Registration

08:45 - 09:00am


Welcome and announcement of the EECS Distinguished Alumni awardees - Professors David Culler and Tsu-Jae King Liu youtube logo

09:00 - 09:30am


"Flexible Medical Devices: Imaging and Health Monitoring" - Professor Ana Arias youtube logo

We will discuss the use of printed flexible devices in medical devices that monitor heath signs such as pulse rate, blood oxygenation and temperature.

09:30 - 10:00am


"Combating Internet Attacks By Infiltrating Cybercrime" - Professor Vern Paxson youtube logo pdf logo

Many Internet attacks require attackers to operate at a scale that necessitates interacting with unknown parties - rendering their activities vulnerable to “infiltration” by defenders. This talk will sketch research that has leveraged such infiltration to striking effect.

10:00 - 10:30am


"Cyborg insects and other things: building interfaces between the synthetic and the multicellular" - Professor Michel Maharbiz youtube logo pdf logo powerpoint logo

An overview of our ongoing exploration of remote control of insects in free flight via implantable radio-equipped miniatureneural stimulating systems; recent results with pupally-implantedneural interfaces and extreme miniaturization directions.

10:30 - 11:00am


"Berkeley Institute of Data Science" - Professors Saul Perlmutter & David Culler youtube logo pdf logo powerpoint logo

This talk will present Berkeley's new interdisciplinary institute for data science.

11:00 - 11:30am
