UCI researchers contribute expertise in criminology, statistics and computer science

To give the public a sense of how social media conversations about COVID-19 are happening in real time, UCI computer scientists have developed and launched a coronavirus Twitter map. The interactive resource visualizes the spatial and temporal distribution of tweets related to the pandemic, allowing users to view the growth and transformation of social media […]

‘End-to-end’ approach generates favorable results in comparison with classical codecs

Mark Warschauer, professor of education, has been awarded a five-year, $4 million Education Innovation and Research grant by the U.S. Department of Education to improve computer science teaching practices for English learners. Project partners are the Santa Ana and San Francisco unified school districts and Chicago Public Schools. “The field of computer science has not […]

UCI researchers and collaborators have developed a “lab on a chip” platform to facilitate continuous, inexpensive, rapid and personalized drug screening. The technology is capable of evaluating the effectiveness of treatments on cancer cells without bulky readout equipment or requiring the shipment of samples to labs. The scientists’ work is the subject of a new […]

Radiation therapy is one of the most widely used cancer treatments, but a drawback of the procedure is that it can cause collateral damage to healthy tissue in proximity to cancerous growths. Identifying organs at risk via CT scans is a difficult and labor-intensive process, but UCI computer scientists and researchers from other institutions have […]
