MIT.nano's video: Tanya Talkar PhD candidate MIT Lincoln Laboratory

As part of the 2020 SENSE.nano Symposium: The Body At All Scales, MIT students presented brief segments on their research on sensors and sensing as it relates to the human body and human health. In this peek into research, Tanya Talkar discusses her work using signal processing and machine learning techniques to develop insights and characterizations of motor coordination problems, particularly focused on speech production. The 2020 SENSE.nano Symposium, held virtually on September 21, 22, and 29, was an exploration of sensing the body at all scales. From the level of cells, organs, and body systems to individuals and populations, this symposium will highlighted the needs for new sensing technologies, showcase research and innovations, and present the impact of these technologies. Over a series of invited technical talks, panel discussions, presentations by MIT-launched startups, and a view into MIT research with current graduate students, the event provided needs context and solution perspectives in the domains of sensing for the study of biology and for the care of humans in their environment. The 2020 Symposium was sponsored by MIT.nano, MIT Industrial Liaison Program (ILP), MIT Institute for Medical Engineering & Science (IMES), and MIT Clinical Research Center (CRC).
