Workshops, talks, and gatherings to get you out into Allston.
Alexander Mathis will connect AI agents’ achievements in dexterous manipulation and sports to classic theories of skill learning, exploring how whole-body computational models can deepen our understanding of human movement and intelligence. A research-level Kempner Seminar, the talk will draw on Mathis’s expertise in motor control and learning.
Explore eventMichael Hicks, a University of Pennsylvania professor and Schlein Center for Cybersecurity director, will present Cedar, an open-source authorization language designed for fast, safe, and analyzable access decisions. The talk will cover Cedar’s real-world use, including authorizing AI agents, and research to extend its capabilities.
Explore eventMIT Assistant Professor and Ragon Institute member Eric Sun will present AI and machine-learning frameworks that use spatial and single-cell data to track aging and predict its effects across tissues. Drawing on expertise spanning Stanford biomedical informatics and Harvard applied mathematics, his work will connect cellular changes to tissue-level effects and generate new research hypotheses.
Explore eventHarvard Bioengineering Assistant Professor Patrick Slade will present a vision for personalizing robotic mobility assistance beyond the lab, combining biomechanics, engineering, and translational research to address patient needs and support independence. A Stanford-trained researcher, Slade leads the Slade Lab and has earned recognition for mentorship and innovation.
