These exciting developments are accompanied by new fundamental challenges that arise regarding the safety and reliability of these increasingly complex systems due to imperfect learning, system unknowns, and uncertain environments. Statistical tools for uncertainty quantification have gained popularity due to their ability to deal with these challenges. However, their guarantees rely on i.i.d. data, an assumption that is violated when control actions change the underlying data distribution.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nIn this talk, I will provide new insight to design safe controllers under distribution shifts using robust conformal prediction (CP). I will begin by advocating for the use of CP due to its simplicity, generality, and efficiency as opposed to existing optimization-based verification techniques. I will then provide an introduction to CP and summarize existing work that uses CP to design probabilistically safe controllers in dynamic environments. Subsequently, we will look into interactive settings where the system’s behavior may change the environment's behavior, and vice versa. This circular dependency creates an interaction-driven distribution shift that invalidates existing CP guarantees. To deal with this problem, we propose an iterative framework that episodically updates the controller while robustly maintaining safety guarantees by quantifying the potential impact of a controller update on the environment's behavior. We realize this via adversarially robust CP where we perform a regular CP step in each episode using observed data under the current controller, but then transfer safety guarantees across controller updates by analytically adjusting the CP result to account for distribution shifts. Lastly, I will show how these ideas extend to handling policy-induced distribution shifts that arise when using barrier/Lyapunov functions to control uncertain systems.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography</strong>:<br>\r\nLars Lindemann is currently an Assistant Professor for Algorithmic Systems Theory in the Automatic Control Laboratory at ETH Zürich.

Provided)<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>INVITED SPEAKER:</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Architecture and Dynamics of Molecular Machines for Biosynthesis: From Polyketide Assembly to RNA Transcription</strong><br>\r\n<a href=\"https://chem.kaist.ac.kr/eng/faculty/view/id/10\"><strong>Prof. Jin Young Kang</strong></a>, Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST)<br>\r\nHost: <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/aerin.yang?lang=en\">Aerin Yang </a><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>Abstract:</strong></u><br>\r\nCells rely on sophisticated molecular machines to build molecules ranging from specialized metabolites to biological macromolecules such as nucleic acids and proteins. Despite acting on chemically distinct substrates, these systems share the need to coordinate catalytic reactions within precisely organized and dynamic macromolecular assemblies. In this seminar, I will discuss how cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) reveals both the molecular architectures and reaction dynamics of two such biosynthetic machines.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nFirst, I will present cryo-EM structures of the polyketide synthase (PKS) module of ClbB, a hybrid nonribosomal peptide synthetase–polyketide synthase involved in the biosynthesis of colibactin, a gut microbiome-derived genotoxin linked to colorectal cancer. The reducing domains of the ClbB PKS module adopt a noncanonical architecture that differs markedly from those of previously characterized modular PKSs. Its enoylreductase forms a central dimeric scaffold, whereas the monomeric dehydratase is positioned at the periphery, producing an unexpected organization of the catalytic domains. Bioinformatic analyses further identified related domain organizations across diverse bacterial phyla, suggesting that ClbB represents a broader, previously unrecognized class of modular PKSs.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nI will then introduce a time-resolved cryo-EM platform that we developed using an integrated parylene thin-film mixer and sprayer. This platform enables reaction initiation and vitrification on the millisecond timescale while substantially reducing sample consumption. We are applying it to investigate the nucleotide addition cycle of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase. By sampling the reaction over a 0–400 ms time window, we seek to determine how closely related transcription intermediates are populated and interconverted during a single round of nucleotide addition cycle. Our initial results reveal a few intermediate states that were not observed in conventionally prepared steady-state samples, while also highlighting the analytical challenges associated with resolving transient and structurally similar states.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTogether, these studies illustrate how cryo-EM can reveal both unexpected architectures of biosynthetic assembly lines and short-lived molecular transitions underlying fundamental cellular reactions.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>Bio:</strong></u><br>\r\nJin Young Kang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry at KAIST, where her laboratory studies the structure and dynamics of macromolecular machines involved in transcription regulation and natural product biosynthesis. She received her PhD from KAIST and trained at The Rockefeller University with Roderick MacKinnon and Seth Darst before starting her independent group in 2019. Her research combines cryo-electron microscopy, X-ray crystallography, biochemistry, mass spectrometry, and computational approaches to understand how dynamic molecular complexes carry out biological functions. Her work has provided mechanistic insights into bacterial transcriptional pausing and termination, and microbiome-derived colibactin biosynthesis. Her group is also developing time-resolved cryo-EM technologies to capture transient structural states and investigate molecular processes in real time.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>STUDENT SPEAKER:</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Towards riboswitch design by ultradeep sequence-function-mapping and deep learning </strong><br>\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/charlotte.desczyk?lang=en\">Charlotte Desczyk</a>, </strong><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/labs/lsam/\">Jeschek Lab</a><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>BioEngineering Talks mandatory EDBB Seminar Attendance (1st-Year PhD Students)</strong>\r\n</p><ul>\r\n\t<li> Attendance sheet to print <a class=\"text-link\" href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kusGxCFPAvWaRD8eUGEBkSVzD1ppMf1g/edit\" target=\"_blank\">HERE </a></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<strong>The BioEngineering Student Seminar Series</strong> is an official course for which students can register and earn credits.<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Register <a class=\"text-link\" href=\"https://edu.epfl.ch/studyplan/fr/ecole_doctorale/biotechnologie-et-genie-biologique/coursebook/bioengineering-student-seminar-series-BIOENG-613\" target=\"_blank\">HERE</a></li>\r\n\t<li>Attendance sheet to print <a class=\"text-link\" href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZGrPnt8LlLuWOApzx32s6L5UPPH8Hyoo/edit\" target=\"_blank\">HERE</a></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<strong>General information:</strong><br>\r\nIn-person attendance is preferred to support your fellow students.

In three dimensions, a magnetic field alone generally produces dispersive Landau bands rather than a bulk-gapped Hall insulator, while familiar constructions often begin with stacked quantum Hall layers. I will present a different route in a periodic pyrochlore crystal, where a [111] magnetic field selects a three-in/one-out texture of localized moments. Through Kondo exchange, this texture effectively produces a noncoplanar four-sublattice exchange field for itinerant electrons, generating complex hopping amplitudes that mix the compact localized states into weakly dispersive bands. Remarkably, the magnetic texture alone can stabilize a globally gapped phase throughout the three-dimensional Brillouin zone. The resulting phase is a three-dimensional quantum Hall insulator with a quantized Hall response characterized by a reciprocal-space Hall vector. I will discuss its microscopic origin, bulk transport signatures, and the properties of its chiral metallic surface states.<br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-11-05T15:34:28", "last_modification_date": "2026-11-05T15:34:28", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "PH L1 503", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==PH%20L1%20503", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/62037974673?pwd=wyXGR0mO9a7X2bmU69iYk1VnLWvnet.1", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<strong>Dr. Zexun Lin </strong>\r\n\r\nUniversity of Cambridge, UK", "organizer": "Yuxuan Zhang, Dmitry Abanin", "contact": "Yazyev Oleg <<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">[email protected]</a> >\r\n\r\nZivkovic Ivica <<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">[email protected]</a> >", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/122620/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/137/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/191/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72348, "title": "School Lecture Series: NP2F architectes / EPFL Architecture", "slug": "school-lecture-series-np2f-architectes-epfl-archit", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/school-lecture-series-np2f-architectes-epfl-archit", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33608/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33608/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33608/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-10", "end_date": "2026-11-10", "start_time": "18:30:00", "end_time": "20:00:00", "description": "<strong>IMVT – Supporter de la Ville</strong><br>\r\nThe Mediterranean Institute for the City and Territories, designed in collaboration with Marion Bernard, Point Suprem, Jacques Lucan and Atelier Roberta, is a unifying entity rather than the simple sum of three existing schools (architecture, urban planning, and landscape studies). The Institute’s purpose is to physically foster relationships, exchanges, and collaborations between the three institutions and their immediate as well as broader environment.

Yet in accepting this reality, we take for granted several questions that loom large within the contemporary idea of learning. In a time when technology and information are ubiquitous, does it still make sense that for learning to happen or be confined within a place? Is learning still an asymmetrical relationship where there are teachers and a student? And above all, is learning accessible, or has it become too expensive a commodity? In this lecture series, we’ll attempt to answer these questions by investigating learning on different levels such as technology, construction systems, educational spaces, and above all, making architecture. Indeed, the question that is more than anything else crucial to us is whether architecture is still a place of learning and not only of empowering those who have capital to build it. We will look at schools, drawings, robots, and measuring devices. We will ponder whether these things are only ‘tools’ to achieve a result or can still be vital places for learning. <br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Recordings available on YouTube</strong><br>\r\n@epflarchitectureschool<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Graphic Design</strong><br>\r\nRoman Karrer & Sandi Gazic", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-08-14T16:43:45", "last_modification_date": "2026-08-17T13:18:51", "link_label": "Poster School Lecture Series Fall 2026", "link_url": "https://go.epfl.ch/school-lecture-series-fall-2026", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Foyer SG", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room=%3DSG%20294.22&dim_floor=2&lang=fr&dim_lang=fr&tree_groups=centres_nevralgiques_grp%2Cmobilite_acces_grp%2Crestauration_et_commerces_grp%2Censeignement%2Cservices_campus_grp%2Cequipements_grp&tree_group_layers_centres_nevralgiques_grp=&tree_group_layers_mobilite_acces_grp=metro&tree_group_layers_restauration_et_commerces_grp=&tree_group_layers_enseignement=guichet_etudiants&tree_group_layers_services_campus_grp=information_epfl&tree_group_layers_equipements_grp=&baselayer_ref=grp_backgrounds&map_x=2532923&map_y=1152547&map_zoom=12", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "NP2F architects", "organizer": "<a href=\"http://[email protected]\" target=\"_blank\">EPFL Architecture</a>", "contact": "<a href=\"http://[email protected]\" target=\"_blank\">EPFL Architecture</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121436/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/32/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72546, "title": "AI Sovereignty: Charting Switzerland's Path Amid US and Chinese AI Dominance", "slug": "ai-sovereignty-charting-switzerland-s-path-amid-us", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/ai-sovereignty-charting-switzerland-s-path-amid-us", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33796/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33796/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33796/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-10", "end_date": "2026-11-10", "start_time": "09:30:00", "end_time": "18:30:00", "description": "<p>As the global AI landscape consolidates around US and Chinese dominance, every nation outside this duopoly faces an urgent question: how can countries retain meaningful control over a technology increasingly expected to shape their economic competitiveness, national security, and societal resilience?
