Johns Hopkins Engineering

June 11 at @JHUBloombergCtr in DC: Laboratory to Launchpad convenes researchers, entrepreneurs, & industry leaders to explore how breakthrough energy research goes from lab to marketplace. Students, faculty, & postdocs encouraged to attend! Register: engineering.jhu.edu/materials/labo…

Thanks @icmlconf! Managing 15+ papers took a lot of time, but I really appreciate this. I hope we start seeing rewards for academic service roles in more venues. See you in Seoul! 🇰🇷

Can’t wait to start my Master’s at @JohnsHopkins this fall! The journey is going to be absolute fire I’m so excited to dive in, meet some seriously brilliant minds, and watch those career doors swing wide open. Let’s gooo! 🎓🚀🤞🏻 #JohnsHopkins #JHU #GradSchool #NewBeginnings

Baltimore students of all ages came to campus last month to be wowed by materials science! Materials Science Day was a student-run opportunity for community members to make slime, play with hydrogels, and build crystal structures out of pretzel sticks and marshmallows.

Can we learn to recognize artificial uncertainty as a proxy for real uncertainty? As LLMs memorize more of the internet, they become correctly confident on almost any existing question you can throw at them. Creating new challenging calibration data is unsustainably expensive.🧵

🥳 I am incredibly honored and grateful to receive the 2026 @UNC Distinguished Dissertation Award! This award recognizes four recipients across the whole university, and I’m humbled to represent the Mathematics, Physical Sciences, and Engineering category this year. Many thanks to my advisor @mohitban47, our MURGe-Lab family, and the @unccs @unc_ai_group for their constant support! 🙏 This is a great reminder of all the good memories from my PhD journey before I start my faculty career at The Johns Hopkins University 😊

🧀"The systems that we rely on are really like Swiss cheese when it comes to the potential for cyberattacks." Anton Dahbura, Executive Director of our Information Security Institute (@JHUISI), talks to the Washington Post about the Canvas breach.

“I have confidence that if you want to talk to an AI without anyone else seeing your conversation, including Meta, this will do the job.” - @JHUCompSci Assoc Prof @matthew_d_green

Let your vision model see and interact with the 3D world. Introducing LychSim, a simulation framework for modern vision research. 🧵

The vasculature system as mapped by CODA. Color coded by radius size and Strahler order. We found that the vasculature for mouse, rhesus macaque, chicken, and turtle have the same scale-free space-filling fractal geometry (D = 3). Here: biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Today at 4:30: Don P. Giddens Inaugural Professorial Lecture recognizing Yanxun Xu, as professor in @JohnsHopkinsAMS. In the Glass Pavilion or stream LIVE on YouTube. "From Data to Optimal Decisions: Bayesian Learning and AI for Personalized Medicine." youtube.com/user/HopkinsEn…

Huge thanks to Blackbird Laboratories for hosting a group of @JohnsHopkins grad students! They toured the facility, learned how Blackbird invests in early-stage tech and translates research from bench to bedside, and wrapped up with a great networking session. Inspiring!

Congratulations to Malone Center member @YanxunXu on her election as an American Statistical Association Fellow! Xu was recognized for her contributions to Bayesian methods and their impact on health, clinical research, and large-scale data analysis. malonecenter.jhu.edu/yanxun-xu-elec…

GO HOP! This weekend, @HopkinsLacrosse and @jhumenslacrosse begin first-round play in the 2026 NCAA Tournament. Good luck and GO HOP!

5/5: Oliver Nizet is majoring in @JHU_ChemBE @JHUCompSci and plans to pursue a PhD in bioengineering focused on cancer and infectious disease therapeutics. He works in Prof Denis Wirtz’s lab on gynecologic and prostate cancer research.

4/5: Sameer Gabbita is majoring in @JHUBME and plans to pursue an MD-PhD studying gene expression and disease. He works in Tej Azad’s lab on artificial intelligence applications for neurocritical care.

🧵1/5: Meet Hopkins Engineering's '26 Goldwater Scholars—recipients of one of the oldest & most prestigious national scholarships. 454 U.S. students were selected from more than 5,000 sophomores and juniors demonstrating exceptional promise in STEM. engineering.jhu.edu/news/four-hopk…

Excited to share our work on Multi-contrast Laser Endoscopy (MLE), published in npj Imaging. Challenge: Evaluating new contrast methods through size-constrained endoscopes without disrupting clinical workflow. Our solution: don’t replace the colonoscope — retrofit it. (1/8)⬇️
