AI is speeding up antibiotic discovery, but turning digital candidates into real drugs remains a challenge. In @Nature, @delafuentelab (@PennEngineering) shares how his lab uses genAI to design new compounds, and why lab validation remains a hurdle. https://t.co/Py4HA03Vls

At the 2025 AI Research Mixer, @RainaXin presented her work on multimodal research in biomedicine. Xin is currently a doctoral student in @PennEngineers' @cis_penn department. The event was co-hosted by @PennASSET, IDEAS Center, @WarrenCntrPenn, DDDI of @PennSAS, and @_PennAI.

At the 2025 AI Research Mixer, @sehgal_neil, a doctoral student in @PennEngineers' @cis_penn department, presented his work on using AI to help people make better health decisions. The event was co-hosted by @PennASSET, IDEAS Center, @WarrenCntrPenn, DDDI of @PennSAS, & @_PennAI.

Penn researchers have developed glasses that use radar and on-device AI to monitor health through blinking, offering insight into fatigue, focus and eye strain. https://t.co/2gHAroA6rA @PennEngineers, @cis_penn, @PennAsset, @mingmin_zhao, #WearableTech #AIGlasses

Join us tomorrow!

AI infrastructure spending is accelerating following the $300B Oracle–OpenAI deal. Professors @Lee_BenjaminC (@ESEatPenn, @cis_penn, @PennEngineers) spoke with @MarketWatch about short-term risks and long-term potential. https://t.co/ZXBAOMEeIs #AIInfrastructure #AIInvestment

At the 2025 AI Research Mixer, @dbthaker, a doctoral student in @PennEngineers' @cis_penn department, presented his work on applying machine learning to image restoration. The event was co-hosted by @PennASSET, IDEAS Center, @WarrenCntrPenn, DDDI of @PennSAS, and @_PennAI.

Thank you to all who joined our AI Research Mixer last week! We had 13 great faculty talks, over 30 student/postdoc posters, and Jenn Wortman Vaughan, Senior Principal Research Manager at Microsoft Research, delivered the keynote on generative AI. https://t.co/u8Bq82tlOQ

At the 2025 AI Research Mixer, Ben Shaffer, a doctoral student in @PennEngineers' @MEAM_Penn department, presented his work on physics-inspired machine learning for robotics. The event was co-hosted by @PennASSET, IDEAS Center, @WarrenCntrPenn, DDDI of @PennSAS, and @_PennAI.

I was so pleased to have an excuse to visit my alma mater and catch up with colleagues and friends last week. Penn is such a special place and vibrant community of scholars.

Thank you to all who joined the 2025 AI Research Mixer. @jennwvaughan (GEng’06, Gr’09) of @MSFTResearch delivered the keynote on generative AI. The event was co-hosted by @PennASSET, IDEAS Center, @WarrenCntrPenn, DDDI of @PennSAS, and @_PennAI.

AI-powered robots are replicating artwork to help artists earn more. @CIS_Penn Prof. @mkearnsupenn notes that increasing availability of once-scarce works could shift how their value is perceived. https://t.co/IN6D3drZoZ #AIandArt #GenerativeAI

Congratulations to @pappasg69, recipient of the Test of Time Award at RV 2025 for the paper “Robustness of Temporal Logic Specifications,” co-authored with Georgios E. Fainekos. Pappas is the UPS Foundation Professor of Transportation in @ESEatPenn, @MEAM_Penn and @cis_penn.

At the 2025 AI Research Mixer, Sydney Pugh, a postdoctoral researcher at the AI-4-AI Lab, presents her research on developing AI systems for early detection of cognitive impairment. Event co-hosts: @PennASSET, IDEAS Center, @WarrenCntrPenn, DDDI of @PennSAS and @_PennAI.

In @AmazonScience, @CIS_Penn Professor @mkearnsupenn explores the scientific questions behind agentic AI, from context and communication to privacy and negotiation. https://t.co/DPpbpB8Y7l @WarrenCntrPenn #AgenticAI #AIResearch

"It feels as though we’ve barely absorbed the rapid development and adoption of generative AI technologies such as large language models (LLMs) before the next phenomenon is already upon us, namely agentic AI," writes @mkearnsupenn for @AmazonScience. https://t.co/ms8cLQ1jZu

Agentic AI presents new scientific frontiers, like deciding what language agents should speak and modeling agentic negotiations. In this analysis, Amazon Scholar @mkearnsupenn examines how researchers must address context sharing, privacy, and users' commonsense policies:

Now in its second year, the Raj and Neera Singh B.S.E. in AI program at @PennEngineers has grown to 120 students. Hear what new AI students are looking forward to this semester. #BackToCampus #AIStudents

last friday & today i showed my @PennEngineers undergrads how to use google's @NotebookLM to organize course materials -- audio, textbook, learning objectives, etc. they fall hard for the audio/video overviews, but i think it's the mindmaps that are really the stellar feature.

To tackle antibiotic resistance, @PennEngineers researchers @pranamanam and @delafuentelab teamed up. Together, they used generative AI to design and test new antimicrobial molecules. https://t.co/5HQRcS3iEh #DrugDiscovery #AIForScience
