  • 【Seminar】David Pui - Green Technologies Development for Sustainable Environment
    We are developing green technologies to benefit sustainable environment, which will enable people and the environment to prosper together. The Center for Filtration Research (CFR) at the University of Minnesota, collaborating with 20 leading international filtration manufacturers and end users, was established to develop green technologies to mitigate PM25, VOCs, ozone and other environmental pollutants.
  • 【Seminar】M Taher A Saif - Living machines
    Since the discovery of genes, there is a considerable body of knowledge on engineering living cells. It is now possible to envision biohybrid machines and robots with living cells and scaffolds. These machines may self-assemble and emerge from complex interactions between the cells and the scaffolds at various hierarchical levels.
  • 【Seminar】Xunli Wang - Deformation at low temperatures - microscopic insights from in situ neutron diffraction measurements
    The study of mechanical behaviors under extreme conditions has been a focus of extensive research. The need for structural materials that can withstand high temperatures has long been recognized as a major challenge in the development of new energy technologies. Similarly, applications requiring materials with exceptional strength and ductility at low temperatures, such as in deep-sea and space explorations, are equally important.
