Welcome to the second week of our BME 280B seminar series, a weekly seminar covering topics of current research in computational biology, and bioinformatics. Open to all, food will be provided. Class enrollment is not required. Please join us this week to learn more about the works of Erich Weiler and Dr. Paulina Tolosa […]
Presented by: Jin Zhang, Chief Engineer @ iRay Group Description: “Photon-counting detectors measure individual X-ray interactions, enabling fine spatial sampling and energy-resolved imaging. This seminar connects semiconductor signal formation and readout electronics […]
Presenter: J. Xavier Prochaska, Professor, UC Santa Cruz Description: I will present two current and challenging research problems from the domains of astrophysics and oceanography which are leveraging standard Bayesian methods. After describing the datasets, scientific goals, and currently methodology, I will welcome a discussion on ways to improve, advance, and/or replace the current approaches. […]
Presenter: Dr. Kelli Gutierrez, CSU Monterey Bay Description: Many microswimmers propel themselves using flagella, which are thin, threadlike filaments that beat in a periodic wavelike motion. The flagellar beat emerges from the coupled interactions between the surrounding fluid and the active and passive responses of the flagellum. Previous studies have observed the qualitative shape of […]
Dr. Antonio Roman-Alcalá has been participating in food and farming movements in California for over two decades. He’s founded urban farms, taught organic horticulture, and made documentary films about why […]
Presenter: Enter the speaker’s name, title, and institution at the top of the event Description: Optimal transport (OT) provides a principled way to match, compare, and interpolate distributions, but its […]
Presenter: Reza Fazel-Rezai, Senior Science and Education Application Engineer, MathWorks Description: Please join us to learn how to accelerate data analysis using a workflow that spans low-code tools, Generative AI, […]
Presenter: Chrysoula Tsogka, Professor, Applied Mathematics, UC Merced Description: In a strongly scattering medium, waves undergo multiple scattering that is usually seen as an obstacle to imaging. Time-reversal experiments show […]
UCSC’s Center for Southeast Asian Coastal Interactions (SEACoast) and the Center for South Asian Studies invite you to join us for a Slow Seminar to discuss Iftekhar Iqbal’s The Range of the River: Asia’s Great River Systems and the Making of a Transregional World on Monday, November 16, 2026 from 3:30-5:00pm PST in Room 210, […]
Presenter: Edric Tam, Warren Alpert Fellow in AI and Computational Biology, Department of Biomedical Data Science, Stanford University Description: A longstanding question in Bayesian analysis concerns the role of randomization. We introduce randomization posteriors, a class of generalized Bayesian updates obtained by averaging over an auxiliary randomization law. A particularly relevant instance assigns random weights […]
