Upcoming Doctoral Dissertations

"Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable hematologic cancer marked by the accumulation of malignant plasma cells within the bone marrow. Despite advances in immunotherapy, including
natural killer cell-based strategies, MM cells frequently evade immune surveillance due to protection from the bone marrow microenvironment." Read more

"Additive Manufacturing (AM) has emerged as a transformative technology, yet ensuring consistent part quality remains challenging due to complex thermal dynamics, layer-by-layer fabrication, and material microstructure changes. Postprocess inspection methods to assure part quality are typically costly, time-consuming, and unable to provide real-time feedback for print process optimization." Read more

"Truth is the foundation of trustworthy, ethical, and competitive AI. Without a factual basis, large language models (LLMs) may appear fluent while thinking erroneously, mimicking reasoning yet inherently misunderstanding causality, thereby growing a gray box where misconduct flourishes. Recent advances like RLHF and RLAIF strive to align LLMs with human intent but falter when labels are absent, biased, or unverifiable." Read more

"There has been a great amount of speculation on how gravity works on a quantum level, but very little
experimental input. Recently, we have shown that single gravitons, the expected quantum particle of gravity,
can be detected. Here I will summarize how single gravitons can be detected and discuss how this result
facilitates the study of gravitational waves and the exploration of quantum gravity, inspired by historical tests
probing the quantization of light." Read more

"The three essays provide a comprehensive understanding of how organizations and individuals adapt their social media behaviors to evolving algorithmic environments, institutional expectations, and audience dynamics in the digital communication era." Read more
