Congratulations to UC San Diego Physics Suckjoon Jun on being named a Simons Foundation Pivot Fellow. He will work with NYU economist alberto bisin to explore the ways in which concepts in physiology and economics can inform each other. bit.ly/4fT5Dej 🦋Suckjoon Jun's lab @ Physics, UC San Diego

.@UCSDAstro professor Shelley Wright is a modern-day explorer, searching deep space for evidence of life. Learn more about her research in this profile from Jan Goldsmith / @SDUT. bit.ly/4ikY4P2 Shelley Wright


As the world celebrates Geoffrey Hinton and John Hopefield's #NobelPrize, here's a closer look at how physics research is the foundation for many of humankind's greatest technological advancements: bit.ly/4infwm5 UC San Diego Physics

Join UCSD and U.S. National Science Foundation for a hackathon using machine learning to find anomalies in one of three chosen datasets. This is a great opportunity to refine your data science skills and network with scientists! All experience levels welcome. Starts Jan. 11. bit.ly/4frCjKA


💥Congrats💥 to UC San Diego Physics prof Serra group @ UC San Diego for receiving a prestigious U.S. National Science Foundation CAREER. Mattia's work uses data-driven methods and mathematical models to study complex biological and physical systems. Check out his website to learn more about his work: mattiaserra.com

Nonribosomal peptide synthetase enzymes are essential in creating medications like penicillin. Notoriously difficult to study, UCSD Chem Biochem's Michael Burkart has developed crosslinking tools that make the enzymes easier to visualize. bit.ly/4h3ZFHr Burkart Lab at UCSD


Did you miss our story on the connection between brewing coffee☕ and understanding turbulent flows from the research of UC San Diego Physics prof Nigel Goldenfeld. @NigelGoldenfeld.bsky.social? If so check out Ars Technica's "10 Cool Science Stories We Almost Missed." bit.ly/3C7mBXq

Nitrogen is essential for cell growth and function, but must be “fixed” into a usable form. To better understand a key component of this biological process, UCSD Chem Biochem profs Akif Tezcan and Mark Herzik took a multi-pronged approach. bit.ly/4h2sMee

Diversity-generating retroelements are found in microorganism genomes and can accelerate evolution to help microorganisms adapt to changing environments. Using cryoEM, UCSD Chem Biochem's Partho Ghosh has figured out the first steps of how this happens. bit.ly/40gM5dg

What are UFOs? The answer is out there... check out this special from NOVA | PBS premiering on Jan. 22 and hear was @UCSDAstro prof Shelley Wright has to say about searching for intelligent life in the universe. bit.ly/3PosOBz Shelley Wright


Congrats💥 to @UCSDastro dept chair Alison Coil on her 2025 AAS Press Office fellowship⭐. Alison was recognized for her outstanding work, incl contributions to understanding the evolution of galaxies and the formation and evolution of supermassive black holes. bit.ly/3Wi1sRt
