Yoichiro Mori School of Mathematics University of Minnesota Location: Tedori Family Auditorium, Levin Building Cell volume control and osmosis-driven cell movement Electrolyte and cell volume regulation is essential in physiological systems. Biophysical modeling in this area, however, has been relatively sparse. After a brief introduction to cell volume control and electrophysiology, I will […]
Steve Swanson Computer Science & Engineering University of California, San Diego What Should We Do With Persistent Main Memory? Memory systems are on the verge of a renaissance: Scalable, persistent main memories (e.g., Intel’s 3DXPoint) are the first new technology to enter the upper layers of the memory hierarchy in 50 years. They […]
Rebecca Waller Department of Psychology University of Pennsylvania The Developmental Origins of Callous-Unemotional Traits Callous-unemotional (CU) traits are critical to understanding the development of severe forms of aggression and antisocial behavior. CU traits include deficits in empathy and prosocial behavior, as well as reduced interpersonal sensitivity to others. In this talk, I will […]
