The Jacobs School of Engineering at the University of California San Diego is proud to announce the creation of 18 new endowed chairs. These endowed chairs will empower a world-class cohort of faculty to explore new and innovative research directions.
Through a unique and long-standing collaboration, electrical engineers at UC San Diego are embedded in Jacobs Retina Center to partner with ophthalmologists to develop better computer vision, AI, and image processing tools to help physicians diagnose patients faster and more accurately; predict which drugs will be most successful for specific patients; and even aid in the process of developing new therapeutic treatments for retinal diseases.
Computer science Ph.D. student Naba Rizvi investigates the stereotypes about neurodiversity perpetuated by computer science research in a new study.
A new 3D printing method developed by UC San Diego engineers is so simple that it uses a polymer ink and salt water solution to create solid structures. The work has the potential to make materials manufacturing more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
An artificial intelligence method to detect biomarkers in tumor biopsies promises to cut weeks and thousands of dollars from cancer detection, extending the benefits of precision oncology to underserved and under-resourced patients.
Using powerful new visualization technologies, researchers have captured the first 3-D images of the structure of a key muscle receptor, providing new insights on how muscles develop across the animal kingdom and setting the stage for possible future treatments for muscular disorders.
