For the second year, a group of community college students has been immersed into cutting-edge research at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego through the Scripps Geosciences Educational Opportunities (Scripps-GEO) program.
UC San Diego Assistant Professor of Physics Mattia Serra and colleagues at Politecnico di Milano (Italy) have developed a new method that can manipulate the movement of embryonic cells using short-time attractors — a concept Serra had previously developed and adopted to help search and rescue operations at sea.
Nigel Goldenfeld, a Chancellor’s distinguished professor of physics at UC San Diego, and Mark H. Thiemens, a distinguished professor of chemistry and biochemistry at UC San Diego, have been elected to the Fellowship of the Royal Society, the United Kingdom’s national academy of sciences.
UC San Diego celebrated a significant milestone with the opening of its new Kendall-Frost Marsh Reserve Field Station and Community Learning Center. The facility, located at the heart of the marsh, represents a major step forward in the university's commitment to environmental research, education, and community engagement.
UC San Diego biologists have provided new insights on a longstanding puzzle in biology: How complex organisms arise from a single fertilized cell. Producing a new “gene atlas” with 4D imaging, the researchers captured unprecedented insights on how embryonic development unfolds.
Etienne Palos is a fourth year UC San Diego Ph.D. student specializing in theoretical and computational chemistry in the lab of Francesco Paesani. The graduate student discusses his background, his experience as a Latinx student in STEM and more.
