SUMMARY:ECE Distinguished Lecture: Ubiquitous Active Surfaces
DESCRIPTION:ECE DISTINGUISHED LECTURE: Ubiquitous Active Surfaces \nProf. Vladimir Bulović\nProfessor of Emerging Technologies\, MIT\nTuesday\, March 31\n3:30-5:00 PM (ET)\n102 ISEC Auditorium or Teams \nWhat if any surface could generate light\, harvest solar energy\, sense motion\, or emit sound? Paper-thin devices are making this possible — turning walls\, windows\, and everyday objects into active technology. Prof. Bulović will showcase newly invented MIT technologies and the startups bringing them to market. \nAbout the speaker: Founding Director of MIT.nano\, holder of 120+ U.S. patents\, and author of 300+ research articles (cited 70\,000+ times). His lab’s spinouts — including QD Vision\, Ubiquitous Energy\, and Swift Solar — have brought thin-film technology to millions of users worldwide.

SUMMARY:Ignorance Is Bliss: A Career Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:  \nDean Gregory D. Abowd will present his SIGCHI Lifetime Research Award Acceptance Lecture \nDate: Tues.\, June 13\, 2023 \nTime: 5:30 to 7:15 PM\, reception following Dean Abowd’s talk \nPlace: In-Person and Livestream\nBostonCHI meeting at Northeastern University in ISEC Auditorium (102 ISEC)\, and reception in ISEC Atrium \nRegistration is appreciated but not required. View BostonCHI for more information. \nPresentation Abstract: In 1988\, as a graduate student grappling to find a research identity\, Gregory D. Abowd accidentally discovered the field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Over the past 35 years\, he pursued a passion for applying the tools and techniques of computing to uncover how the human experience with technology can be understood and transformed. That leap into HCI was just the first of a number of leaps of faith. Abowd’s career has been a series of shifting research agendas\, each one inspired by some life events. In all cases\, he was buoyed by a bevy of talented and supportive colleagues\, advisors and advisees alike\, who gave him the courage to jump into a research topic that he didn’t know much about. That “ignorance” has allowed him to be more fearless than he had the right to be. In this talk\, Abowd will reflect on his professional journey\, hoping to inspire others to dispel fear of the unknown and unlock their potential. Life\, like research\, is best when shared with others whom you can respect and befriend. \n—————————————— \nGregory D. Abowd\, dean of the College of Engineering and professor of electrical and computer engineering at Northeastern University\, has received the Lifetime Research Award from the Association for Computing Machinery’s (ACM) Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (SIGCHI). The award is presented to individuals for “the best\, most fundamental\, and influential research contributions to the study of human-computer interaction (HCI)” and is awarded for a lifetime of innovation and leadership. \n
