ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Spatial Compositions for Agile Quadrupedal Locomotion”
July 20, 2026
Zoom Link: https://upenn.zoom.us/j/98563756560?pwd=yXnuhaTv2V2jSOHzgiz1DujOa2Ubdw.1 Robots still have a lot to learn from animals when it comes to agile locomotion. Abstracting low-DOF dynamical models from animal locomotion and using them as control […]

July 21, 2026
Mechanical metamaterials achieve extraordinary physical properties through their internal geometric architectures. While traditional metamaterials are limited by fixed designs, multistable reprogrammable metamaterials can modify these properties post-fabrication and morph into […]

ASSET Seminar: “Inherent Interpretability via Language Model Guided Bottleneck Design” (Mark Yatskar, Penn)
ABSTRACT: As deep learning systems improve, their applicability to critical domains is hampered because of a lack of transparency. Post-hoc explanations attempt to address this concern but they provide no […]
CBE Doctoral Dissertation: “A Multiscale Computational Framework for Simulating Thrombus Growth Under Flow” (Kaushik Shankar)
Abstract: Modeling thrombus growth in pathological flows allows evaluation of risk under patient-specific pharmacological, hematological, and hemodynamical conditions. To this end, we have developed a 3D multiscale framework for the […]
Fall 2023 GRASP SFI: Xiaolong Wang, University of California San Diego, “Generalizable Geometric Robot Learning”
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Levine 307 and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT Robot learning has witnessed significant progress in terms of generalization recently, with the help […]
CBE Seminar: “Revolutionizing Bioimaging to Elevate Human Health”
Holistic imaging of diverse functional, anatomical, and molecular architecture that span multiple levels, from cells to an entire system, remains a major challenge in biology. In this talk, I will […]
