We are proud to be ... bee-friendly! Pollinators welcome here🐝

[University of California @UofCalifornia]

Did you hear the buzz? @UCSanDiego recently became a Bee Campus USA member, part of a national program created to support pollinating organisms, boost the abundance of native plant species and reduce pesticide use 🐝 https://t.co/Y9mpxHC2vc

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

Among @UofCalifornia's hidden gems is the Natural Reserve System, a library of ecosystems available to researchers, scientists & students. @UCSanDiego oversees 4 of these precious habitats. Feb. 3 come explore one of them. Free. Registration required: https://t.co/skcDV8GiAc!

.@UCSanDiego received a $12.85M grant to develop a Naval Innovation, Science and Engineering Center program funded by @USNavyResearch. Research will focus on autonomous naval platforms; environmental-platform modeling; and
materials and energy resilience: https://t.co/uprnTW0JXQ

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

Congratulations Joshua Pelz of LIMBER Prosthetics and Orthotics, an innovation that originated @UCSDJacobs and was bolstered by @UCSDbasement.

Pelz is among 10 life science trailblazers under 40yo receiving the Life Science Catalyst Award from @biocom this year

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

Preparing the next generation to lead in research and technology cannot begin too soon.

[SRS @ UCSD @SallyRideSci]

Kids in grade 3-5 will build autonomous robots in #free Sally Ride Science workshop “LEGO Mindstorms Robotics.” The workshop is coming to San Ysidro Library Nov. 14 from #LibraryNExT, a partnership of @SDPublicLibrary and @UCSDExtStudies. https://t.co/0QHPUX3tHS #STEM

Congratulations on earning a great distinction as you advance scientific discovery, Asst. Prof. Jazz Dickinson!

She's the first faculty member @UCSanDiego selected for the fellowship.

[UCSD BioSciences @ucsdbiosciences]

Assist Prof Jazz Dickinson has been selected as a 2023 Moore Inventor Fellow. The fellowship supports scientist-inventors who create new tools and technologies with high potential to accelerate progress in the foundation’s interest areas. https://t.co/zhiM72UoIw #mooreinventors

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

When @EFRCQ isn't laying down quantum-material foundation for an energy-efficient, fault-tolerant computer inspired by the brain ... apparently, they are pretty good poets.

"Math is an incredibly beautiful way to understand the world," explains Taylor McKie of @Scripps_Ocean in this short, novice-friendly video segment on how weather and climate work below the waves from her research @UCSanDiego.

[SRS @ UCSD @SallyRideSci]

Taylor McKie is a PhD student at @Scripps_Ocean who studies the physics of ocean water and how its movement drives climate and weather patterns. She explains her work in “The Math of Water,” the latest episode of the Wavelengths video series: https://t.co/MU2Nfx25jn @TinyBeaker

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

CA CARES is part of a @CAgovernor & @UofCalifornia initiative to fund startups addressing climate change. The new initiative will fund $50K grants for @UCSanDiego faculty. Two other grant opportunities are open to students & community members. Read more: https://t.co/3aapPwis6I

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

Last year, @UCSanDiego spent $1.76B from research grants, gifts and cooperative agreements, up from $1.64B the previous year — a more than 6 percent increase. Read about some of the research and innovation taking place across campus: https://t.co/KqQj9Jgcs5

[UCSD Engineering @UCSDJacobs]

Surf’s Up! Limber Prosthetics and Orthotics made it possible for Jonah Villamil to get back on a surfboard for the 1st time in 3 years. @UCSanDiego engineering alumni Joshua Pelz & Luca De Vivo Nicoloso, along w/Herb Barrack, are positively impacting local and global communities.

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

Our diverse @UCSanDiego research community is one of the reasons that we have one of the strongest programs in the country. These scientists are just a few examples of what makes our community strong #SanDiegoPride

The goals of a meritocracy are thwarted when affordability cuts the playing field.

[University of California @UofCalifornia]

Today's SCOTUS decision rejecting President Biden's #StudentLoan relief plan is disheartening. College affordability is a top priority at UC. Here's what we're doing to help students access a UC education ⬇️

[University of California @UofCalifornia]

Today’s SCOTUS ruling barring consideration of race in college admissions is disappointing. UC has worked to address inequity in #HigherEd without #AffirmativeAction for decades and we remain committed and prepared to support our peer institutions in expanding student diversity.

[UC San Diego Research and Innovation @ResearchUCSD]

Congrats to the team at @UCSanDiego leading one of nine Centers for Excellence in the country. The continued funding from @ENERGY is a huge endorsement for the training, expertise and extraordinary research taking place. Read all about it in the link below ⬇️

[UCSD Engineering @UCSDJacobs]

The Center for Matter Under Extreme Conditions at UC San Diego received $12.5 million in funding from the U.S. Department of @ENERGY. CMEC has made new discoveries as well as trained scientists nationally. https://t.co/b7KqkNAQ4Q
