ChE Seminar Series: Materials Innovation in Nanotechnologies

September 22, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Paulette Clancy, Ph.D Head of the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Johns Hopkins University Materials Innovation in Nanotechnologies Abstract There are many problems at the forefront of materials chemistry whose solution is stymied by its inherent complexity. Such problems are characterized by a rich landscape of parameters and processing variables that is combinatorially too large for either an experimental or a computational approach to solve through an exhaustive search. In such cases, the…

ChE Seminar Series: Chemo-mechanics and solid-state batteries

October 13, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Kelsey Hatzell, Ph.D Assistant Professor in the Andlinger Center for Energy and Environment Assistant Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Princeton University Chemo-mechanic and solid-state batteries Abstract: Transportation accounts for 23% of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions and electrification is a pathway toward ameliorating these growing challenges.  All solid-state batteries could potentially address the safety and driving range requirements necessary for widespread adoption of electric vehicles. However, the power densities of all-solid-state batteries are limited because…

ChE Seminar Series: Engineering directed Transport and Collective Dynamics of Charged Colloids under Electric Fields

October 27, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Carlos A. Silvera Batista Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Vanderbilt University Engineering directed Transport and Collective Dynamics of Charged Colloids under Electric Fields Abstract: Gradients in electrical potential (electric fields), along with gradients in concentration of ionic species, are a principal way to control the motion of colloids. The surface and body forces that electric fields exert on anisotropic colloids have opened new applications in self-propulsion, transport of cargo, dynamic assembly, and directed assembly.…

ChE Seminar Series: Detection, Prediction, and Visualization of Monolayer Phase Separation on Metallic Nanoparticles

November 3, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. David L. Green Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering Departments University of Virginia Abstract: The goal is to gain fundamental insights into the factors that dictate the synthesis of monolayer-protected nanoparticles and translate them into rational design strategies for novel functional soft materials. He is interested in monolayer self-assembly, polymer grafting, and nanoparticle dispersion. He studies how to exert control over the interface of nanoparticles, which dictates their degree of compatibility with and assembly…

ChE Seminar Series: Designing Optically Active Semiconductor Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications

November 12, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Allison Dennis Assistant Professor, Biomedical Engineering and Materials Science and Engineering Boston University Abstract: Although the unique optoelectronic properties of semiconductor nanoparticle quantum dots (QDs) enable a variety of commercial products including display technology, solid state lighting, and photovoltaics, different design criteria need to be considered to use these nanoparticles in biomedical devices. Here, I will discuss how we tailor the composition and optical properties of QDs for a variety of biosensing and bioimaging applications.…

ChE Seminar Series: Game-Inspired Approaches to Engineering Education Across the Curriculum

November 17, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Daniel Burkey Associate Dean of Undergraduate Education and Diversity, Professor-in-Residence in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, and a University Teaching Fellow at University of Connecticut Abstract: Game-based educational techniques can be an interesting and novel approach to active learning in engineering courses. Because games often exist within their own rule sets, they can allow students to explore scenarios and make choices that they wouldn’t otherwise make because they are appropriate within the context and the rules…

ChE Seminar Series: Unwinding Anxiety: An App Based Mindfulness Program

November 19, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Nancy Lasson, DO, FACP, DipACLM Primary care provider and medical director of the primary care group at the Women’s Medicine Collaborative of LifeSpan Physician Group in Providence, Rhode Island Abstract: Anxiety can be managed by understanding reward-based learning and using mindfulness to interrupt unwanted behavior. Habits form to promote survival. The underlying mechanism is based on reward-based learning. There are areas of the brain where habits run on autopilot. The neo-cortex, or new brain, is…

ChE Seminar Series: Orchestrating Cellular Regeneration at Organ Scale

December 1, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Yvon Woappi, Ph.D. K99/R00 MOSAIC Fellow at Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women's Hospital Abstract Large scale tissue damage, such as organ failure and burn injury, is a leading cause of morbidity and death. However, the mechanisms underlying full regeneration of organs remain poorly understood. As the largest organ system in the body, the integumentary system is a composite tissue evolutionarily adapted for healing. Consequently, its complex physiology requires multifaceted cooperation between several distinct cell populations…

Science on Tap: How To Think About Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration

September 30, 2022 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

COE PhD Council presents SCIENCE ON TAP How To Think About Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration with Dean Gregory Abowd NU’s Academic Plan pushes us to consider impact in the world, and that requires more than a discipline-specific mindset. Having positive impact on problems of our world requires collaboration across multiple communities with different languages, methods, and incentives. Reflecting on my own successes and failures, I want to share a commonsense way to think about how to create effective cross-disciplinary relationships. Gregory D.…
