SUMMARY:Ignorance Is Bliss: A Career Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:  \nDean Gregory D. Abowd will present his SIGCHI Lifetime Research Award Acceptance Lecture \nDate: Tues.\, June 13\, 2023 \nTime: 5:30 to 7:15 PM\, reception following Dean Abowd’s talk \nPlace: In-Person and Livestream\nBostonCHI meeting at Northeastern University in ISEC Auditorium (102 ISEC)\, and reception in ISEC Atrium \nRegistration is appreciated but not required. View BostonCHI for more information. \nPresentation Abstract: In 1988\, as a graduate student grappling to find a research identity\, Gregory D. Abowd accidentally discovered the field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Over the past 35 years\, he pursued a passion for applying the tools and techniques of computing to uncover how the human experience with technology can be understood and transformed. That leap into HCI was just the first of a number of leaps of faith. Abowd’s career has been a series of shifting research agendas\, each one inspired by some life events. In all cases\, he was buoyed by a bevy of talented and supportive colleagues\, advisors and advisees alike\, who gave him the courage to jump into a research topic that he didn’t know much about. That “ignorance” has allowed him to be more fearless than he had the right to be. In this talk\, Abowd will reflect on his professional journey\, hoping to inspire others to dispel fear of the unknown and unlock their potential. Life\, like research\, is best when shared with others whom you can respect and befriend. \n—————————————— \nGregory D. Abowd\, dean of the College of Engineering and professor of electrical and computer engineering at Northeastern University\, has received the Lifetime Research Award from the Association for Computing Machinery’s (ACM) Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI). The award is presented to individuals for “the best\, most fundamental\, and influential research contributions to the study of human-computer interaction (HCI)” and is awarded for a lifetime of innovation and leadership. \n

SUMMARY:BioE Seminar Series Presents: Ryan Flynn
DESCRIPTION:Department of Bioengineering Seminar Series presents  \nRyan Flynn\, Ph.D  \nAssistant Professor\, Boston Children’s Hospital’s Stem Cell Program and Harvard University’s Stem Cell and  Regenerative Biology Department\, Boston MA \n“GlycoRNAs: bridging the gap between glycobiology and RNA biology”  \n Wednesday\, November 16th\, 2022\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EST\n105 Shillman Hall  \nABSTRACT:    \nGlycans modify lipids and proteins to mediate inter- and intramolecular interactions across all domains of life. RNA is not thought to be a major target of glycosylation. Here\, we challenge this view with evidence that mammals use RNA as a third scaffold for glycosylation. Using chemical and biochemical approaches\, we found that conserved small noncoding RNAs bear sialylated glycans. These ‘‘glycoRNAs’’ were present in multiple cell types and mammalian species\, in cultured cells\, and in vivo. GlycoRNA assembly depends on canonical N-glycan biosynthetic machinery and results in structures enriched in sialic acid and fucose. Analysis of living cells revealed that the majority of glycoRNAs were present on the cell surface and can interact with anti-dsRNA antibodies and members of the Siglec receptor family. New insights into the molecular nature of glycoRNAs will be presented\, which help to solidify the existence of a direct interface between RNA biology and glycobiology\, and an expanded role for RNA in extracellular biology. \nBIO:   \nRyan is a New Jersey native who completed his undergraduate training at MIT\, where he worked in the lab of Phillip Sharp on small noncoding RNA biology. Subsequently\, he moved to Stanford where he completed his M.D. and Ph.D. with Howard Chang developing methods to study RNA-protein interactions. From this work\, he won the Weintraub Graduate Student Award. As a post-doc\, he changed fields to learn both chemistry and glycobiology with Carolyn Bertozzi at Stanford as a Damon Runyon Cancer Research Postdoctoral Fellow. At the beginning of 2021\, the Flynn Lab opened at Boston Children’s Hospital in the Stem Cell Program and the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology at Harvard University. The Flynn Lab is currently focused on advancing methods and mechanisms surrounding the glycoRNA molecule\, which operates at the interface of RNA biology and the secretory pathway.

SUMMARY:BioE Seminar Series Presents Erica Pratt
DESCRIPTION:Department of Bioengineering Seminar Series presents: \nErica Pratt\, Ph.D  \nAssistant Professor\, Department of Biomedical Engineering\, Boston University\, Boston MA \n“Liquid biopsy approaches in pancreatic cancer”  \nWednesday\, October 26th\, 2022\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EST\n105 Shillman Hall  \nABSTRACT:    \nOnly 25% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) patients with localized disease survive five years after a ‘curative’ resection. It is hypothesized that PDA undergoes dissemination at the earliest stages of tumorigenesis\, driving the formation of micrometastases that go undetected using conventional screening methods. The development of high-specificity\, high-sensitivity biomarkers is critical to improving patient outcomes. Growing evidence suggests circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is an ideal candidate to fill this gap. ctDNA has been successfully used as a noninvasive prognostic biomarker in multiple solid tumor types. However\, pancreatic cancer remains intractable due to its intrinsically low molecular signal and fast timeline to progression. To address this need\, we have developed a digital PCR (dPCR)-based platform for rapid\, flexible\, and multiplexed ctDNA detection. Our approach for sensitive detection of low abundance ctDNA is a promising tool for modular and scalable mutation profiling.  \nBIO:   \nErica D. Pratt is an assistant professor of Biomedical Engineering at Boston University. Her lab works at the interface of engineering\, chemical biology and oncology to develop assays for cancer diagnosis and monitoring. She earned her B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University. Erica went on to earn her Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering at Cornell University working with Brian J. Kirby. There she co-designed the Geometrically Enhanced Differential Immunocapture (GEDI) platform for high-efficiency and high-purity microfluidic isolation of circulating tumor cells from whole blood samples. Erica then completed multi-disciplinary postdocs with Andrew D. Rhim and Laurie L. Parker developing assays for non-invasive omic characterization of solid cancers.

SUMMARY:BioE Seminar Series Presents: John Kasianowicz
DESCRIPTION:Department of Bioengineering Seminar Series  \nJohn Kasianowicz\, Ph.D  \n“Sequencing DNA\, Sizing Polymers\, Identifying Proteins (& More) with Nanometer-Scale Pores”  \nWednesday\, October 19th\, 2022\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EST\n105 Shillman Hall \nABSTRACT: \nBiological nanometer-scale protein pores are the basis of nerve and muscle activity.  With the goal of providing low-cost measurements for health care applications\, we have been adapting several types of nanopores for the detection\, characterization\, and identification of molecules.  For example\, when a single molecule enters a pore\, its physical and chemical properties control both the degree by which it reduces the ionic current that otherwise flows freely and its dwell time there.  Thus far\, our work led to two novel DNA sequencing methods (and a critical assessment of a third technique)1-5\, the ability to discriminate between individual polymers based on their size6\,7\, the means to quantitate protein concentration8\, and a technique for identifying subtly different species of metallo-nanoparticles9.  In addition\, we recently demonstrated that a nanopore can also be used to identify proteins10-13.  This new method could markedly improve healthcare diagnostics and allow more blood analyses to be performed at point-of-care facilities.  We are also investigating the possible use of nanopores as the read head in molecular-based memory storage devices and the role of ion channels in the competition between bacteria.  This ongoing work is a collaborative effort with groups at Columbia University (Jingyue Ju)\, CY Cergy Paris Université (Abdelghani Oukhaled)\, Freiburg University (Jan Behrends)\, and the DoD (Sina Bavari\, Rekha Panchal\, Captain Rick Gussio\, and Colonel Kelly Halverson). \nBIO:   \nDr. Kasianowicz is the Leader of the Nanobiotechnology Project in the Physical Measurement Laboratory at NIST. He earned a Ph.D. in Physiology & Biophysics from the State University of New York at Stony Brook\, a M.A. in Physics from the State University of New York at Stony Brook\, and a B.A. in Physics (with Distinction) from Boston University. He was a National Academy of Sciences/ National Research Council Research Associate in the Chemical Science and Technology Laboratory at NIST prior to joining the staff and becoming a Leader of the Biomolecular Materials Group. Currently\, John directs the research efforts of staff scientists\, post-doctoral fellows\, and graduate/undergraduate students.  \nJohn pioneered research in five areas: 1) single molecule characterization\, quantification\, and identification; 2) nanopore-based DNA sequencing (he published work in 3 of the 4 methods proposed for this application); 3) elucidating the mechanisms of anthrax toxin action;\, 4) single molecule thermodynamics and kinetics; and 5) development of new methods for membrane protein structure determination. His seminal work in these fields opened other areas of investigation (e.g.\, nanopore-based single molecule force spectroscopy)\, new conferences dedicated to these subjects\, and NIH- and DARPA-based funding initiatives. A range of companies (e.g.\, IBM\, Oxford Nanopore\, Illumina\, Genia Technology (Roche)\, Stratos\, Electronic BioSciences\, and Quantum Biosystems) have been pursuing John’s applied research to develop practical devices for the electronic detection and characterization of individual biological molecules. Several that are using his nanopore-based DNA sequencing technologies are currently valued at $1.8B. His current major foci are the development of nanoscale electronic systems to measure the fundamental properties of single molecules. The work could be applied to storing and retrieving information in molecules\, and simultaneously quantifying many biomarkers (proteins\, DNA\, RNA\, etc.) in single cells\, tissue\, and blood. The latter work would have a marked impact on understanding basic cellular mechanisms and aid the development of quantitative personalized medicine.

SUMMARY:MathWorks Week: Climate\, Energy and the Built Environment
DESCRIPTION:Join MathWorks engineers and Northeastern faculty for these insightful seminars in Climate Change\, Quantum Computing\, and AI. \n\nClimate\, Energy and the Built Environment\nTuesday\, March 1\, 10:30 am – 11:30 am\nRegister: MathWorksNUSymposiumClimate.eventbrite.com \nInsights of climate changes from the Common Era: an Artificial Intelligence view\nJianghao Wang\, MathWorks \nThe rapid global warming seen in observations over the past 150 years shows nearly global coherence\, the spatiotemporal coherence of climate epochs earlier in the Common Era (the past 2\,000 years)\, however\, has yet to be robustly tested. Understanding how the climate system works and how historical temperature changes shed light on the study of anthropogenic climate change. \nModeling the Stochastic Dynamics of Rotating Wind Turbine Blades\nLuca Caracoglia\, Professor\, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering \nThis presentation describes the results of recent research activities\, examining the dynamic modeling of wind turbine blades under the influence of various sources of input error and noise. The presentation will focus on the flutter phenomenon. Flutter is a flow-induced dynamic instability that results from the coupling between flap-wise bending mode and torsional mode of the rotating blade. \nLocating Damage in Structural Systems\nDennis Bernal\, Professor\, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering \nThis presentation outlines the basic ideas behind some techniques used to localize damage applicable in cases where the structure is large\, and the number of sensors is small. Visual inspection has been the traditional procedure used to check the condition of structural systems but there is significant interest in devising ways to replace or enhance this approach by incorporating information from sensors.
