Let's Talk: Mental Health Office HoursWhat is it? The Let's Talk: Mental Health Office Hours program provides informal, confidential consultation with therapists from SHaW. Services are free of charge and offered on a first come, first served basis and are about 15-20 minutes. More info like dates, time and location can be found below. Clinicians provide support, coaching, and connect students to other campus resources as needed. Although therapists provide this service, it is not a substitute for formal counseling. The Let's Talk: Mental Health Office Hours program is also not suited to treat mental health emergencies; students who are experiencing a mental health crisis should see Crisis Support or Immediate Support Resources.Who is it for? Students who may benefit from attending a Let's Talk: Mental Health Office Hours session include: Students who want help connecting to resources but are unsure where to begin Students who are looking for advice on a non-clinical issue Students who are unsure about therapy and are curious about what it is like to talk to a therapist Students who may have concerns about the mental health of a friend and seek advice on how to support their friend If a student is not an imminent risk, and is refusing your support in contacting our office, you may also consider contacting the UConn Student CARE Team (https://studentcareteam.uconn.edu/). How is this program beneficial? Let's Talk: Mental Health Office Hours creates space for students to seek immediate support for non-crisis concerns. By doing so, we support students in need before they reach the level of crisis. Furthermore, Let's Talk contributes to our social justice mission by reducing barriers to mental health services for student populations who are less likely to seek formal mental health treatment.

Electrical and Computer Engineering Department Title: Learning-Based Optimization and Control of Active Distribution Systems: Voltage Security, Cybersecurity, and Outage Mitigation   Abstract: Active Distribution Networks (ADNs) with high penetrations of inverter-interfaced Distributed Energy Resources require coordinated voltage control, outage resilience, and cyber-physical security. In this thesis the operational challenge is formulated as a constrained decision process whose state combines nodal voltages, power injections, load forecasts, and threat indicators, while the action space unifies inverter set-points, network-switch commands, and protection settings. Within this unified framework a distributed Volt–VAR optimizer—implemented with the actor–learner architecture on Ray RLlib—is trained across Monte-Carlo solar- and load-scenarios to sustain ±5% voltage compliance with sub-second convergence. The same decision-process formulation is extended with probabilistic storm forecasts, enabling a hybrid model-predictive/deep-reinforcement learning strategy that pre-positions storage and schedules switch operations, thereby reducing expected customer downtime by more than 60% in hurricane simulations. Building directly on the Volt–VAR control security, a two-stage cyber-defense pipeline safeguards the controller against data manipulation. First, a ResNet classifier augmented by explainable-AI examines streaming phasor measurements and large-language analysis of control logs to flag stealthy perturbations of inverter Volt–VAR curves in real time. Second, a Bayesian-optimized Stackelberg formulation leverages the same decision variables to prescribe counteractions and topology adjustments that restore voltage bounds under worst-case false-data injections, thus closing the loop between detection and mitigative control. The resulting secure and resilient framework is finally extended to islanded operation. Reduced-order dynamic models of grid-forming inverters, combined with safe deep-reinforcement learning, map admissible proportional–integral gains and co-optimize real and reactive power commands under explicit voltage, frequency, and power-sharing constraints. This agent admits only safe actions, enabling reliable black-start of multiple microgrids across uncertain load-pickup profiles and completing an end-to-end control architecture for tomorrow's inverter-dominated distribution systems.

This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to supporting students' sexual health and wellness throughout the summer. No appointment is necessary.Please note: The office will be closed on Tuesday, June 10.

Title: Remote Sensing of Roadside Forest- Infrastructure System

Join us for an information session on the ISA Dissertation Fellowship, hosted by members of the Fellowship Committee. The ISA Dissertation Completion Fellowship is open to applicants from across the social sciences and humanities working in the broad field of International Studies. It is intended to support graduate students in the final stages of dissertation writing, typically in the last year of their PhD program. While the fellowship is open to all eligible graduate student members of ISA, the committee particularly encourages applications from groups, genders, and nationalities that have been historically underrepresented in the field of International Studies. Preference will also be given to students without access to other sources of funding to assist with dissertation completion. Applications open on July 1, 2025. More information on the fellowship can be found here (https://www.isanet.org/ISA/Governance/Committees/Dissertation-Fellowship/Call). PRESENTERS: Patrick A. Mello (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Committee Chair) and Sam O. Opondo (Vassar College, Committee Member). Interested in being notified of upcoming webinars? Sign up for ISA Connected, a monthly newsletter with information on all of ISA's upcoming virtual programming, here: https://www.isanet.org/Programs/Virtual-Programs/ISA-Connected (https://www.isanet.org/Programs/Virtual-Programs/ISA-Connected)
