Working with a team of researchers at the University of Michigan, the computer science undergraduate will survey her engineering peers to learn more about their mental health to help drive the national conversation about wellness in engineering.
Assistant Professor Alexander Gamero-Garrido and Ph.D. student Nishant Acharya, both of computer science, have been selected for the Internet Society’s Pulse Research Fellowship and Mentorship program. Their work aims to enhance internet resilience by analyzing disruptions to critical network hubs and improving global connectivity.
Ilias Tagkopoulos, director of the AI Institute for Next-Generation Food Systems at UC Davis, is harnessing AI to revolutionize food and health. From mapping food chemistry to optimizing sustainable production, his research aims to create smarter, healthier and more accessible nutrition for all.
From human-computer interaction studies to data privacy projects, fifth-year student Bipasha Sengupta has gained hands-on experience while guiding fellow students at UC Davis. Now, as she prepares to graduate, she reflects on how mentorship and research have shaped her journey.
UC Davis researchers Kwan-Liu Ma and Dongyu Liu aim to improve collaboration in fields like emergency management by investigating how ambiguity in data visualization affects high-stakes decision-making.
Assistant Professor of Computer Science Alexander Gamero-Garrido leads an NSF-funded project to analyze broadband connectivity at schools and libraries. The research aims to lessen the digital equity gap by mapping networks, assessing reliability, enhancing performance and prioritizing underserved communities.
If you're thinking of buying a "smart" TV for the holidays, you ought to know that your new device is constantly capturing snapshots of what's on screen and sending them back to the manufacturer — even if you are using the device as a computer monitor and not watching TV at all.
From healthcare innovation to online communication, the associate professor's research in human-computer interaction aims to create effective, user-friendly tools that address complex societal challenges.
Atrial fibrillation, or AFib, is an irregular and often rapid heart rhythm, also known as an arrhythmia. AFib is the most common type of heart arrhythmia and predisposes patients to an increased risk of stroke. It has a significant global impact — affecting nearly 40 million individuals worldwide and over 6 million in the United States.
A $1.85 million grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation connects UC Davis researchers with peers from five other UCs to build a system-wide network of open source program offices to better educate and sustain the UC open source software community.
With new internet privacy regulations demanding compliance from data systems, computer science researchers from UC Davis and UC Irvine have partnered with a UC Davis law professor to translate the regulations into technical language. The next step to protecting people's privacy is to build a system that ensures existing systems can comply.
Authoritarian regimes exert control over the internet through transit networks that operate largely out of public view, according to a recent study by researchers in the U.S. and Germany. The work, published in PNAS Nexus, also shows how more sophisticated authoritarian regimes extend their influence by providing network access in poorer but politically similar countries.
As artificial intelligence gains momentum, University of California researchers are identifying discrimination in the algorithms that are shaping our society, devising solutions, and helping build a future where computers do us less harm and more good.
As machine learning and artificial intelligence become more involved with decision-making, Professor Ian Davidson is on a quest to integrate fairness into human-AI systems.
Assistant Professor of Computer Science Maike Sonnewald weighs in on gaining information from a recent onslaught of storms to provide intel on climate change and make long-range weather forecasts.
