WED@NICO SEMINAR: Robert Rallo, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory "A data-driven approach to understand the properties and bioactivity of nanomaterials"
Northwestern Institute on Complex Systems (NICO)
12:00 PM
//
Lower Level, Chambers Hall
Details
Title:
A data-driven approach to understand the properties and bioactivity of nanomaterials
Speaker:
Robert Rallo, Associate Division Director of Data Sciences, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Talk Abstract:
In this talk we will give an overview on the use of Data Science principles to develop computational models and tools for the assessment of the environmental impact of nanomaterials. Specific examples will include the development of management systems for nanotechnology data, the use of machine learning techniques for data-driven discovery and to establish structure-activity relationships. The talk will conclude by discussing the current challenges and future research directions, including the use of deep learning techniques.
Speaker Bio:
Dr. Robert Rallo is the Associate Division Director for Data Sciences in the Advanced Computing, Mathematics, and Data Division at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Before joining PNNL, he was an Associate Professor in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence and Director of the Advanced Technology Innovation Center (ATIC) at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Catalonia. Dr. Rallo served in the European Commission as chair for the Modeling WG in the NanoSafety Cluster (2013-2016) and as co-chair of the US-EU Nano-Dialogue Community of Research on Predictive Modeling and Health (2013-2015). He served also as reviewer for research organizations such as the European Research Council, Horizon2020, COST and the NWO Research Council for Earth and Life Sciences (ALW). Dr. Rallo's research interests are in data-driven analysis and modelling of complex systems of industrial, environmental and social relevance.
