For decades, scientists have relied on electrodes and dyes to track the electrical activity of living cells. Now, UC San Diego engineers have discovered that quantum materials just a single atom thick can do the job with high speed and resolution—using only light.
The SXSW Conference will take place from March 7-15 in Austin, Texas, bringing together a vibrant mix of ideas and innovations. Once again, UC San Diego will take center stage, showcasing cutting-edge research, transformative discussions on critical global challenges and a film premiere.
For decades, water’s behavior in extreme conditions has puzzled scientists. A study using SDSC's Expanse has produced compelling evidence that at supercooled temperatures and high pressures, water can exist in two distinct liquid states, each with its own unique structure and density.
The challenge focused on housing insecurity and homelessness. Participants were asked, “How might we design resilient solutions to create a lasting impact on the housing crisis?”
Better simulations to understand how viruses work. Better ways to model and predict climate change. Better robots that can navigate the real world. Researchers from all across UC San Diego and around the world converged on campus last week to explore the promise of generative AI.
A study published in JMIR-Aging evaluating the University of California San Diego’s “Strong Foundations” program – a digitally delivered fall prevention initiative for older adults – emphasized the program’s effectiveness in improving posture, balance and strength — key factors in reducing fall risk
