📆 APTC/CCF Distinguished Lecture Series 
 
Date: Friday June 5th, 2026
Time: 11am – 12pm
Location: in-person CC NE1-205 and virtually via MS Teams
 
Our guest speaker will be Ranu Jung, Ph.D.; Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Engineering and most recently served as the Founding Executive Director & Endowed Chair of the Institute for Integrative and Innovative Research (I3R), Associate Vice Chancellor at University of Arkansas

Dr. Jung will be presenting: 
“Closing the Loop: Biohybrid Neurotech in Action”
This talk explores innovations in neurotechnology and biohybrid systems, focusing on the integration of technology with biology combining the adaptability of nature with the precision and versatility of machines and algorithms.   Highlighting advances in computational neuroscience and neural engineering, the presentation will discuss the development of neuromorphic controllers inspired by spinal circuitry, adaptive orthoses for mobility post-injury, and neural-enabled prosthetic systems that deliver sensory feedback to individuals with upper-extremity amputation. Emphasis will be placed on closing the loop between biological and artificial systems to promote adaptation, improve user experience, and advance toward seamless, reliable biohybrid integration for both clinical and everyday applications.
