SUMMARY:Spring Exhibitions at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences
DESCRIPTION:Visit the IAS\, UCSC’s premier art galleries\, for our spring exhibitions. On view April 10–August 16\, 2026 are three diverse and interdisciplinary shows: Libia Posada: Everything is Going Right\, the first US solo exhibition by the Colombia-based artist and medical doctor; Gina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj\, a site-specific and immersive exploration of the Haitian kreyol conception of rasanblaj; and Ronaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\, a mixed-media exhibition emerging at the intersections of Black poetics\, performance\, and visual art. \nThe IAS Galleries are open Wednesday-Sunday\, 12 pm – 5 pm. Admission is free to the public. \nLibia Posada: Everything is Going Right\nLibia Posada’s first solo exhibition in the United States features installations\, sculptures\, and drawings meticulously constructed from surgical instruments\, gauze bandages\, crutches\, used books\, and domestic picture frames. The new and existing works in the exhibition powerfully stitch together the personal\, social\, and political disorders and afflictions that currently trouble the world\, from the wars that resonate across the globe to the violences of aging in US prisons.  \nGina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj: Origins & Disentanglements\nThe internationally-lauded work of humanities professor Gina Athena Ulysse is on view as a premier Faculty Spotlight Exhibition. The site-specific installation\, produced in community from things collected\, found\, purchased and donated\, centers on the Haitian concept of rasanblaj\, a form of assembly and collage that transcends the formal use of materials to draw together people\, spirits\, and ideas.  \nRonaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\nCollage is both a material practice and a structural interrogation in the Faculty Spotlight Exhibition artworks by literature professor Ronaldo V. Wilson. In video\, painting\, and installation\, layers and folds conceal and reveal\, delving into the experience\, both bodily and emotive\, of living in times of violence.  \n

SUMMARY:Visualizing Abolition Screening Series: Beyond Access
DESCRIPTION:On view in the IAS Screening Room is a selection of short films curated by Visualizing Abolition Visiting Faculty Fellow Dr. Pooja Rangan. \nPrisons deny and censor the access of those trapped inside them—to information\, to intimacy\, to community\, to meaningful work\, to nourishment of all kinds\, and perhaps most cruelly\, to care. This program assembles a series of films\, including works by filmmakers incarcerated in California as well as others without that lived experience. Together\, these works confront the debilitating impacts of these restrictions and reveal how the disabling logic of the prison is extended to other institutional spaces (the hospital\, the university)\, turning access into a scarce commodity by enclosing what should be held in common. Questioning the carceral and state-sponsored productions of disability and accessibility\, the short films together reveal the courage of people working despite limitations to produce collective access for one another\, described simply and beautifully by disability justice activist Leah-Lakshmi Piepzna Samarasinha as “revolutionary love without charity.” \nThanh Tran\nDying in Prison\, 2022\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nCarolyn Lazard\nPre-Existing Condition\, 2019\nHD video (color\, sound)\, 6 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist and Trautwein Herleth3 \nAnthony Alejandrez\nAnother Rainy Day\, 2023\nPhone video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nJordan Lord\nAfter…After… (Access)\, 2018\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 16 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nRahsaan “New York” Thomas\nFriendly Signs\, 2023\nVideo (color\, sound) 21 minutes\nCourtesy of Tommy Wickerd\, Empowerment Ave & System Impact Media

SUMMARY:Visualizing Abolition Screening Series: Beyond Access
DESCRIPTION:On view in the IAS Screening Room is a selection of short films curated by Visualizing Abolition Visiting Faculty Fellow Dr. Pooja Rangan. \nPrisons deny and censor the access of those trapped inside them—to information\, to intimacy\, to community\, to meaningful work\, to nourishment of all kinds\, and perhaps most cruelly\, to care. This program assembles a series of films\, including works by filmmakers incarcerated in California as well as others without that lived experience. Together\, these works confront the debilitating impacts of these restrictions and reveal how the disabling logic of the prison is extended to other institutional spaces (the hospital\, the university)\, turning access into a scarce commodity by enclosing what should be held in common. Questioning the carceral and state-sponsored productions of disability and accessibility\, the short films together reveal the courage of people working despite limitations to produce collective access for one another\, described simply and beautifully by disability justice activist Leah-Lakshmi Piepzna Samarasinha as “revolutionary love without charity.” \nThanh Tran\nDying in Prison\, 2022\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nCarolyn Lazard\nPre-Existing Condition\, 2019\nHD video (color\, sound)\, 6 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist and Trautwein Herleth3 \nAnthony Alejandrez\nAnother Rainy Day\, 2023\nPhone video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nJordan Lord\nAfter…After… (Access)\, 2018\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 16 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nRahsaan “New York” Thomas\nFriendly Signs\, 2023\nVideo (color\, sound) 21 minutes\nCourtesy of Tommy Wickerd\, Empowerment Ave & System Impact Media

SUMMARY:Spring Exhibitions at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences
DESCRIPTION:Visit the IAS\, UCSC’s premier art galleries\, for our spring exhibitions. On view April 10–August 16\, 2026 are three diverse and interdisciplinary shows: Libia Posada: Everything is Going Right\, the first US solo exhibition by the Colombia-based artist and medical doctor; Gina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj\, a site-specific and immersive exploration of the Haitian kreyol conception of rasanblaj; and Ronaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\, a mixed-media exhibition emerging at the intersections of Black poetics\, performance\, and visual art. \nThe IAS Galleries are open Wednesday-Sunday\, 12 pm – 5 pm. Admission is free to the public. \nLibia Posada: Everything is Going Right\nLibia Posada’s first solo exhibition in the United States features installations\, sculptures\, and drawings meticulously constructed from surgical instruments\, gauze bandages\, crutches\, used books\, and domestic picture frames. The new and existing works in the exhibition powerfully stitch together the personal\, social\, and political disorders and afflictions that currently trouble the world\, from the wars that resonate across the globe to the violences of aging in US prisons.  \nGina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj: Origins & Disentanglements\nThe internationally-lauded work of humanities professor Gina Athena Ulysse is on view as a premier Faculty Spotlight Exhibition. The site-specific installation\, produced in community from things collected\, found\, purchased and donated\, centers on the Haitian concept of rasanblaj\, a form of assembly and collage that transcends the formal use of materials to draw together people\, spirits\, and ideas.  \nRonaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\nCollage is both a material practice and a structural interrogation in the Faculty Spotlight Exhibition artworks by literature professor Ronaldo V. Wilson. In video\, painting\, and installation\, layers and folds conceal and reveal\, delving into the experience\, both bodily and emotive\, of living in times of violence.  \n

DESCRIPTION:Visit the IAS\, UCSC’s premier art galleries\, for our spring exhibitions. On view April 10–August 16\, 2026 are three diverse and interdisciplinary shows: Libia Posada: Everything is Going Right\, the first US solo exhibition by the Colombia-based artist and medical doctor; Gina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj\, a site-specific and immersive exploration of the Haitian kreyol conception of rasanblaj; and Ronaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\, a mixed-media exhibition emerging at the intersections of Black poetics\, performance\, and visual art. \nThe IAS Galleries are open Wednesday-Sunday\, 12 pm – 5 pm. Admission is free to the public. \nLibia Posada: Everything is Going Right\nLibia Posada’s first solo exhibition in the United States features installations\, sculptures\, and drawings meticulously constructed from surgical instruments\, gauze bandages\, crutches\, used books\, and domestic picture frames. The new and existing works in the exhibition powerfully stitch together the personal\, social\, and political disorders and afflictions that currently trouble the world\, from the wars that resonate across the globe to the violences of aging in US prisons.  \nGina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj: Origins & Disentanglements\nThe internationally-lauded work of humanities professor Gina Athena Ulysse is on view as a premier Faculty Spotlight Exhibition. The site-specific installation\, produced in community from things collected\, found\, purchased and donated\, centers on the Haitian concept of rasanblaj\, a form of assembly and collage that transcends the formal use of materials to draw together people\, spirits\, and ideas.  \nRonaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\nCollage is both a material practice and a structural interrogation in the Faculty Spotlight Exhibition artworks by literature professor Ronaldo V. Wilson. In video\, painting\, and installation\, layers and folds conceal and reveal\, delving into the experience\, both bodily and emotive\, of living in times of violence.  \n

SUMMARY:Visualizing Abolition Screening Series: Beyond Access
DESCRIPTION:On view in the IAS Screening Room is a selection of short films curated by Visualizing Abolition Visiting Faculty Fellow Dr. Pooja Rangan. \nPrisons deny and censor the access of those trapped inside them—to information\, to intimacy\, to community\, to meaningful work\, to nourishment of all kinds\, and perhaps most cruelly\, to care. This program assembles a series of films\, including works by filmmakers incarcerated in California as well as others without that lived experience. Together\, these works confront the debilitating impacts of these restrictions and reveal how the disabling logic of the prison is extended to other institutional spaces (the hospital\, the university)\, turning access into a scarce commodity by enclosing what should be held in common. Questioning the carceral and state-sponsored productions of disability and accessibility\, the short films together reveal the courage of people working despite limitations to produce collective access for one another\, described simply and beautifully by disability justice activist Leah-Lakshmi Piepzna Samarasinha as “revolutionary love without charity.” \nThanh Tran\nDying in Prison\, 2022\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nCarolyn Lazard\nPre-Existing Condition\, 2019\nHD video (color\, sound)\, 6 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist and Trautwein Herleth3 \nAnthony Alejandrez\nAnother Rainy Day\, 2023\nPhone video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nJordan Lord\nAfter…After… (Access)\, 2018\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 16 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nRahsaan “New York” Thomas\nFriendly Signs\, 2023\nVideo (color\, sound) 21 minutes\nCourtesy of Tommy Wickerd\, Empowerment Ave & System Impact Media

SUMMARY:Carrión\, H. (CSE) - Deep Learning Algorithms for Medical Image Representation Learning and Understanding
DESCRIPTION:AI-assisted clinical decisions in medicine\, and particularly in dermatology\, demand fine-grained understanding across diverse skin tones\, body sites\, and disease types\, yet expert-annotated datasets are scarce\, demographically imbalanced\, and almost devoid of rare presentations. This dissertation develops four deep learning systems for this low-label\, low-coverage regime. We introduce HealNet\, which learns wound healing stages from longitudinal photographs without any human labels\, reaching 90.6% downstream stage-classification accuracy on a small longitudinal cohort. The Fair\, Efficient\, and Diverse Diffusion (FEDD) model then leverages powerful diffusion-model embeddings to build a skin-tone-fair\, data-efficient classifier for skin lesions\, matching or exceeding state-of-the-art performance while using only 5-20% of available labels and contributing explicit skin-tone-stratified fairness evaluation of the work. Next\, Controllable Generation of Diverse Dermatological Imagery (cgDDI) re-tasks this diffusion model to controllably synthesize skin-tone-balanced dermatological imagery\, growing a small biopsy-confirmed dataset by over 400x and reaching state-of-the-art 90.9% accuracy and improved fairness in malignancy classification\, with a +13.9% cross-dataset gain on the Fitzpatrick17k benchmark. Finally\, we introduce D-Synth and DermDepth: a synthetic dermoscopic dataset with pixel-perfect 3D ground truth and a metric-scale foundation model that closes the loop into 3D dermatology\, correcting metric scale error from over 16x to under 1.1x on real dermoscopic data and enabling single-photograph measurement of lesion reconstruction: size\, area\, and volume without specialized hardware. All data\, code\, and models are released openly to support reproducibility and ongoing fairness research. \nEvent Host: Héctor Carrión\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Computer Science & Engineering \nAdvisor: Narges Norouzi \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/96678782408?pwd=71f0ObEnUMNgkZ9NYnpbFLMlg1Pdm0.1 \nPasscode: 0FMVtz

SUMMARY:Levine\, R. (CSE) - Validating GPU Memory Consistency and Safety at Scale
DESCRIPTION:Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) have become essential platforms for parallel computing\, supporting applications far beyond graphics. Central to GPU programming models is its memory consistency specification (MCS)\, which defines the semantics of concurrent shared-memory operations and interacts with other language features to determine security guarantees such as memory safety. Understanding whether implementations conform to an MCS\, and whether the MCS provides a sound abstraction of real hardware\, is essential for reasoning about GPU programs and validating implementations. \nThis thesis develops techniques and large-scale studies for validating GPU memory consistency and memory safety. First\, it introduces MC Mutants\, a mutation testing methodology that systematically evaluates GPU MCS test environments. Applied to WebGPU\, MC Mutants generates a suite of conformance tests and uncovers two implementation bugs. Next\, it presents GPUHarbor\, a browser- and Android-based framework for large-scale testing across commodity GPUs. GPUHarbor enables a study of 106 GPUs from seven vendors\, reveals two previously unknown memory consistency bugs\, and provides new insights into GPU behavior that inform subsequent architectural and security studies. Finally\, this thesis presents SafeRace\, a collection of security assessments and specification proposals for preserving WebGPU memory safety in the presence of data races. Evaluated across dozens of GPUs and 21 WebGPU compilation stacks\, SafeRace identifies vulnerabilities in multiple GPU implementations\, including one assigned a CVE\, and proposes a validated path toward stronger memory safety guarantees in WebGPU. \nEvent Host: Reese Levine\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Computer Science & Engineering \nAdvisor: Tyler Sorensen \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/94641390195?pwd=RWXp9aprCMqmaAo8nq7oKwqTt02zwN.1 \nPasscode: 628349
