Machine learning endows autonomous systems to uncover underlying structures and physical laws from measured data and to leverage these models for prediction and decision-making. As the costs of data acquisition, processing, and storage decline—and sensors become increasingly widespread alongside ever-improving algorithms—artificial intelligence has attracted significant attention in research and industry. Machine-learning methods are particularly attractive […]
Breathing in the Anthropocene: Reflections on Breath, Air, and Vitality This presentation examines breathing in the present moment when humans vastly transform Earth ecosystems that impact health and well-being. Atmospheric transformations via worsened air highlight connections of breath with health. How might breath be shaped by cultural and individual experiences? Ethnographic research at the intersections […]
Collaborative virtual reality environments have the potential to greatly impact scientific progress, especially those relating to existential human problems. Within these virtual environments, scientists could view and interact with spatial data in applications as part of their sensemaking process, however, there are design challenges and barriers to development. This advancement document presents research questions related […]
Program verification has been applied in many contexts (including videogames), but the scale and complexity of the examples that have been analyzed fall short of the ability to analyze many existing games without massive computational costs. My research focuses on automatic analysis and design of one particular game: Super Metroid, with the goal of creating […]
What the Mouth Remembers is a research-creation project that explores how spoken language, especially when fragmented, mistranslated, and passed down across migration, family histories, and colonial ruptures, becomes a site of embodied memory, survival, and imaginative reconstruction. At the heart of the project is the Jeju language, not as a fixed object of preservation but […]
Presenter: Richard J Maraia, MD, Senior Investigator and Head of the Section on Molecular and Cell Biology in the Intramural Research Program, NICHD Description: The La protein is a eukaryote-ubiquitous RNA-binding protein that (in the organisms examined) stabilizes newly synthesized RNA polymerase (Pol) III transcripts by transiently protecting their 3’-ends prior to maturation as abundant […]

Topics Career growth and earning potential An overview of how CLS works with accredited college and university partners Course […]
Reconstructing ocean dynamics from observational data is fundamentally limited by the sparse, irregular, and Lagrangian nature of spatial sampling, particularly in subsurface and remote regions. This sparsity poses significant challenges for forecasting key phenomena such as eddy shedding and rogue waves. Traditional data assimilation methods and deep learning models often struggle to recover mesoscale turbulence […]
