Bacteria forming close associations with eukaryotic hosts, called microbiota, exert great influences on the biology and physiology of their hosts and could dictate host ecological success. My lab investigates the binary and synergistic interactions of members of these microbiota on the physiology and ecology of the marine diatom Pseudo-nitzschia, with ...
Clinically viable and minimally invasive neural interfaces stand to revolutionize disease care for patients of neurological conditions. For example, recent research in Brain Machine Interfaces (BMIs) has shown success in using electronic signals from the motor cortex of the brain to control artificial limbs, providing hope for patients with spinal ...
Molten fluoride salts have greatly different chemical and thermophysical properties than other reactor coolants. They are chemically stable, have very high boiling temperatures (and thus are intrinsically low-pressure), have high volumetric heat capacity, and are optically transparent. This talk will provide an overview of the current status of molten salt ...
While once considered a research dead-end, artificial neural networks are making a huge resurgence. Over the past decade, neural network researchers have leveraged a combination of novel research and hardware advances to drastically advance the state of the art in neural networking. This new area, called Deep Learning, has shown ...
