Researchers at the UC San Diego Sustainable Power and Energy Center are part of two cutting-edge Energy Innovation Hub teams that have collectively been awarded $125 million in funding over the next five years by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The aim: to accelerate the development of the next generation of batteries that can handle society’s increasing demand for low- and zero-carbon energy.
University of California San Diego School of Medicine researchers find advanced AI could lead to easier, faster and more efficient hospital quality reporting.
In 2018, a team of the nation’s leading semiconductor experts from industry and academia began a five-and-a-half year journey to complete a moonshot challenge: develop electronic design automation (EDA) tools for 24-hour, no-human-in-the-loop semiconductor chip layout generation. Led by UC San Diego and backed with $17.2 million from DARPA, the researchers did it.
Researchers from the San Diego Supercomputer Center, part of the School of Computing, Information and Data Sciences (SCIDS) at UC San Diego, have launched a new initiative to advance science and technology that addresses wildland fire challenges in an era of more frequent and devastating megafires.
From better algorithms for self-driving vehicles, to better solutions for robotics surgery, and better ways for robots to manipulate objects, researchers at the University of California San Diego are presenting their work at the IROS 2024 conference Oct. 14 to 18 in Abu Dhabi.
AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics for work he began at UC San Diego with cognitive psychology colleagues here four decades ago.
