SUMMARY:UCSC Summer Academy on Artificial Intelligence for High School Students
DESCRIPTION:UCSC’s Summer Academy on Artificial Intelligence is a four-week\, in-person program for talented and motivated high school students who are interested in exploring artificial intelligence (AI) in a university setting. Hosted at the UCSC Silicon Valley Campus\, the program offers an immersive learning experience that combines foundational AI concepts with hands-on\, research-inspired work. Students learn from UCSC professors and active PhD researchers\, gaining advanced problem-solving skills\, research-oriented thinking\, and a deeper understanding of how AI is applied in cutting-edge innovations. \nApplication Deadline: April 24\, 2026

SUMMARY:The Dickens Universe featuring 'Bleak House'
DESCRIPTION:The Dickens Universe is a unique cultural event that brings together scholars\, teachers\, students\, and members of the general public for a week of stimulating discussion and festive social activity on the beautiful Santa Cruz campus of the University of California—all focused on one or two Victorian novels\, usually (but not always) one by Charles Dickens. In 2026\, the Dickens Universe will feature Bleak House by Charles Dickens. \nDickens’s ninth novel\, published between 1852-1853\, shines a light on social injustice and the devastating effects of a corrupt legal system\, following the entangled lives of those caught in the never-ending Jarndyce and Jarndyce case. Told in alternating narrative voices\, this rich literary experiment plays with a variety of genres from detective fiction and social realism to melodrama and satire. As characters move from city to suburb\, from mansions to slums\, we discover unexpected connections among classes\, plots\, and characters. \nNow in its 46th year of operation\, the Dickens Universe combines features of a scholarly conference\, a festival\, a book club\, and a summer camp. Participants include people of all ages and walks of life—distinguished scholars\, graduate students\, undergraduates\, retirees\, young professionals\, high school teachers\, and anyone who loves reading and enjoys long Victorian novels. \nHere are some things that make the Universe such a special experience. \n\nThe college lifestyle: participants live on campus\, eat together in the student dining hall\, and have time to meet and come to know each other in different ways.\nEveryone is reading the same book. We all have this one important thing in common.\nThe activities include formal lectures\, small discussion groups\, films\, daily Victorian teas\, performances\, and Victorian dancing.\n\nThe Universe offers a week of total immersion in the world of Victorian fiction with friendly\, like-minded colleagues in a beautiful setting. Whether we’re returning to a Dickens novel that everyone knows and loves\, or branching out into a Victorian novel by another author who might be less familiar\, during the Universe we build a community out of our passion for reading\, talking with one another\, and bringing Victorian culture to life. \n\nView the complete schedule\nRegistration options\nPlenary Lecturers and Guest Scholars

SUMMARY:ECE Seminar - "Nanoprobes for Single-Cell Surgery"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Paolo Actis\, Associate Professor of Bionanotechnology at the University of Leeds \nDescription: “Physiological and pathological processes within the human body are controlled by complex cell-cell interactions within the context of a dynamic microenvironment. The ability to dynamically measure phenotypes (i.e. gene expression\, protein activities\, ion fluctuations\, signalling) at the single cell level is key to understanding cellular behaviour in a complex environment. I will be presenting the development of nanoscale tools able to dissect the dynamic contributions of single cells to disease processes.\nI will present the application of nanopipettes for the structural characterization of biomolecules under physiological relevant conditions. I will then discuss the integration of nanopipettes with scanning probe microscopies to enable the quantitative delivery of DNA\, globular proteins\, and protein fibrils into cells with single molecule resolution and that delivery results in a phenotypic change in the cell that depends on the identity of the molecules introduced. Using experiments and computational modelling\, we also show that macromolecular crowding in the cell increases the signal-to-noise ratio for the detection of translocation events\, thus the cell itself enhances the detection of the molecules delivered.” \nReferences \n1 Chau et al\, Angewandte Chemie\, 2026\n2 Chau et al\, ACS Nano\, 2025\n3 Chau et al\, Nature Communications\, 2024\n4 Marcuccio et al\, Science Advances\, 2024 \nBio: Paolo is an Associate Professor in Bionanotechnology at the University of Leeds and his research involves the development of nanoprobes for single-cell analysis and manipulation with single molecule resolution. After graduating in 2008 with a PhD from the Grenoble Institute of Technology (FR)\, Paolo spent 4 years in California working on his tan at NASA Ames (US) and UC Santa Cruz (US) before crossing the pond again to lose his tan at Imperial College London (UK). He then spent two years at Bio Nano Consulting as a Consultant & Project Manager before joining the University of Leeds in 2014 first as Lecturer and since 2020 as Associate Professor. \nHosted by: Professor Marco Rolandi\, Jack Baskin Endowed Chair in Engineering & Chair of Electrical and Computer Engineering \nWhen: Tuesday\, July 28\, 2026 @ 11:30AM PST \nLocation: Jack Baskin Engineering\, Room 330
