CECS Virtual Faculty Research Talks

The UCF College of Engineering and Computer Science (CECS)'s Zoom-cast series is live-streamed every other Friday from noon to 1 p.m., offering talks by CECS faculty and a live-chat Q&A. 

Targeted to faculty, scientists, and potential industry and government partners, all are invited to Zoom-in and hear presentations by UCF’s engineering and computer science faculty who explain their cutting-edge, pioneering research endeavors in quick snapshots. 

These talks provide an opportunity to get to know and collaborate with our faculty who are advancing innovations in all areas of engineering and computer science, including smart city technology, aerospace, energy, modeling and simulation, medicine, advanced materials, cyber security and more. Each faculty presenter will narrate as they share illustrative slides.

Moderated by Subith Vasu from the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, the session allows viewers to submit questions in real-time and express interest in collaborating. 

The Oct. 17, 2025, presenter lineup:

• Yu Fu, Department of Computer Science: "Democratizing Data Practices: Enhancing Data Analysis, Communication and Consumption with Visualization"
• Kirill Medvedev, Department of Computer Science: "From Protein Domains to Cancer Subtypes: Harnessing the Power of Classification Algorithms to Advance Biology"
• Minas Pantelidakis, Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Systems: "A Generic Digital Twin Ecosystem for Computer Numerical Control Manufacturing Processes"
