ECE 290 Seminar: Speaker – Dr. Jaeyoung Lim “Autonomous Information Gathering using Long Endurance Aerial Vehicles”
Presenter: Jaeyoung Lim, Postdoctoral Scholar at the Agile Robotics and Perception Lab at the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department, University of California, Berkeley Description: Monitoring large-scale environments is essential for natural hazard management, environmental process observation, and search and rescue operations. Yes, meaningful coverage of the target environment demands vast infrastructure and dense sensor […]
Navigating Coexistence: Mountain Lion Behavior, Outdoor Recreation, and the Challenges of Managing Multiuse Landscapes in California’s Santa Cruz Mountains
John Morgan from the UCSC Environmental Studies Department In Person Location: ISB 221 Zoom Link As outdoor recreation grows in popularity, its effects on wildlife remain poorly understood. This dissertation examines how outdoor recreational activity shapes the behavior of mountain lions (Puma concolor) in California’s Santa Cruz Mountains – a fragmented landscape where large carnivores […]
Statistics Seminar: Advancing Statistical Rigor in Single-Cell and Spatial Omics Using In Silico Control Data
Presenter: Guan’ao Yan, Assistant Professor, Michigan State University Description: Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics technologies now let us map cellular diversity and tissue organization at high resolution, but the computational methods built to analyze these data are difficult to evaluate in a rigorous, reproducible way. Two key barriers are the lack of realistic synthetic data with […]
AM Seminar: Engineering the Earth’s Climate
Presenter: Dr. Pulkit Dubey, Postdoc, UC Santa Cruz Description: Neural climate emulators such as NeuralGCM and LUCIE offer efficient, differentiable alternatives to General Circulation Models (GCMs), producing climate predictions at a fraction of the cost. While work to date has focused largely on predictive accuracy, we leverage differentiability to study control of long-horizon climatological targets. […]

Wang, Q. (STAT) – Modern Statistical Methods for Modeling Spatial and Temporal Processes
Modern scientific studies increasingly rely on complex datasets exhibiting spatial and temporal dependence, particularly in social, environmental, and climate applications. This dissertation develops statistical models and computational methods for analyzing such data, with an emphasis on capturing dependence structures, nonlinear dynamics, and uncertainty quantification. A spatial deep learning framework is developed to extend classical geostatistical […]
