Biological Engineering Seminar Series
Conference/Seminar
The BE Department's Seminar Series Speaker, Mr. Abraham Verdoees, BioEngineering Manager at ELITechGroup, will present: "Technology and Regulatory Requirements in Research and Development Environments: The Effect on Experiments and Businesses".
January 13th at 12:30 am in ENGR 326
The research and development (R&D) environment is always evolving to keep pace with novel technology and new regulatory requirements. Keeping pace includes updating analytical procedures, adapting to electronic notebooks and signatures, and compliance with 21 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) Part 11, among others. FDA regulation compliance affects the whole laboratory, including instrumentation, from scales to HPLCs. Regulation and technology changes, along with other global shifts, are impacting the way experiments are conducted and data are handled in the modern laboratory. Today's presentation will look at the skills and solutions needed to comply with modern regulatory requirements, how technology is informing these approaches, and the practicality of different tactics across business contexts.
A meet and greet with Mr. Verdoes will be held immediately following the seminar in ENGR 326.

Struggling with Mathematics: The Good, the Bad, and the Beautiful!
Conference/Seminar
The ways in which we have traditionally used the word “struggle” in mathematics need to change. All students need GOOD opportunities to struggle with concepts in mathematics in order to make sense of the world around them. No student should be told that they are BAD at math by being labeled as low or struggling. Each individual student deserves guidance to find ways to use their strengths as mathematical assets. We, as teachers of mathematics, can facilitate a classroom in which all students contribute their strengths and learn from others’ strengths to create a class unified in the goal of learning and growing. It is then that both teacher and student alike will see the BEAUTIFUL designs in the seemingly random collections of people, numbers, opportunities, and challenges. These claims will be presented in the context of Dr. DeLeeuw’s personal experiences as a Utah high school teacher and university professor and supported by his and others’ research about mathematics education.

Applied Mathematics Seminar: Extreme First Passage Times of Diffusion
Conference/Seminar
Speaker: Sean D Lawley, Department of Mathematics, University of Utah
Abstract: Why do 300 million sperm cells search for the oocyte in human fertilization when only a single sperm cell is necessary? Why do 1000 calcium ions enter a dendritic spine when only two ions are necessary to activate the relevant receptors? The seeming redundancy in these and many other biological systems can be understood in terms of extreme first passage time (FPT) theory.
While FPT theory is often used to estimate timescales in biology, the overwhelming majority of studies focus on the time it takes a given single searcher to find a target. However, in many scenarios the more relevant timescale is the FPT of the first searcher to find a target from a large group of searchers. This fastest FPT depends on extremely rare events and it is often orders of magnitude faster than the FPT of a given single searcher. In this talk, we will explain recent results in extreme FPT theory and show how they modify traditional notions of diffusion timescales.
Elder Lynn G. Robbins Devotional
Conference/Seminar
Come to the annual Joseph Smith Memorial devotional at the USU Spectrum. All young adults ages 18-30 are invited. This year's speaker will be Lynn G. Robbins, a general authority seventy of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Doors to the USU Spectrum will open at 5:00pm, and you should be seated fifteen minutes before the devotional begins. Public parking is available in the yellow lot north of the spectrum, and the athletic parking lot east of the soccer field. There will be no public parking immediately west of the spectrum.
Biological Engineering Seminar Series
Conference/Seminar
The BE Department's Seminar Series Speaker, Dr. Rahman Emamzadeh, Visiting Scholar at Utah State University, will present: "Renilla luciferase-based Biosensors; at Attempt to Produce Luminescent Probes for Robotic Clinical Laboratories".
January 27th at 12:30 pm in ENGR 326
Come and hear about how the decrease in production costs of robotic devices along with their speed and accuracy have made them attractive tools for potential use in diagnostic laboratories. However, not only devices but also the probes that are used as biosensors on these tools need to be developed. This presentation looks at some of the Renilla luciferase-based biosensors developed in the protein manipulation laboratory at University of Isfahan. These probes may simplify the detection of some human diseases and may have great potential for use in robotic devices.
A meet and greet with Dr. Emamzadeh will be held immediately following the seminar in ENGR 326.

Applied Mathematics Seminar: Dynamic Fraud Detection via Sequential Modeling
Conference/Seminar
Speaker: Shuhan Yuan, Computer Science Department, USU
Abstract: Due to the openness and anonymity of the Internet, online platforms (e.g., online social media or knowledge bases) attract a large number of malicious users, such as vandals, trolls, and hoaxes. These malicious users impose severe security threats to online platforms and their legitimate participants. For example, the fraudsters on Twitter can easily spread fake information or post harmful links on the platform. Deep learning models have achieved promising results in image, text, and speech recognition. The key ingredient for the success of deep learning is because it learns meaningful representations of inputs. However, it is challenging to develop deep learning models for fraud detection. In this talk, I focus on tackling two challenges, lack of labeled training data and how to model physical time for fraud detection.
