A Hopeful Message Gets a Hearing

April 18, 2013

…glacier melting. The researchers simulated through computer models how the reduction of global warming effected by short-lived pollutant control would affect the rate of thermal expansion of seawater and empirically accounted for the effects of glacier melt. Without mitigative action, global sea-level rise is expected to encroach upon major coastal…

Possible Source of Kawasaki Disease Found

May 22, 2014

…both in Barcelona, used computer models to simulate air currents and airborne particle transport for all days since 1977 with high numbers of KD cases in Japan, based on data compiled by Dr. Yoshikazu Nakamura and colleagues at Jichi Medical University in Japan. The modeling indicated that KD cases in…

November 2, 2023

Artificial intelligence in all its varied forms is rapidly accelerating, transforming our everyday lives and providing a powerful tool for scientific research. But what does it all mean and what does the future hold? Six UC San Diego experts share their insights.

Science study shows ‘promiscuous’ enzymes still prevalent in metabolism

August 30, 2012

Open an undergraduate biochemistry textbook and you will learn that enzymes are highly efficient and specific in catalyzing chemical reactions in living organisms, and that they evolved to this state from their “sloppy” and “promiscuous” ancestors to allow cells to grow more efficiently.
