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: Andrew D. Jones
DESCRIPTION:Come to my window: Porosity and binding distribution provide better predictors for biofilm penetration \nLocation: 108 Snell Engineering Center \nAbstract: The Jones Systems for Engaging the Environment Lab builds novel tools to study biofilm dynamics. In this presentation we will discuss two such tools: a mechanical tool and a mathematical tool describing Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 interaction with antibiotics. Biofilms are the common mode of life for bacteria in infections and in the environment. Biofilm infections have been shown to be more recalcitrant to antibiotic treatment than planktonic bacteria. This recalcitrance has been partially attributed to periphery sequestration\, where antibiotics fail to penetrate biofilm cell clusters. Biofilms have also been identified as the primary environmental sink of engineered nanomaterials. However\, there have been results attributing charge as the main predictor of biofilm uptake of these nano-sized materials. We developed a model for antibiotic accumulation in bacterial biofilm microcolonies using heterogenous porosity and attachment site profiles replicating the periphery sequestration reported in prior experimental studies on Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilm cell clusters. We account for periphery sequestration using two physical phenomena: biofilm matrix attachment and volume-exclusion due to variable biofilm porosity. The antibiotic accumulation model which incorporated both phenomena better fit observed periphery sequestration data compared to previous models that leveraged charge. We propose a novel tool for being able to conduct medium throughput screens with microscopy measurements on these biofilms and validate it against existing standards. We show quantifiable effects of antibiotics on biofilm streamers and propose that this may be useful for quantifying the attachment site density and porosity. \n\n \nAkhenaton-Andrew (Andrew) D. Jones\, III is an Assistant Professor of Environmental Engineering and affiliate faculty in the Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science Department\, Duke Materials Initiative\, and Integrated Toxicology & Environmental Health Program at Duke University. His research uses engineering and policy analysis to help solve global challenges related to water and health. He is a 2021 recipient of the NIH R35 Maximizing Investigator’s Research Award to develop new models and tools for studying biofilms and a 2019 Sloan SEED fund award to develop new tools for point of use water quality monitoring systems. He was recognized as Young Investigator by the Center for Biofilm Engineering at Montana State\, the premier center for biofilm research in the US. He received a BS in Mathematics and BS\, MS\, and PhD in Mechanical Engineering from MIT where he was a Lemelson Presidential Fellow and Alfred P. Sloan UCEM Scholar. He completed post-doctoral training as a Future Faculty Fellow at Northeastern University. He has directly supervised 2 high school students\, over 20 undergraduates\, 5 MS\, 6 PhD\, and 2 post-doctoral trainees including 12 from underrepresented backgrounds and 24 women. He and his team have presented at over 50 conferences and seminars. He is the 2023 Recipient of the Duke Outstanding Postdoctoral Mentor Award.
