Seminar - “Colloidal Particles at the Interfaces: From Fundamentals to Functional Materials” by Dr. To Ngai, Department of Chemistry, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shatin, N.T. Hong Kong

ABSTRACT:  The phenomenon of adsorption of colloidal particles at interfaces to stabilize the emulsions has been known for more than a century. Today, particle-stabilized emulsions, or so-called Pickering emulsions are receiving growing attention in the scientific and industrial communities. However, our fundamental understanding of the connection between particle properties and emulsion characteristics is still surprisingly poor.

Seminar - “Mechanics and Manufacture of Bio-Integrated Electronics” by Dr. Nanshu Lu, Ph.D., University of Texas at Austin

ABSTRACT:  Bio-integrated electronics has demonstrated exciting applications in wearable health monitors, surgical tools, as well as human-machine interfaces. Strategies for bio-integrated electronics must overcome challenges associated with the mismatch between the hard, planar surfaces of brittle semiconductor wafers and the soft, curvilinear tissues of dynamic biological systems.
