The day will begin with presentations from PhD candidates approaching the end of their PhD journey\, who will share insights and outcomes from their re search. This will be followed by an introduction to the opportunities and initiatives offered by the newly established IEEE Student Branch of the Un iversity of Catania\, a student hub designed to promote interdisciplinary collaboration\, skill development\, and innovation. After a coffee break\, the event will feature a poster session where other PhD students will pre sent their ongoing research\, encouraging open discussion and idea sharing in a dynamic academic setting.\n\nAgenda: \n14:30 - 14:45 Welcome\nOral P resentations (PhD Candidates from the 38th Cycle\, soon completing their P hD)\n14:45 - 14:55 Allegra Martina - “Exploiting Artificial Intelligence in Volcanic Monitoring for Distributed Acoustic Sensing Analysis and GNSS -Based Source Inversion”\n14:55 - 15:05 Berlotti Mariaelena - “Machine Learning for Urban Intelligence: Building Predictive Smart Cities”\n15: 05 - 15:15 Bua Giuseppe - “Thermo-Mechanical Modeling of Power Electroni cs Packages and Experimental-Numerical Characterization of Materials under Static and Dynamic Loadings”\n15:15 - 15:25 Cariello Simona - “Toward s Quantifying Volcanic and Climate Interactions Through AI-Enhanced Modeli ng and Satellite Remote Sensing”\n15:25 - 15:35 Cecconello Thomas - “T owards Scalable Scientific Discovery: AI Paradigms for Next-Generation Rad io Surveys”\n15:35 - 15:45 Corso Alessandra - “Methods for the Modelli ng and Control of Artificial and Natural Complex Networks”\n15:45 - 15:5 5 Curto Claudio - “AI-Driven Software Security: From Static Vulnerabilit y Detection to Adversarially Robust Defense”\n15:55 - 16:05 Cutuli Emanu ela - “Automatic Label-Free System for Cell Viability On-a-Chip”\n16:0 5 - 16:15 Di Grande Sarah - “Machine Learning for Computational Sustaina bility: Predictive Models for Energy\, Urban Mobility\, and Healthcare”\ n16:15 - 16:25 Puglisi Gabriele - “Strategies and Systems for Modelling\ , Real-Time Control and Data Acquisition in Magnetic Confinement Fusion” \n16:25 - 16:35 Russo Enrico - “Design Automation and Optimization for P ost-Moore Computing Architectures: Hardware Accelerators and Quantum Compu ters”\n16:35 - 16:45 Sgroi Roberta - “Procedure for Energy Management and Optimization of Renewable Energy Integration for Public Administration s in Small and Medium-Sized Municipalities”\n16:45 - 17:00 IEEE Student Branch of University of Catania: Opportunities\n(Counselor: Prof. Maide Bu colo\, Chair: Emanuela Cutuli)\n17:00 - 17:30 Coffee Break\n17:30 - 18:30 Poster Session (All the other PhD Students from 38th\, 39th\, and 40th Cyc les)\nIEEE Student Branch of the University of Catania: Info Point & Regis tration\nPHD BRAINSTORMING DAY 2025 is a one-day event dedicated to foster collaboration\, knowledge exchange\, and netwo\n\nCatania\, Sicilia\, Ita ly\, 95123 LOCATION:Catania\, Sicilia\, Italy\, 95123 ORGANIZER:maide.bucolo@unict.it SEQUENCE:17 SUMMARY:PHD BRAINSTORMING DAY 2025 URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/511903 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>PHD BRAINSTORMING DAY 2025 is a one-day ev ent dedicated to foster collaboration\, knowledge exchange\, and networkin g among students.
