Bernadette Bucher

Bernadette Bucher is an Assistant Professor in the Robotics Department at University ofMichigan. She leads the Mapping and Motion Lab which focuses on learning interpretable visual representations and estimating their uncertainty for use in robotics, particularly mobile manipulation. Her work has been recognized by a Best Paper Award in Cognitive Robotics at ICRA 2024 and ...

Anne McNeil

Our research aims to address some of the world’s biggest challenges through chemical recycling of waste plastics, developing methods to capture microplastics, measuring microplastics in the environment, and designing redox-active molecules for energy storage applications. Accomplishments and Awards

Mark Moldwin

I am the PI of NASA's Geospace Dynamics Constellation (GDC) Mission's NEMISIS magnetometer. GDC consists of six spacecraft to measure the energy flow from the magnetosphere to the ionosphere. This energy creates structure in the upper atmosphere that can disrupt communication and navigation signals, damage power grids, and decrease satellite lifetimes. My goal is to ...

Hsing-Wen (Edward) Lin

As an observational astronomer, my primary research interests lie in the exploration and characterization of minor planets within and beyond our solar system. My work encompasses: Discovery of Distant Minor Planets: I actively engage in the search for distant minor planet populations that serve as a fossil record of our solar system. These remote bodies ...

Brian Kiedrowski

Dr.Kiedrowski’s research focuses on the development of methods related to understanding the interactions and transport of particle radiation (neutrons, photons, and charged particles) within matter. To solve these problems, he employs both traditional numerical linear algebra methods and Monte Carlo simulations and apply data-driven approaches for the purpose of acceleration and uncertainty quantification. Specific projects ...

Silas Alben

I develop and use optimization algorithms (Newton-based, gradient-based, and genetic algorithms) to understand problems in fluid and solid mechanics with applications to biology. Examples of optimally efficient snake locomotion

Karen Smith

I work in algebraic geometry, especially over finite fields. The set of points on an algebraic variety over particular subfields forms an interesting sequence of data sets. Studying it may, I hope, unlock some secrets of algebraic curves or surfaces or higher dimensional objects. I am also interested in connecting statistical forms of AI (machine ...

Charles Brooks

Our work is focused on the applications of statistical mechanics to the modeling and simulation of processes in biology, ranging from small molecule discovery for therapeutics and tool molecules, novel free energy methods for drug and protein design, biocatalyst discovery and design, and protein and RNA folding. Data science and machine learning, more specifically, are ...

Efe Yamac Yarbasi

Dr. Yarbasi’s expertise lies in uncertainty quantification for complex systems, verification and validation (V&V) processes, robotics, energy systems modeling within smart building infrastructures, and systems engineering. Prior to joining U-M, he collaborated extensively with government and industry on a range of projects, including the development of a surgical endoscopy robot and the energy optimization of ...
