Forecaster: Accessible Time Series Predictions

Feb 11, 2026, 12:00 – 1:00 PM

Time series forecasting has applications across domains and industries, especially healthcare, but the technical expertise required to implement these methods can be a barrier to using these techniques. We've developed a web platform that makes the process of analyzing and plotting data, training forecasting models, and interpreting and viewing results accessible to researchers and clinicians. This presentation will discuss this platform, giving insight into how it was developed and how it can be used with a variety of data. Presented by:

Translational Engineering Technology for Women’s Health Applications

Feb 3, 2026, 12:00 – 1:00 PM

Female reproductive and gynecologic health are historically understudied fields that would significantly benefit from engineering expertise due to the unique biomechanical environment in the female reproductive tract and the dynamic tissue changes orchestrated throughout the menstrual cycle by sex hormones. With the synergistic techniques of tissue engineering, biomaterials science, biomechanics, and reproductive biology, we engineer models of the female reproductive system and female lower urinary tract, including the endometrium, decidua, vagina, and bladder.
