SUMMARY:Road Trip! Light in the American West\, from Baja to the Yukon
DESCRIPTION:The photographs in this exhibition\, made between 2004 and 2025\, span across the American West from the Baja California Peninsula in Mexico to The Yukon territory in Canada. Paul Schoellhamer’s (Cowell ‘69) color photographs invite us to travel with him and reflect on our relationship to land\, the light that shapes it\, and the freedom – contested but essential – to move across it. \nThe exhibition draws on voices across time and perspective that frame the American landscape as more than a stage for beauty and awe. For Chief Satanta of the Kiowa Nation\, to roam the land freely was life itself. For N. Scott Momaday\, land must be “believed to be seen.” For Eliot Porter\, light and reflection imparted magic to Glen Canyon’s waters. For Wallace Stegner\, saving natural places meant saving fragments of our collective sanity. For Brook M. Thompson\, the Klamath River is recognized with personhood. Alongside these perspectives\, Paul’s images press us to see public land not as scenery to extract or aestheticize\, but as sustenance and history. Land is alive and contested. To see closely is not to linger on a romanticized vision of the American landscape\, but to reckon with responsibility: how we safeguard access\, how we imagine “wildness\,” and how we hold space for futures beyond our own. For Paul\, this exhibition is a call for students to encounter land and light firsthand and let those encounters be their teachers. \nOpening Reception\nOctober 4\, 2025\n1-4pm \n—– \nJoin us every Friday for Art Fridays.\nNo experience necessary. Supplies and snacks provided. \n\nSep 26 Snail Mail/Postcards\nOct 3 Souvenir Keychains\nOct 10 Stamp Magnets\nOct 17 Cyanotype Totebags/Pouches/Pencil cases\nOct 24 Candy Around The World Linocuts\nOct 31 Abstract Felt Collages\nNov 7 Phone Photos/Buttons\nNov 14 Travel Related Patches With Upcycled Materials\nNov 21 Thanksgiving Break! No Art Friday\nNov 28 Unexpected Landscape Surrealist Collage\n\nPlease note that the date and the project is subject to change.

SUMMARY:Field School Workshop: Why and how to get your first fieldwork exposure
DESCRIPTION:Please join Anthropology’s Field School Workshop: Why and how to get your first fieldwork exposure on Wednesday\, November 19th\, from 12-1pm in 261\, Social Sciences 1\, hosted by Prof. Vicky Oelze and Anthropology majors Annie Bleveans\, Lina Pesso\, and Jamie Sorensen. \nThe main purpose of attending a field school in archaeology\, biological anthropology\, paleoanthropology or primatology is to gain hands-on experience in the basic field methods of these disciplines\, such as survey and excavation techniques\, observational data and sample collection and data analysis\, and usually involves several weeks of institutionally organized field work under the guidance of faculty and other experts. \nAre you wondering:\nHow do I pick the right school and how do I apply?\nWhat is field school like and is it really the right thing for me? \nThen please join our conversation\, in which we will provide rich resources on how to find and select field schools and also field volunteering opportunities. We will share our very own field school experiences and what we learned. Finally\, there will be plenty of time to address questions from the student audience. \nRefreshments (pizza) will be served.

SUMMARY:CSE Colloquium - Flux: Refinement Types for Verified Rust Systems
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Ranjit Jhala\, UCSD\n\nAbstract: Rust has risen as a language of choice for new systems code — from OS kernels to hypervisors\, firmware and run-times — as it is memory safe and provides the sort of abstractions needed for efficient low-level systems implementation. We present Flux\, a refinement type checker for Rust that shows how logical refinements can work in tandem with Rust’s ownership mechanisms to yield ergonomic type-based verification of low-level systems code. We then present a case study showing how Flux was used to formally verify process isolation in Tock: a microcontroller OS used in security-critical systems like the Google Security Chip (GSC) and Microsoft’s Pluton security processor. Our verification effort unearthed multiple subtle bugs that broke isolation\, allowing malicious applications to compromise the OS to potentially steal sensitive data or brick or take control of the OS. We describe how Flux helped design and implement a new granular process abstraction that is both simpler\, more efficient\, and yields formally verified security guarantees.\n\nBio:\nRanjit Jhala is a professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of California\, San Diego. He works on algorithms and tools that help engineer reliable computer systems. His work draws from and contributes to the areas of Model Checking\, Program Analysis\, and Automated Deduction\, and Type Systems. He helped create several influential and award winning systems including the BLAST software model checker and Liquid Types\, received ACM SIGPLAN’s Robin Milner Young Researcher Award\, and is a Fellow of the ACM.\n\nHosted by: Professor Mohsen Lesani\n\nLocation: Engineering 2\, Room E2-180\n*Refreshments such as coffee and pastries will be provided.\n\nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93445911992?pwd=YkJ2TQtF79h0PcNXbEcpZLbpK0coiY.1

SUMMARY:Corporations at Climate Crossroads: Book Talk with Lily Hsueh
DESCRIPTION:With climate risks growing\, climate action facing political headwinds in many countries\, and international cooperation increasingly challenged\, Lily Hsueh’s Corporations at Climate Crossroads illuminates how and under what conditions the world’s largest corporations have taken proactive action on climate change during the years leading up to and after the Paris Agreement. \nDrawing on insights from economics\, political science\, and management\, the author uncovers how corporations and their leaders are key players in a nested structure of climate change governance. Hsueh shows that corporate leaders’ climate actions are shaped by bottom-up and top-down institutions and incentives involving firm\, regulatory\, and global governance. To navigate uncertainty\, corporate responses to the climate challenge are therefore an interplay of internal firm leadership\, complementary capabilities in adjacent areas\, and strategic and proactive engagement with regulatory process and global governance. Sophisticated large-N statistical analyses of global businesses’ climate mitigation and performance from 2011 to 2020 and illustrative company case studies substantiate the demand for\, and supply of\, global businesses’ climate mitigation\, across sectors\, and in developed and developing countries. \nPlease join us for this book talk in-person at the Interdisciplinary Sciences Building (ISB 102). Open to all. \nJoin online at: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/98816465544?pwd=Li4HOKSoaal6PCIJcyG5hBRl60hHfW.1 \nMeeting ID: 988 1646 5544\nPasscode: 860374 \nPreceded by a panel “The Role of Corporations in a+3ºC World” to be held on Zoom at 2 p.m. on November 18. \nMeeting ID: 684 546 2150\nPasscode: Karoli\nSponsored by \nInstitute for Social Transformation and Earth Futures Institute \nAbout the author: Dr. Lily Hsueh\, PhD \nLily Hsueh is Associate Professor of Economics and Public Policy at Arizona State University\, where she is also a Senior Global Futures Scientist at the ASU Julie Ann Wrigley Global Futures Laboratory. She is an affiliate scholar at the Stanford Woods \nInstitute for the Environment.

SUMMARY:Macroeconomics & International Finance Seminar Series Presents: Yuriy Gorodnichenko
DESCRIPTION:Macroeconomics and International Finance Seminar\nDate: Tuesday\, November 18\, 2025\nTime: 1:40-3:00 p.m.\nLocation: E2-499\n\n \n\nSpeaker: Yuriy Gorodnichenko\nTitle: Quantedge Presidential Professor of Economics\nAffiliation: UC Berkeley\nHost: Pascal Michaillat\n \nSeminar title:  How costly are business cycle volatility and inflation? A Vox Populi approach\n \nABSTRACT:  Using surveys of households across thirteen countries\, we study how much individuals would be willing to pay to eliminate business cycles. These direct estimates are much higher than traditional measures following Lucas (2003): on average\, households would be prepared to sacrifice around 5-6% of their lifetime consumption eliminate business cycle fluctuations. A similar result holds for inflation: to bring inflation to their desired rate\, individuals would be willing to sacrifice around 5% of their consumption. Willingness to pay to eliminate business cycles and inflation is generally higher for those whose consumption is more pro-cyclical\, those who are more uncertain about the economic outlook\, and those who live in countries with greater historical volatility.

SUMMARY:Road Trip! Light in the American West\, from Baja to the Yukon
DESCRIPTION:The photographs in this exhibition\, made between 2004 and 2025\, span across the American West from the Baja California Peninsula in Mexico to The Yukon territory in Canada. Paul Schoellhamer’s (Cowell ‘69) color photographs invite us to travel with him and reflect on our relationship to land\, the light that shapes it\, and the freedom – contested but essential – to move across it. \nThe exhibition draws on voices across time and perspective that frame the American landscape as more than a stage for beauty and awe. For Chief Satanta of the Kiowa Nation\, to roam the land freely was life itself. For N. Scott Momaday\, land must be “believed to be seen.” For Eliot Porter\, light and reflection imparted magic to Glen Canyon’s waters. For Wallace Stegner\, saving natural places meant saving fragments of our collective sanity. For Brook M. Thompson\, the Klamath River is recognized with personhood. Alongside these perspectives\, Paul’s images press us to see public land not as scenery to extract or aestheticize\, but as sustenance and history. Land is alive and contested. To see closely is not to linger on a romanticized vision of the American landscape\, but to reckon with responsibility: how we safeguard access\, how we imagine “wildness\,” and how we hold space for futures beyond our own. For Paul\, this exhibition is a call for students to encounter land and light firsthand and let those encounters be their teachers. \nOpening Reception\nOctober 4\, 2025\n1-4pm \n—– \nJoin us every Friday for Art Fridays.\nNo experience necessary. Supplies and snacks provided. \n\nSep 26 Snail Mail/Postcards\nOct 3 Souvenir Keychains\nOct 10 Stamp Magnets\nOct 17 Cyanotype Totebags/Pouches/Pencil cases\nOct 24 Candy Around The World Linocuts\nOct 31 Abstract Felt Collages\nNov 7 Phone Photos/Buttons\nNov 14 Travel Related Patches With Upcycled Materials\nNov 21 Thanksgiving Break!

SUMMARY:Statistics Seminar: Beyond the Average Treatment Effect: Causal Mediation Methods for Understanding Intervention Mechanisms
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Hanna Kim\, Assistant Professor\, Psychology Department\, UCSC \nDescription: Understanding how an intervention works is a central question in behavioral and social research\, following the demonstration of its overall effect. Traditional mediation analysis techniques often assume a homogeneous mechanism of effects\, overlooking both validity concerns and subgroup variation in causal pathways. In this talk\, I present a series of developments in causal mediation methods aimed at identifying and estimating natural direct and indirect effects\, addressing challenges such as unobserved confounding and heterogeneity across subpopulations. I illustrate these approaches using data from early childhood education programs and online course participation\, showing how causal mediation analysis can reveal diverse mechanisms of change. The talk concludes with current directions for integrating mixture modeling and clustered data analysis with causal inference to enhance both robustness and interpretability at the interface of statistics and applied research. \nBio: Hanna Kim is an Assistant Professor of Quantitative Psychology at the University of California\, Santa Cruz. Her research centers on advancing causal inference and mediation methods to investigate how educational programs influence child development and how effects differ across subpopulations. She also integrates latent variable modeling with dyadic data analysis to study interpersonal dynamics. Her work bridges psychology and statistics to address methodological challenges in applied research\, with publications in Psychological Methods\, Cancer Epidemiology\, Biomarkers & Prevention\, Journal of Substance Use and Addiction Treatment\, and the Asian Journal of Education. \n\n\n\n\n\nHosted by: Professor Paul Parker

SUMMARY:AM Seminar: Dynamo Action Inside the Giant Planets
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Paula Wulff\, UCLA \nDescription: Our solar system hosts six unique planetary magnetic fields. Intrinsic magnetic fields are generated deep inside planets by dynamo action. This process requires regions of electrically conducting material and energy sources to maintain the dynamo. Thus\, we can learn about the deep interiors of planets\, including their structures and dynamics\, by investigating their magnetic fields. In this talk\, I’ll explore some of the interesting questions and possible answers about planetary interiors that have come from studies of planetary magnetism\, in particular through 3-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations. \nBio: Paula Wulff completed her PhD with Uli Christensen at the Max-Planck-Institute for Solar System Science\, in Goettingen\, Germany\, after her undergrad at Cambridge (UK). While working with Uli\, she studied zonal flows on Gas Giants\, in particular on Jupiter. She used the gravity measurements made by Juno to infer their depth\, and numerical modelling to investigate their truncation mechanism at depth. After her PhD\, she moved to California to work with Hao Cao and Jon Aurnou at UCLA’s EPSS department. During the postdoc she has continued to work on 3-D MHD modelling to study the dynamo mechanisms in the interiors of various planets in our solar system. \nHosted by: Professor Julie Simons

SUMMARY:CM Seminar: "Playful Design to Empower Climate Adaptation - What are we missing for real-life impact?"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Linda Hirsch \n  \nDescription: “Games and playful interventions have been researched to increase awareness of climate change impacts and educate about mitigation and adaptation measures. However\, besides increased awareness\, what real-life impact and adapted behaviors can we actually observe from such interventions? In this talk\, I will reflect on the differences between short-term and long-term community empowerment through playful interventions and discuss three outstanding research directions for designing real-life climate adaptation.” \nBio: Linda Hirsch is a postdoctoral researcher at Computational Media\, UCSC\, under the supervision of Katherine Isbister. She holds a magna cum laude doctoral degree in Media Informatics from LMU Munich\, Germany. Her research focuses on exploring\, conceptualizing\, and creating meaningful human-environment interactions to strengthen communities toward increased climate resilience. Linda Hirsch has been an elected executive committee member of the German group “Be-greifbare Interaktion” since 2021\, an expert research group within the German Society of Information Technology regarding topics for tangible and embedded interfaces.  \n  \nHosted by: Professor Katherine Isbister \nWhen: Monday\, November 17\, 2025 from 12:30PM to 1:30PM \nLocation:  \nIN-PERSON @ UCSC Main Campus\, E2-280. \nViewing room @ SVC 3212.  \nLUNCH WILL BE PROVIDED AT BOTH LOCATIONS!

To see closely is not to linger on a romanticized vision of the American landscape\, but to reckon with responsibility: how we safeguard access\, how we imagine “wildness\,” and how we hold space for futures beyond our own. For Paul\, this exhibition is a call for students to encounter land and light firsthand and let those encounters be their teachers. \nOpening Reception\nOctober 4\, 2025\n1-4pm \n—– \nJoin us every Friday for Art Fridays.\nNo experience necessary.

SUMMARY:ECE 290 Seminar: Low-Power and Miniaturized Medical Electronics for in vivo Localization and Tracking
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Saransh Sharma\, Postdoctoral Scholar\, MIT \nDescription: Accurate in vivo localization of medical devices is central to applications ranging from ingestible pills in the GI tract to endovascular and minimally invasive procedures. However\, current clinical methods rely on endoscopy or repeated ionizing imaging (CT/X-ray)\, and are poorly suited for continuous or out-of-hospital use. In this talk\, I will present a radiation-free platform for high-precision localization of wireless miniaturized devices in vivo\, using engineered magnetic field gradients. We design battery-less ingestible microdevices that measure and transmit their local magnetic field\, while planar coils generate monotonically varying fields in X\, Y\, and Z. This architecture uniquely encodes spatial position and achieves <100 μm 3D accuracy—to our knowledge\, the highest reported. We then translate this to in vivo large-animal studies to localize ingestible devices in the GI tract in real time with mm-scale resolution\, without radiation or hospital-grade imaging. This enables continuous monitoring relevant to constipation\, incontinence\, motility disorders\, medication adherence\, and quantitative GI transit-time. Next\, I will show how this platform generalizes to surgical navigation. By embedding the same localization architecture into catheters and guidewires\, we can track device position without fluoroscopy\, offering a pathway toward image-free vascular navigation and minimally invasive interventions. Finally\, to further shrink devices and power\, I developed a monolithic 3D magnetic sensor in 65 nm CMOS (4 mm²\, 14.8 μW\, <10 μT_rms noise). This fully CMOS-compatible architecture enables high-sensitivity magnetic sensing at μW power\, and can serve as the core for future miniaturized\, radiation-free localization systems. \nBio: Dr. Saransh Sharma received the B.Tech. degree in Electronics and Electrical Communication Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT)\, Kharagpur\, India\, in 2017\, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech)\, Pasadena\, CA\, USA\, in 2018 and 2023\, respectively. He is currently a postdoctoral research scholar at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)\, Cambridge\, USA\, working on low-power analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits and system design for bio-medical applications. Dr. Sharma was a recipient of the Wilts Prize and the Demetriades-Tsafka-Kokkalis Award for outstanding Ph.D. thesis in Electrical Engineering\, Biotechnology and related fields at Caltech\, Lewis Winner Award for outstanding paper at ISSCC 2024\, Best Student Paper Award at CICC 2025\, Charles Lee Powell Fellowship at Caltech\, and Excellence in Mentorship Award at Caltech for mentoring undergraduate and graduate students. \nHosted by: Professor Soumya Bose\, ECE Department \nZoom Link: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/97975378707?pwd=ljcgaCfhMmhZ88Vt5dqQUBVQRjehOx.1
