electricity consumption with purchases of renewable energy. However, despite the company’s large-scale procurement of wind and solar power, Google’s offices and data centers must still plug into regional electric grids that carry a ...

Facebook: The Inside StoryFacebook has changed the world and it’s changed us. In barely fifteen years, the simple campus website grew into the largest social media platform and one of the biggest companies in the world. With a valuation of more than $576 billion and almost 3 billion users, including those on its ...
The Vera Rubin Observatory, on a mountaintop in Chile, will house a survey telescope that will image the night sky faster and deeper than ever before. Its camera, at 3.6 Gigapixels, will be the biggest digital camera ever built. The Rubin Observatory will be able to image the entire visible ...
