SUMMARY:Reza Abbaschian\, Trends in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) Education
DESCRIPTION:Materials research over the last three decades has led to significant advances in the manufacturing of new materials with tailored and unique properties for a variety of applications. These advances have come about mostly because of a highly influential National Research Council study titled “Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) for the 1990’s: Maintaining Competitiveness in the Age of Materials\,” that defined and delineated MSE around four basic elements of synthesis and processing\, structure\, properties and performance.  In this presentation\, an overview of the recent trends in incorporating these four basic elements in MSE education will be given\, followed by an example of the MSE program at the University of California\, Riverside. The program offers interdisciplinary BS\, MS and PhD degrees in MSE. At the undergraduate level\, the program integrates with all five engineering departments in the Bourns College of Engineering (BCOE).  This new approach allows students to have meaningful interactions with engineers from other engineering disciplines who ultimately are the “end-users” of materials.  At the graduate level\, the UCR MSE program integrates with other disciplines such as Physics and Chemistry. \nSpeaker Bio: \nReza Abbaschian began his tenure as Dean of the Bourns College of Engineering and Distinguished Professor and William R. Johnson\, Jr. Professor in September 2005 at UC Riverside. Prior to his appointment at UCR Dr. Abbaschian was the Vladimir A. Grodsky Professor of Materials Science and Engineering Department at the University of Florida\, where he also served as Chair of the Department for 16 years. During his tenure\, the Department rose to a U.S. News & World Report top-ten ranking for both undergraduate and graduate education. \nDr. Abbaschian received his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley\, M.S. in metallurgical engineering from Michigan Technological University\, and BSc in mining and metallurgy from Tehran University. He has published more than 250 scientific articles on subjects ranging from metal processing to composites\, solidification and high temperature-high pressure growth of jewelry diamonds\, which led to the formation of Gemesis Diamond Company. He holds five patents and eight patent disclosures and has authored eight books\, including the recently published fourth edition of Physical Metallurgy Principles. \nDr. Abbaschian is a past President of ASM International\, the largest materials society. His awards include the TMS Educator Award\, Structural Material Division’s Distinguished Scientist/Engineer Award\, TMS Leadership Award\, ASEE Donald E. Marlowe Award\, Davis Productivity Award of the State of Florida\, and the Albert Sauveur Achievement Award which he received on October 2013 in Montreal\, Canada. The award recognized him as “outstanding scientist and researcher in solidification fundamentals and materials processing\, educator and leader in advancing the materials profession.” He has been elected a Fellow of ASM\, TMS and AAAS. \n  \nFree and open to the public\, the CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar Series is a weekly dialogue highlighting leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Each one-hour seminar starts at 12pm PST and is hosted live in the Banatao Auditorium at Sutardja Dai Hall on the UC Berkeley campus (*unless otherwise noted). Lunch is provided at UC Berkeley for those who register in advance. \nLive webcasting of each CITRIS Research Exchange seminar is available at these CITRIS campuses and also online: \n\nCITRIS @ Davis: 1131 Kemper Hall\, College of Engineering\, UC Davis\nCITRIS @ Merced: 322-Willow\, Classroom and Office Building (COB)\, UC Merced\nCITRIS @ Santa Cruz: Room 595B\, Engineering 2 Building\, Baskin School of Engineering\, UC Santa Cruz\n\nAsk questions live via Twitter using #CITRISRE. All talks may be viewed on our YouTube channel at least a week after the event. \nThe full schedule for the CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar Series can be found on the CITRIS site.

SUMMARY:Michael Cohen\, How Online Civic Engagement Can Increase Public Trust in Government
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Title: How Online Civic Engagement Can Increase Public Trust in Government \nBanatao Auditorium\, 310 Sutardja Dai Hall\, UC Berkeley\nWednesday\, March 11\, 2015 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM (PST) \nAbstract:\nOnline civic engagement has the potential to dramatically improve a government’s interactions with its community\, and thereby increase public trust – but only if the online engagement augments participation\, increases insights and avoids challenges related to the issues of undue influence\, transparency\, open data\, privacy\, responsiveness\, civility and free speech. \nThe UC Berkeley spin-out\, Peak Democracy Inc was founded in 2007 with the mission of providing online civic engagement services – in ways that increase public trust in government.

SUMMARY:Stavros Vougioukas\, Automated Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Title: Automated Agriculture: Focus on Harvesting  \nRoom 250 Sutardja Dai Hall\, UC Berkeley\nWednesday\, March 18 \, 2015 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM (PST) \nREGISTER \nAbstract:\nMechanizing the hand harvesting of fresh market crops constitutes one of the biggest challenges to the sustainability of the U.S. fruit and vegetable industry.Depending on the crop\, labor contributes up to 60% of the variable production cost and recent labor shortages have led to loss of production and reduction of planted acreage in several crops. Innovation is desperately needed in the design of mechanical/robotic harvesters and harvest-aid machines for delicate fresh-market crops. This talk will discuss the challenges involved\, and will present new approaches toward model-based design and control of high-throughput harvesting systems\, which are inspired by robotics and automation science. \nStavros G. Vougioukas is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering at UC Davis and works in the area of mechanization and automation of specialty crops\, focusing on the design\, development\, and testing of actuators\, sensors and control systems for optimal management of inputs and products.  \n  \n  \n\nFree and open to the public\, the CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar Series is a weekly dialogue highlighting leading voices on societal-scale research issues. Each one-hour seminar starts at 12pm PST and is hosted live in Sutardja Dai Hall on the UC Berkeley campus. Lunch is provided at UC Berkeley for those who register in advance. \nLive webcasting of each CITRIS Research Exchange seminar is available at these CITRIS campuses and also online at http://video.citris.berkeley.edu/playlists/webcast: \n\nCITRIS @ Davis: 1131 Kemper Hall\, College of Engineering\, UC Davis\nCITRIS @ Merced: 322-Willow\, Classroom and Office Building (COB)\, UC Merced\nCITRIS @ Santa Cruz: Room 595B\, Engineering 2 Building\, Baskin School of Engineering\, UC Santa Cruz\n\nAsk questions live via Twitter using #CITRISRE. All talks may be viewed on our YouTube channel at least a week after the event. \nThe full schedule for the CITRIS Research Exchange Seminar Series can be found on the CITRIS site.

Smart Diaphragm. Vaginal infections in pregnant women pose two major health risks for the unborn child: preterm birth and vertical transmission of infection. Currently\, there are limited options that accurately monitor vaginal conditions. Our device incorporates pH and temperature sensors to ascertain vaginal health and incorporates wireless technology for real-time physician monitoring.b. Aqua Power: Feed forward to a secure water future. Aqua Power is a water use measurement device installed on faucets and showers to provide feedback on the quantity of water being used. Our product is based on the concept that providing continuous real-time feedback is the best change agent\, similar to roadside radar speed signs influence drivers to slowdown.c. Lifenik. Lifenik makes games that help kids develop their brains in ways that promote optimal emotional health. Just like learning math or a foreign language\, research has shown that practicing certain skills can lead to greater emotional health\, well-being\, and fewer mental health issues. Lifenik helps kids learn these skills.d. OhMyCause!. We know there are causes and issues in the world and want to make a difference but don’t know where to start. OhMyCause! is a web platform that connects people with causes and non-profits. A one-stop place for curated information\, actors and projects that match your skills\, passions and situation.e. Piezoelectric Shoe Sole GPS Tracker. We endeavor to manufacture a low-cost and ergonomic children shoe with an embedded GPS data logger powered by piezoelectric materials. The technology will provide a powerful\, more reliable\, energy efficient tracking solution to the growing child abduction epidemic.f. BCAPI. Controlling electronics with your mind is no longer science-fiction. Recent advancements in Brain-Computer Interfacing (BCI) have enabled people with physical disabilities to drive wheelchairs\, write\, and communicate. We are developing an open-source BCI software API that will enable developers to create BCI assistive technologies.g. PINVoice. PINVoice tackles the problem of wage arrears experienced by construction workers in China. PINVoice is an Interactive Voice Response system that acts as an intermediary between labor supplier subcontractors and construction workers. We connect workers to various projects spreading the risk of non-payment over a diverse set of employment options. \n
