From October 22nd until October 26 with its peak day and main celebration on October 24th, 2022, Diwali is celebrated both religiously and culturally worldwide.

 

Also known as “The Festival of Lights”, Diwali celebrates the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil with family gatherings, colorful lights, and fireworks. With the use of “diyas” (lamps), households are all decorated in this celebration.

 

Diwali is primarily celebrated by those of Hindu, Sikh, and Jain faiths, with a large cultural celebration by people throughout the world. Along with the light of diyas, fireworks are set off on the night of Diwali as a representation to ward off evil spirits. Family is another large aspect of Diwali with the gathering of loved ones while eating sweets and other foods.

 

Traditions of Diwali can be found here.

 

All from i3b are wishing that Diwali brings warmth and peace.

 

Have a joyful Diwali!

CSEE faculty forming site to join the NSF BRAIN national center for neurotechnologies

 
Age-related diseases and neurological disorders, such as stroke, spinal cord injury, and traumatic brain injury, can have debilitating effects on cognitive-motor function, significantly decreasing the quality and length of life. There is a critical need for new technologies to better address the care and rehabilitation of these disorders. 

However, innovation in these neurotechnologies faces many challenges: slow evaluation rate compared to their rapid invention, insufficient standards for safety, efficacy, and long-term reliability, long time-to-market delays, and affordability. To address these problems, UMBC has partnered with the University of Houston and Arizona State University to propose a new site to join a multi-institution Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (IUCRC) for Building Reliable Advances and Innovation in Neurotechnology (BRAIN).

With the support of an NSF IUCRC planning grant, CSEE Professor Ramana Vinjamuri is working to establish the UMBC site to be part of the larger BRAIN effort. His vision is for an East Coast BRAIN research hub that will develop technologies that can help scientists better understand the nervous system and aid people with disabilities. In proposing UMBC as a future BRAIN site, he hopes to connect with industry, medical centers, and government agencies specifically seeking to accelerate neurotechnology research. 

Neurotechnology is a broad discipline that includes everything from methods for measuring brain activity to tools for analyzing clinical data to human-centered computing, the focus of Vinjamuri's research. The proposed UMBC BRAIN site will have five research themes:

As an initial step in joining the BRAIN research center, UMBC and Georgia Tech held an NSF IUCRC planning meeting in September for the proposed site addition. NSF program directors and evaluators attended the meeting, along with current BRAIN center directors and partners, prospective collaborators from industry and universities, and UMBC administrators, faculty, and students.


Current CSEE chair Anupam Joshi and  acting-chair Mohamed Younis expressed strong support for the proposal:

"We're delighted to bring together our significant activities in brain research, spanning areas in EE, CE, and CS -- from electronics to signals to systems to software -- to work with the BRAIN center to address the significant challenges in this area. UMBC knows the power of industry, government, and academia coming together in I/UCRCs to create new research and a diverse workforce to address critical national challenges."

as did UMBC's Vice President of Research Dr. Karl Steiner:

"I am delighted that with the new BRAIN Center, UMBC will be joining a second national IUCRC consortium. My appreciation to Ramana Vinjamuri for his leadership and congratulations to the entire UMBC team on joining this exciting, new consortium."

If you are interested in participating in this exciting research or discovering more about its planned activities, contact Professor Vinjamuri.

Gems from high achieving, high impact women

REGISTER NOW AND SAVE THE DATE: Representation matters! Are you curious to learn how TOP women in academia / industry have navigated identity- based challenges and achieved success in their field?  FREE FOOD & Raffle Prizes Included?

The CWIT Student Council in collaboration with ISSA, GSA, BSA, McNair, and NSBE will be hosting a Professional Development Workshop & Panel Discussion on November 10th in the Commons Skylight Room.

The workshop portion features two guest speakers both: a career coach and a career strategist who will focus on Confidence, Joy and Balance in career and professional development. The duo are co-founders of the startup Taking it Pro, that helps women achieve career and professional success by providing quality professional tools and resources, career guidance, and an alliance of remarkable women.

Our panel portion will include stories and questions posed to our four (4) remarkable panelists (see below) who will share how they were able to navigate challenges including imposter syndrome, toxic work environments and advance in their careers while working in fields where they were underrepresented minorities.

In addition to being able to ask their burning questions about navigating the behind-the-scenes of internships / jobs, attendees will be entered into a raffle for prizes such as signed copies of the speakers’ book “W.I.S.E. Rebel Moves”.

REGISTRATION

Note: this event will be capped at the first 100 persons; register now and save the date to secure your spot! Please de-register if you will no longer be attending.
