Zoom Forum
We invite all faculty to provide comments and questions regarding the Academic Senate Task Force on UC Adaptation to Disruptions (UCAD) Charge, and UCAD Interim Report (July, 2025).
UCAD’s purpose was to develop response strategies that aim to uphold the teaching and education, research and discovery, and public service mission areas of the University of California in the context of disruptive federal executive orders, uncertain federal and state partnerships, and evolving shifts in the higher education landscape. The report makes interim recommendations related to four key categories:
Research Funding Assistance
Academic Personnel Evaluations During Disruptions

Her research includes the detection and characterization of exoplanets and the study of exoplanet demographics. With the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, Professor Batalha has been leading international collaborations of hundreds of scientists to investigate what these exoplanets are composed of and how they formed.
