SUMMARY:Non-Invasive Bladder Volume Sensing for Neurogenic Bladder Dysfunction Management with Dr. Eric A. Kurzrock and Dr. Soheil Ghiasi
DESCRIPTION:Wed\, March 14\, 2018\n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM PT\nBanatao Auditorium\, Sutardja Dai Hall\, UC Berkeley \nRegister to Attend \nAbout the speakers: \nEric A. Kurzrock\, MD\, FAAP Dr. Eric Kurzrock is professor of Urology at University of California\, Davis School of Medicine in Sacramento. He is the chief of pediatric urologic surgery at the UC Davis Children’s Hospital and Shriners Hospital for Children – Northern California. Dr. Kurzrock graduated from UC Berkeley\, biochemistry\, then UCLA School of Medicine. He completed general surgery and urology training at USC and then a pediatric fellowship at UCSF. Dr. Kurzrock is the director of the urologic stem cell laboratory in the UC Davis Institute for Regenerative Cures. He has received funding from Shriners Hospital\, CIRM and NIH. His laboratory was the first to identify and characterize adult urothelial stem cells and also the first to induce human embryonic stem cells and iPS cells into urothelium. He also investigates bladder bioengineering and is currently funded to evaluate angiogenesis in tissue engineering models. Dr. Kurzrock has also written extensively on pediatric urologic outcomes. Dr. Kurzrock currently chairs\, Clinical Quality Improvement for the department\, and serves on the Quality Safety Operations Committee\, Children’s Surgery Performance Improvement and Patient Safety Committee\, Electronic Medical Record Faculty Committee and the Practice Management Board Finance Committee. He is a past member of the Society of Pediatric Urology executive committee and is currently a member of the Journal of Urology editorial committee. \nSoheil Ghiasi is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of California\, Davis. His research interests include architecture\, design methodologies\, and design automation techniques for embedded systems\, with particular emphasis on systems that find applications in human health. He received his B.S. degree from Sharif University of Technology\, in 1998\, and his M.S. and Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of California\, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2002 and 2004\, respectively. He has served on the organizing and technical program committees of numerous conferences\, and associate editor of several Journals in the broader area of embedded computing systems. He is a senior member of IEEE and ACM. \nTalk abstract: \nMillions of patients suffer from the consequences of spinal cord injury (SCI) and congenital spinal anomalies. Although many of these patients have obvious limitations in mobility\, unbeknownst to the general public is that nearly all have neurogenic bladder dysfunction and lack control of their bladder. Since SCI patients are unable to sense bladder fullness\, they are recommended to catheterize every 2 to 4 hours throughout the day. This high frequency of emptying adds insult to injury . A common problem is making the trip to the bathroom and only finding a small amount of urine in the bladder. Or worse\, not getting to the bathroom in time and leaking because the bladder was too full. To address this problem\, we aim to build a non-invasive\, patch-like device that would be worn by SCI patients to receive timely alerts for starting to look for a bathroom to perform catheterization. The device would utilize an array of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors to infer spatial expansion of the bladder. The underlying physical principle exploited by our device is measurement of back scattered light at wavelengths for which water has high absorption coefficient (e.g.\, ~950nm) via an array of light source and detectors with fixed distances. We will develop machine learning algorithms to identify patterns in light absorption maps generated by the sensor array\, and to personalize the alert to better match individual patient’s body characteristics and preferences. Extensive empirical studies with bladder replicas\, swine bladder and healthy human volunteers will be carried out. \n—————– \nFree and open to the public.

SUMMARY:​"​Micro-Synchrophasors for Distribution Systems​" with Sascha von Meier
DESCRIPTION:Wed\, March 21\, 2018\n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM PT\nBanatao Auditorium\, Sutardja Dai Hall\, UC Berkeley \nMicro-Synchrophasors for Distribution Systems with Sascha von Meier\, Adjunct Professor\, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at UC Berkeley and directs the Electric Grid Research program at the California Institute for Energy and Environment (CIEE) \n\n  \nWednesday\, March 21st\, 2017\nBanatao Auditorium\, 310 Sutardja Dai Hall\, UC Berkeley\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm\nhttps://meier -citrisre.eventbrite.com \n \n\nFree and open to the public. Please note any registrations made after 12pm on Monday will not receive a free complimentary lunch\, help yourself to leftovers after the Q&A session.\n\n  \nTalk abstract:\nMaking electric grids more intelligent\, resilient and carbon-neutral hinges on innovation at the distribution level\, the nexus between customers and the larger scale transmission system. A key challenge in this area has been the need for high-quality data\, to give visibility into the actual operating state of distribution networks. Five years ago\, a Berkeley-led team embarked on an ambitious ARPA-E funded project to develop a new type of sensor\, the micro-PMU\, and a new database to facilitate the use of these rich\, synchronized time-series measurements in grid operations and analysis. This talk will summarize outcomes of this project and some of the ongoing research\, at Berkeley and around the world\, that builds on the new technology. \n\n\n\n\n About the speaker: \nAlexandra (Sascha) von Meier is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at UC Berkeley and directs the Electric Grid Research program at the California Institute for Energy and Environment (CIEE). Her work is driven by the vision of a nimble\, adaptable and resilient electric power infrastructure that optimally recruits resources such as solar photovoltaics\, energy storage and electric demand response to support the transition to a carbon-neutral electric grid. Her current projects focus on the use of high-precision micro-synchrophasor measurements for situational awareness\, diagnostics and control applications in power distribution systems.\n\n\n  \n\nFree and open to the public.
