We couldn't be more proud of Xian Mallory, a @FloridaState assistant professor in @FSUComputerSci who took home the $100,000 grand prize from @ReliaQuest! 🏆
During #FSUDiscoveryDays' “The Quest for What’s Next!” competition on Monday, Mallory pitched Sage, a startup designed to protect personal data, to a panel of judges.
Two other teams, both from @FSUartssciences, took home $50,000 each! Olmo Zavala Romero, an assistant professor in @FSUSciComp, earned additional funding for his startup Ariadne, while Xin Zhang, a professor in @StatisticsFSU, benefited his ambitions after his presentation, “Protecting the Rare Label: Error-Controlled Classification for Data Sensitivity.”

Hristo Chipilski, an assistant professor in @FSUSciComp and @DataScienceFSU, has received @NSF funding to improve nighttime thunderstorm forecasts, research that will help forecasters and communities better prepare for dangerous weather.
To learn more about how Chipilski will accurately model nighttime thunderstorms — which often depend on complex atmospheric conditions that are more difficult for weather models to predict than daytime storms — visit: https://t.co/N3CPCwXSHY.

Last Thursday, assistant professor of computational linguistics Thomas Juzek (@FSUSciComp) kicked off Research in Conversation: The @FsuModern Colloquium Series!
During his presentation, titled "What’s Left to Write? Richter’s Grey, the Machine’s Em Dash—and What Makes Us Us,” Juzek explored what it means to be human amid the rise of AI-generated work, specifically writing.

.@FloridaState researchers ➡️ Communicating the power and impact of university research and scholarship has never been more critical.
Research Development and University Communications invite faculty to participate in a workshop during #FSUDiscoveryDays where they will translate their work for the public, practice interviewing with media and learn tips and tricks for video interviews and more.
Register here ➡️ https://t.co/1RFEJ40zJY
We learned so much during @FSUSciComp doctoral candidate Mani Tyagi's recent colloquium! The talk built upon his research, which aims to improve the accuracy of how we predict the behavior of materials simulations essential to modern technology. Read more: https://t.co/ipF7Y3EVUB
.@ReliaQuest and @FloridaState are joining forces at The Quest for What's Next!
This #FSUDiscoveryDays event will see six teams compete for a grand prize of $100,000 in funding from Reliaquest to pursue innovative projects in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity.

How field trips can look when you're a student at @FloridaState... 😎
Ming Ye, a professor in @FSU_EOAS and faculty affiliate of @FSUSciComp, recently provided students in his Principles of Hydrology course the opportunity to kayak and canoe the Lake Jackson Aquatic Preserve — only a 20-minute drive from FSU.
Lake Jackson is the only freshwater lake system in Florida unaffected by engineering constructions such as dams and canals. Instead of using manmade means to manage the ecosystem, Lake Jackson periodically dries out, which spurs a self-cleansing process that hinders invasive plants and restores conditions for native fish breeding, for example.
In getting up close and personal with the lake, students learned more about watersheds and how their quality and quantity can evolve over time. The field trip was preceded by a guest lecture from @LakeJackson850's Sophie Wacongne-Speer, who spoke about the lake’s past, present and future conditions. The students' kayaks and canoes were provided by the Lake Jackson Aquatic Preserve under @FLDEPNews.

The Fall 2026 AI Seminar series, hosted by @FSUSciComp, kicked off (literally, see slide two) Aug. 28 with a talk by @FAMUFSUCOE's Christian Hubicki! 🤖
Hubicki's laboratory, the Optimal Robotics Lab, develops new and innovative ways for robots to walk — and even run — on two legs.
In addition to his role as an associate professor at @floridastateuniversity, Hubicki is a two-time contestant on "@survivorcbs," placing seventh on season 37 in 2018 and 13th on season 50 earlier this year.
