IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar: Work/Life Balance & Stress Management

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/409050

Stress can be defined as a state of worry or mental tension caused by a difficult situation. 45% of American college students claimed to undergo "more than average stress" while 33% of students reported "average stress." Stress influences our mood, affects our relationships and inhibits our success. In this webinar, we'll discuss how stress impacts our lives (including beneficial ways) and steps we can take to reduce and even prevent stress.

EDS/CASS Distinguished Lecture: Semiconductor Innovation for Transformative Impact

Room: Campus Center - Ballroom B, Bldg: Campus Center Second Fl, 154 Summit Street, Newark, NJ 07102, NJIT, Newark, New Jersey, United States, 07102

Semiconductor technology advancements have enabled the capability and cost of computing devices to improve exponentially over time, with transformative impact - witness the rise of cloud computing and the Internet of Things, which together with advances in machine learning have ushered in the era of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Today’s leading-edge microprocessor chips comprise 80 billion transistors. The complexity of these semiconductor devices requires sophisticated design automation tools and manufacturing facilities, which are increasingly expensive and capital intensive: a leading-edge chip fabrication plant, or “fab,” costs roughly $10 billion. As a result, close collaboration between electronic design automation (EDA) companies, fabless chip design companies, chip manufacturers, wafer fabrication equipment (WFE) companies, materials suppliers, and outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) companies is necessary to sustain the exponential pace of technology advancement. This seminar will begin by providing a high-level overview to explain why chips are considered “the new oil,” with a market projected to grow to $1T by the end of this decade. Then it will discuss challenges ahead for the industry and the need for new innovations and talent. As an example, integration of nano-electro-mechanical switches with conventional CMOS transistors to enable dramatic improvements in computational speed and energy efficiency will be described. The importance of a culture of inclusion for spurring innovation with maximum positive impact will also be discussed.

Unified HIV Risk Evaluation: Employing Technology for Personalized Testing and Prevention Strategies

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/410585

IEEE PCJS Young Professional Talk Series 2024 Unified HIV Risk Evaluation: Employing Technology for Personalized Testing and Prevention Strategies [] Mingchao He Data Analyst in the Cancer Epidemiology and Health Outcomes Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey About the Talk Considering the evolving landscape of travel influenced by the ongoing and post-pandemic scenarios of COVID-19, the judicious allocation of medical resources remains a pertinent concern. Therefore, we undertook a comprehensive analysis utilizing HIV testing data sourced from CDC BIFSS spanning the years 2016 to 2020. Our study incorporates five demographic independent variables, gender, age group, race/ethnicity, transmission category, and regions of residence. By comparing the results of our regression analysis with several existing models, we identified the model that best aligns with the empirical data. We then superimposed and integrated this outcome with Bayes' theorem to determine the level for individuals at risk of HIV, providing tailored inspection recommendations. About the Speaker Mingchao He obtained his Master's degree from Rutgers University in 2021. Beginning in 2020, he contributed his expertise to Ambio Inc. as a Clinical Analyst, where he specialized in analyzing COVID-19 infections. In 2021, he transitioned to Symrise INC as a Marketing Research Analyst, where his responsibilities included collecting brainwave image data for specific compounds through clinical trials. He meticulously analyzed and rated preferences for these compounds. Since 2022, Mingchao has been an integral part of the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, serving as a Data Analyst in the Cancer Epidemiology and Health Outcomes. Mingchao focuses on studying the impact of neighborhood social and physical environments on access to prostate and breast cancer screening. Additionally, Mingchao is actively involved in investigating racial disparities within a cohort of individuals with cancer, specifically among Black and White populations.
