A UC San Diego bioengineer reveals some of the secrets behind understanding the new analytical tools and models of neuronal functions now being developed via a new book called Databasing the Brain: From Data to Knowledge. The book, co-authored by Shankar Subramaniam, chair of the Jacobs School Department of Bioengineering; and neurinformatics expert [...]
Biologists at UC San Diego working with colleagues in Europe reported in Nature that rising concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere may not lead to greater photosynthetic activity and carbon sequestration by plants as atmospheric ozone pollutants increase.

Electrical engineers at the Jacobs School are working on very high efficiency photovoltaic devices that may lead to more economical solar energy. In November 2007, UC San Diego received $885,000 from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) – part of a recent $21 million DOE investment in next generation photovoltaic technology that aims at [...]
The Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation at UC San Diego is a multidisciplinary team of scholars, students, staff, and interested parties both within and outside of the University of California, brought together by their common interest in studying international conflict and cooperation. IGCC researchers study a wide range of topics involving security, environmental, and [...]
Researchers at UC San Diego and San Diego-based General Atomics have reported an improved control method for a type of nuclear fusion technology that confines a cloud of ionized hydrogen in a doughnut-shaped machine called a tokamak.

The Breakwater Pier at the U.S. Navy Homeport Complex is a 90’ wide x 1500’ long structure with a dual function. It is a berthing facility for Navy ships, and it also serves as a breakwater for the adjacent Carrier Pier.
The pier structure is supported by 24″ hollow octagonal prestressed piles and decked with precast [...]
Hit the beach anywhere in Japan, and you are likely to see endless piles of tetrapods — enormous four-legged concrete structures intended to prevent coastal erosion. By some estimates, more than 50% of Japan’s 35,000-kilometer (22,000-mi) coastline has been altered with tetrapods and other forms of concrete. Critics, who blame the tetrapod invasion on decades [...]
Eating greasy foods may or may not clog your arteries, but one thing is for certain: grease that enters our wastewater systems from restaurants and other dining establishments will eventually clog a sewer system. With the ever-increasing number of restaurants located in North America, the need for effective removal of fats, oils and greases is [...]
BCP’s range of precast traffic islands is revolutionising the way in which these items are constructed.
Traditionally, traffic islands were formed up and poured in-situ taking (in some cases) several days to complete the project. This in turn led to extremely high labour costs with highly skilled contractors and traffic controller required on site for significant [...]
