SUMMARY:Intro to Quantum Seminar for the Northeastern Community
DESCRIPTION:Spring 2026\, West Village H Room 366\, Fridays 10-11am\, Weekly \nGregory A. Fiete\, Professor of Physics\, College of Science\, Northeastern University \nPurpose and Synopsis: Curious about quantum physics but not a physicist or physics major? This seminar series is your chance to learn the fundamentals of quantum physics\, quantum computing\, quantum sensing\, quantum cryptography\, and quantum communication in an informal atmosphere without the need to register for a class. The seminar\, open to all in the Northeastern community\, will begin from basics assuming no prior knowledge of quantum mechanics and build through key concepts relevant to quantum technologies. The first weeks of the seminar will feature tutorial lectures and then the seminar will host experts from across campus who will give accessible talks on their quantum research. The aim is to bring together the entire Northeastern community in a single setting for establishing multi-disciplinary ties across the university for all who have an interest in quantum. Students\, postdocs\, staff and faculty at all levels are welcome. Questions and interactive discussions during the seminar are encouraged. \nTopics Covered: Entanglement\, Measurement Disturbance of Quantum Systems\, Logic Gates\, Quantum Advantage\, No Cloning Theorem\, Quantum Teleportation\, EPR Paradox\, Spin\, Hilbert Spaces\, Basic Mathematical Structure of Quantum Mechanics\, Heisenberg Uncertainty Relations. \nSpeaker/Instructor Bio: Greg is a theoretical physicist specializing in the study of exotic quantum properties of materials. He received his PhD in physics from Harvard University and did postdoctoral work at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics at UC Santa Barbara. He was a Lee A. DuBridge Prize Fellow in Theoretical Physics at Caltech. He is a recipient of the NSF CAREER Award\, the DARPA Young Faculty Award\, a DARPA Director’s Fellowship\, the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE)\, a Simons Fellowship in Theoretical Physics\, and a Bessel Research Award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. He is an elected Fellow of the American Physical Society. Greg is a core and founding member of the Quantum Materials and Sensing Institute (QMSI) at Northeastern University. \nSchedule of seminars

SUMMARY:Chemical Engineering Spring Seminar Series: Wilson Wong
DESCRIPTION:Engineering Vaccines\, Cell and Gene Therapies Using Synthetic Biology  \nLocation: 300 Richards Hall \nAbstract: In this seminar\, I will share with you some of the work that my trainees and colleagues have done on using synthetic biology in various areas\, such as foundational circuit engineering\, cellular immunotherapy\, and vaccines. I will discuss our work on improving the specificity and safety of CART cell therapy against cancer using synthetic biology and biomaterials. I will also share our recent discovery on engineering self-amplifying RNA with reduced innate immune response and improved protein expression\, leading to a highly potent COVID-19 vaccine as demonstrated in a lethal live virus challenge in mice. \n\nDr. Wilson Wong is a Professor of Biomedical Engineering and an Allen Distinguished Investigator at Boston University. He is an expert in immune cell engineering and synthetic biology for therapeutic applications. Dr. Wong’s research has been published in numerous high-impact journals\, including Nature\, Nature Biotechnology\, Cell\, and PNAS. Dr. Wong has been recognized with multiple academic career awards\, including membership in the AIMBE\, NIH New Innovator Award\, the ACS Synthetic Biology Young Investigator Award\, the NSF CAREER Award\, and the Allen Distinguished Investigator Award. He has co-founded three companies\, with one in the clinical stage. Dr. Wong has a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley\, and a PhD in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from the University of California\, Los Angeles. Dr. Wong completed his postdoctoral studies in the laboratory of Professor Wendell Lim at the University of California\, San Francisco.
