Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz

Presenter: Eve Laroche-Pinel, Postdoctoral Researcher, California State University, Fresno Description: Advances in remote sensing, drone platforms, and data analytics are enhancing the ability to monitor agricultural systems at fine spatial and temporal scales. This presentation will highlight applied research using multispectral and hyperspectral data from satellites, drones, aircraft, and ground platforms to assess crop water […]

Paul Pena, D. (CSE) – Efficient Pattern Counting in Sparse Graphs and Hypergraphs

Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz
Hybrid Event

Pattern counting is a fundamental problem in computer science with applications in many domains. For a fixed small pattern H, we are given a large graph G and we are asked to count the number of subgraphs or homomorphisms (edge-preserving maps) of H in G. For practical applications where the input graph can be very […]

Privacy’s Defender: Fight Against Digital Surveillance with Cindy Cohn

Humanities 1 Building 257 Cowell-Stevenson Road, Santa Cruz

Privacy’s Defender Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) Executive Director Cindy Cohn’s Journey Inside the Privacy Battles That Shaped Today’s Internet Cindy Cohn has devoted her life to the fight for digital rights. She’s tangled with federal officials to keep our online conversations secure from the government’s prying eyes, fought to ensure that you are told when […]

Bai, G. (BMEB) – Long-read single-molecule chromatin architecture and its role in transcriptome regulation

Biomedical Sciences Building 575 McLaughlin Drive
Hybrid Event

Sequencing technologies have revolutionized our understanding of biology, yet many existing methods require fragmentation of DNA or RNA, fundamentally limiting our ability to study these molecules in their native, intact forms. Long-read sequencing overcomes this constraint by enabling the sequencing of long, single-molecule native DNA and RNA, providing simultaneous access to both sequence and base […]
