SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Revealing Strain and Disorder in Transition-Metal Dichalcogenides Using Hyperspectral Photoluminescence Imaging
DESCRIPTION:Spatial variations in strain and disorder can strongly influence the optical and electronic properties of two-dimensional materials\, even when the samples appear uniform under conventional microscopy. In this talk\, I will show how hyperspectral photoluminescence imaging can map these variations across complete transition-metal dichalcogenide heterostructures. By recording a densely sampled spectrum at each spatial position\, we extract the energies and linewidths of excitons\, trions\, and biexcitons in hBN-encapsulated MoSe₂ and WSe₂ devices. The resulting maps reveal smooth strain gradients\, localized wrinkles and ripples\, and changes produced by thermal cycling. In particular\, resonance linewidth emerges as a sensitive probe of disorder and unresolved strain variations that may be difficult to identify from photoluminescence intensity or peak energy alone. Measurements across several device architectures and fabrication processes demonstrate how this approach can assess optoelectronic uniformity\, identify regions suitable for targeted experiments\, and connect device-scale fabrication quality with local excitonic properties.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:From Genomes to Grains: Engineering Rice for a Changing Climate- 2026 MCDB Connell Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:2026 marks the 25th Anniversary of the Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology department at the University of Michigan and we hope you will join us to celebrate at the 2026 Connell Lecture:\n\nFrom Genomes to Grains: Engineering Rice for a Changing Climate\nThe rapid advance of genetic technologies has provided new tools to generate crops that are resilient to climate change. Professor Pamela Ronald will discuss engineering plants for resistance to infection and strategies to reduce methane emissions in rice.\n\nRonald is a Distinguished Professor in the Dept of Plant Pathology and Genome Center at UC Davis and an Investigator at the Innovative Genomics Institute\, UC Berkeley. She also serves as a faculty scientist in Berkeley Lab’s Environmental Genomics and Systems Biology division and Director of Grass Genetics at the Joint BioEnergy Institute. She is a faculty affiliate of the Center on Food Security and the Environment at Stanford University. \n\nThe Priscilla Connell Memorial Lecture is MCDB's flagship lecture. This annual lecture series has an illustrious history with presentations by Nobel Laureates\, National Medal of Science Recipients\, National Academy of Sciences Members\, and Royal Society Members.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mobilizing Assets via Research and Practice
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will discuss various ways in which the Wu Research Group has mobilized assets both in research and practice beyond conventional assumptions. Two avenues will be discussed: (1) how to collaborate with undergraduates for steering qualitative inquiry\, embracing arts-based methods\, and engaging in reflexivity and (2) how to pursue community-engaged scholarship and spotlight stakeholder agendas\, strengths\, and needs.
