SDSC Graduate Student Awarded NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship

March 27, 2012

A graduate student working in the Walker Molecular Dynamics laboratory at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) at the University of California, San Diego is a recipient of the 2012-2013 NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program award for his innovative molecular dynamics research using GPU (graphics processing unit) computing.

Scientists Slow Aging by Engineering Longevity in Cells

April 27, 2023

Researchers have developed a biosynthetic “clock” that keeps cells from reaching normal levels of deterioration related to aging. They engineered a gene oscillator that switches between the two normal paths of aging, slowing cell degeneration and setting a record for life extension.

National Biomedical Computation Resource Receives $9 Million from National Institutes of Health

August 27, 2014

The National Biomedical Computation Resource (NBCR) at the University of California, San Diego has received $9 million in funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The funding will allow NBCR to continue its work connecting biomedical scientists with supercomputing power and emerging information technologies.

Resetting the Biological Clock with Flip of the Molecular Switch

February 25, 2020

Scientists work to understand circadian rhythms at the molecular level to help develop innovative therapies for fixing biological clock dysfunctions caused by inherited conditions, modern habits, shift working or aging.

New $42M Grid-Tech Sandbox Will Help Get More Renewables on Electric Grids

July 16, 2024

A dozen buildings on the University of California San Diego campus. All of the campus’ solar panels. All the chargers for electric vehicles. More than 2,400 light fixtures. More than 800 smart plugs. These are some of the assets that DERConnect, a NSF-funded testbed for the powergrid, will be able…

‘Molecular Distancing’ Presents Pathway to Remote Chemical Reactions

May 7, 2020

UC San Diego chemists find way to artificially make molecules in solution exchange vibrational energy at room temperature, challenging the current paradigm in chemistry. Details of their discovery are published in Science.

The Climate Games

May 16, 2024

Now funded with a new state grant, a team at UC San Diego Qualcomm Institute is developing “The Climate Games,” an educational video game set in locations already experiencing the impact of a changing climate.

SDSC Enables Large-Scale Data Sharing Using Globus

April 7, 2014

The San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) at the University of California, San Diego, has implemented a new feature of the Globus software that will allow researchers using the Center’s computational and storage resources to easily and securely access and share large data sets with colleagues.

Breakthrough with Quantum Materials Pushes Biologically Inspired Learning Devices

April 14, 2021

UC San Diego physicists have created new artificial devices that mimic basic learning functions carried out by neurons in the human brain. They demonstrated how quantum materials could be used to develop new devices that can “learn” to switch between functional states.
