UC San Diego researchers have identified a microbial DNA signature in blood plasma that reliably differentiates primary liver cancer from metastatic colorectal cancer.
8 UC San Diego Breakthroughs Powering a Safer, Stronger Nation
A patient survives a high-risk surgery. A wildfire is stopped before it reaches a neighborhood. A fighter pilot safely returns home. Discover the UC San Diego breakthroughs making these moments possible.
How Can Visual Artists Protect Their Work from AI Crawlers? It’s Complicated
One of the best ways to protect artists’ creative work is to prevent it from ever being seen by “AI crawlers” – the programs that harvest data on the Internet for training generative models. But most artists don’t have access to the tools that would allow them to take such actions.
Simple Algorithm Paired with Standard Imaging Tool Could Predict Failure in Lithium Metal Batteries
A simple yet powerful method to characterize how lithium deposits in lithium metal batteries could lead to the development of safer, longer-lasting and more energy dense batteries for electric vehicles and grid-scale energy storage.
New AI Tool Learns to Read Medical Images With Far Less Data
A new AI tool could make it much easier — and cheaper — for doctors and researchers to train medical imaging software, even when only a small number of patient scans are available. It could lead to faster, more affordable diagnostic tools, especially in hospitals and clinics with limited resources.
