Brandon Wong, Research Fellow, Civil and Environmental Engineering, remotely activates valves to control the flow of water throughout an 11 square mile area of Ann Arbor.
Wong and his team under Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering Branko Kerkez created one of the most densely instrumented systems in the country. The experiment pushes the boundaries of what is achievable with the Internet of Water by using valves to instantly redesign these spaces collectively as a system ready to immediately adapt to unpredictable changes in storm patterns.

Necmiye Ozay, an assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science talks to Lars Petter Nilsson, EECES Graduate Student Research Assistant, and her group testing their software at Mcity - U-M's model town for autonomous vehicles. Unlike most driverless cars, which are programmed by humans, Ozay's method uses a form of artificial intelligence. Given the vehicle specs, the rules of the road, and the laws of physics, their algorithm can program the car to drive safely.

Kevin Leach, CSE Research Fellow, and Kevin Angstadt, CSE PhD Student, run a demonstration in which an autonomous vehicle drives while it is being attacked over Wifi in the M-Air Facility on North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on September 28, 2018.
Westley Weimer, CSE Professor, and his group of researchers have created "Trusted and Resilient Mission Operation," software that hardens autonomous vehicles to detect and repair current attacks, and prevent future attacks.

Daniel Lebbin investigates habitat specialization by Amazonian birds, focusing on a remarkable group of birds that inhabit patches of spiny Guadua bamboo. From a platform above a Peruvian forest, he prepares to survey a bamboo patch below, hoping to learn what aspects of bamboo make this habitat favorable for bird specialization.

Gideon Billings, Robotics Ph.D. Student and Nick Goumas, Research & Development Engineer with the DROP Lab (droplab.engin.umich.edu) pack up their autonomous underwater vehicle that can conduct image surveys. This image data would then be post-processed with various neural networks to detect and record the numbers of fish and mussels of certain species. This system would then be used to determine the populations of these species across the great lakes.

Kaihua Zhang, Graduate Student Research Assistant from Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering, simulates marine structures in real world degradation while recording the crack length using UV light and a GoPro camera inside the Gerstacker Engineering Research Building at the Materials Science and Engineering Lab Room 1020 on Wednesday, February 6, 2019.
Photos of the crack are quickly analyzed by computer vision algorithms to calculate the length. The developed method can be applied to ships for monitoring structural health.

BME Assistant Research Scienstist Ramkumar Tiruvannamalai Annamalai goes through the process steps with his team to develop injectable cell clusters that create micro-climates accelerating bone regeneration inside lab 2453 at the Ann and Robert H. Lurie Biomedical Engineering Building on July 19, 2019 in Ann Arbor, MI.
Expanded and primed progenitor cells, taken from bone marrow or fat tissues, are encased with biomaterials that give cues to regenerate bone more quickly than untreated cells.
The project, developed by BME Professor Jan Stegemann and lightheartedly called "bone spackle" envisions a scenario where you could use cells from other people and have a ready to use, off the shelf bone filling product primed to regenerate bone inside any body.

"The location is great--the cost of living, quality of life, proximity to Research Triangle Park and other universities, nearby airport, and the easy commute to the mountains or beach make it fun to live here and easy to visit other places."
"A great thing about Duke Physics is the recent and impressive collaboration between a variety of medical, scientific, and engineering departments in the fields of photonics and systems biology. Being able to do new basic science with real-world applications to fields like neuroscience or biomedical imaging for cancer diagnosis makes the research more relevant and engaging."
"The feel of the department is different from that of other universities because the entire structure of the graduate program is designed to educate and train us rather than focusing on what we can do for the professor. The faculty care about what they can do for us."

Research Categories: Quantum Optics, Nonlinear Optics, Cold Atoms
Research Description: I am interested in studying nonlinear optics at low light levels. Because the nonlinear response of a material is typically very small, large intensities (i.e., large numbers of photons) are needed to see significant nonlinear effects. In my research, I am investigating ways to enhance the material's nonlinear susceptibility by coherently modifying its properties. Specifically, I use an anisotropic magneto-optical trap (MOT) to produce a sample of mico-Kelvin temperature atoms confined to a small, cigar-shaped region of space. These cold atoms act as my nonlinear medium; by applying additional magnetic and optical fields, I study and alter their nonlinear response.
My current work focuses on a phenomenon known as recoil-induced resonances (RIRs), whereby a two-photon Raman scattering process coherently couples atomic momentum states. In addition to providing large gain/absorption with relatively small incident probe powers (~20pW), the fact that the atoms recoil gives rise to atomic bunching in the spatial domain. This bunching can result in collective radiation from the sample, giving superlinear scaling with atomic number. I am currently studying the transition from single to collective effects in our MOT.
Another interseting feature of the RIRs is the inhomogeneously broadened nature of the atoms, which allows for the selection and manipulation of individual momentum states. This allows us to tailor the gain profile of the atomic sample via momentum state engineering. Also, by individually addressing momentum states, classical information storage via holeburning or quantum information storage via photon echo techniques are possible. I am currently investigating the feasibility of these techniques.
