Researchers Map Lung Development After Birth Into Late Childhood for the First Time
April 12, 2022
How do the lungs develop after taking their first breaths outside the womb? What cellular events and changes early in life give rise to lung malfunction and disease? UC San Diego researchers developed a single-cell atlas of postnatal lung development that could help answer these questions.
Using Everyday WiFi To Help Robots See and Navigate Better Indoors
May 20, 2022
UC San Diego engineers have developed a low cost, low power technology to help robots accurately map their way indoors, even in poor lighting and without recognizable landmarks or features. The technology uses WiFi signals, instead of light, to help the robot “see” where it’s going.
HIV Transmission Networks Mapped to Reduce Infection Rate
June 5, 2014
…University of California, San Diego School of Medicine have mapped the transmission network of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in San Diego. The mapping of HIV infections, which used genetic sequencing, allowed researchers to predictively model the likelihood of new HIV transmissions and identify persons at greatest risk for transmitting the…
Looking Beyond DNA to See Cancer with New Clarity
September 30, 2021
In three Science papers, UC San Diego and UC San Francisco researchers mapped out how hundreds of gene mutations involved in cancer affect the discrete groups of proteins that are the ultimate actors behind the disease. The work points the way to identifying new precision treatments.
Scripps Receives NOAA Award to Study Clouds, One of the Largest Uncertainties in Climate Change
September 2, 2020
Scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego have received an award from the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to study low cloud “hot-spots,” one of the largest uncertainties in climate change models and predictions.
Bioengineers Lead NIH Center to Map the Gene Activities of Individual Cells in Human Cortex
October 16, 2012
Bioengineers at the University of California, San Diego have received a $9.3 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to establish a single-cell genomics center and develop a three-dimensional map of gene activities in individual cells in the human cortex.
A New Map Reveals the Complicated World in Which Cells Seek to Repair Damaged DNA
May 22, 2023
UC San Diego scientists develop an interactive software that enables scientists to better investigate the DNA damage response.
Genetic Tools Help Identify a Cellular Culprit for Type 1 Diabetes
May 19, 2021
By mapping its genetic underpinnings, researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have identified a predictive causal role for specific cell types in type 1 diabetes, a condition that affects more than 1.6 million Americans.
International Consortium Builds ‘Google Map’ of Human Metabolism
March 4, 2013
Building on earlier pioneering work by researchers at the University of California, San Diego, an international consortium of university researchers has produced the most comprehensive virtual reconstruction of human metabolism to date. Scientists could use the model, known as Recon 2, to identify causes of and new treatments for diseases…
