Announcing our next professional speaker, Zachary Danziger! He will be giving a talk titled "Our Neurotechnological Humanity."

"Do we corrupt our humanity by absorbing ever more technology into our lives, and perhaps into our brains and bodies, or is the embrace and exploration of new technologies an essential part of our humanity? Using binoculars or hammers does not make us any less human and is a fundamental aspect of what makes us distinct from the rest of the natural world. Perhaps there is a limit, though, that when crossed, we lose ourselves in the technology. Technologies that interact with our nervous system directly acutely trigger this type of “gone too far” instinct because the brain, and through it, the mind, seems like the seat of our identity and is somehow sacred. But I argue that neural technology, like brain-computer interfaces and nerve stimulation, embraces and enhances our humanity. We can see these new technologies as though on a spectrum, with caffeine on one end and brain-implanted electrodes on the other. Experimental neural interfaces have augmented the minds of research animals and humans, granting new sensing capabilities to rats and new avenues for those living with paralysis to affect their surroundings. The human brain is central in the design of “brain”-computer interfaces. We should embrace an intimate marriage between humanity and technology, especially neurotechnology, because it is an expansion of ourselves rather than a loss or dilution of our identity."

Come see Zachary Danziger and our full lineup of speakers on April 5th in the Cyrpess Theater inside the John Lewis Student Center!

Announcing our next speaker for our RESAISSANCE Spring Speaker Conference: Micky Chhabda! Micky will be giving a talk titled "We all know how to read—but do we truly read data?"

Micky will explore the thin line between knowing how to read and truly reading data. At 27, a simple question at the grocery store changed the way Micky thought about decision-making. As an engineer-turned-analytics consultant, Micky had spent years working with data but had never questioned their everyday choices. That moment led to a powerful realization about how we consume information, products, and ideas—and how we interpret data in business, marketing, and personal decisions.

Micky will share how a subtle shift in perspective transformed the way he saw the world—and how it might change yours, too. Because sometimes, the most profound changes start with simply reading what’s right in front of us.

Announcing our first speaker for our RENAISSANCE Spring Speaker Conference!

Saman Zonouz will give a talk titled "The Invisible War: Protecting Our Future from Cyber Threats"

"Imagine waking up in a world where drones no longer fly safely, autonomous cars refuse to stop, and robots meant to assist us turn against their commands. This isn't science fiction—it's the reality we face as cyber threats increasingly target the critical systems that power our daily lives. From smart cities to AI-driven industries, our world is more connected than ever, but with great innovation comes great vulnerability. At Georgia Tech, our research lab is on a mission to defend the invisible battleground of cyber-physical systems, ensuring that the future of automation remains secure and resilient. In this talk, we’ll uncover the hidden dangers lurking beneath our technology-driven society and explore how we can outsmart cyber adversaries before they outsmart us."
