#UCSD's
looting blue cities and states like we're conquered territory. stealing our tax money and destroying the engines of our economy.

shouldn't be lost on anyone either that many of Trump's rich buddies live in La Jolla and are at war with UCSD's expansion plans for NIMBY reasons.
Trump’s reckless agenda means massive cuts to UCSD—San Diego’s innovation engine and second-largest employer. This would devastate research, kill jobs, and hurt our entire region. I’ll fight with everything I have to stop it.
UCSD braces for possible $500M in annual cuts, shelves some building plans
Reductions on that scale would seriously hurt research and threaten jobs at the region’s second-largest employer.

Started my run on UCSD’s campus without a plan on where to go, ended up at an oceanside nature preserve. It’s truly magical to have the legs to make this sort of exploration happen whenever I travel.

New It Could Happen Here

@jamesstout.bsky.social talks to a UCSD faculty member facing disciplinary proceedings for their participation in the Gaza Solidarity Encampment about UCSD’s history, the Palestine exception to free speech, and campus organizing.

On top of kicking millions of Americans off their health insurance, the Trump Administration has also slashed federal funding for cancer research nationwide, including at UCSD's Moores Cancer Center here in San Diego. Cancer patients and their families deserve better.

Visited Legoland with kids and grandkids. It was a delight to see UCSD’s library spotlighted. #skybrarian #edusky #kidlit

Who said anything about calculus?

There were over 500 students who arrived on UCSD's campus last year who weren't fully competent in middle school level math. These students would—and do—struggle with numerical content in courses and degrees that many would consider non-quantitative.

The Trump admin’s proposed cuts would devastate UCSD, harm San Diego’s economy, stall scientific progress, and weaken America’s leadership in research and innovation.
UC San Diego, bracing for more than $200M in funding cuts, freezes faculty hiring
‘This is the biggest financial challenge in UCSD’s history,’ said Terry Gaasterland, a longtime faculty member.

In our latest episode of WIRED's Hacklab video series, UCSD's researchers talk through their discovery—which they'll present at Defcon next month—how to check if you have KARR in your car, and how to install the security update to fix its flaws if you do.

The higher pollution levels seen in parts of Los Angeles, for example, may increase mortality by between 5% to 15% on the day people are exposed, and “that doesn’t account for lagged effects,” says UCSD's Carlos Gould.

I visited UCSD’s Supercomputer Center to learn more about how they’re using advanced computing and AI to tackle real-world challenges, including supporting wildfire response and advancing health care research.

It’s critical that we harness AI to help people, not just a few tech companies.

A weird shot of a part of UCSD's Geisel library that sort of looked like an angry Transformer to me.

Wonder if Lakshmi Chilukuri (Usha Vance’s mother), who is provost of UCSD’s 6th college and a molecular biologist, had any role in this video.
This is a good explainer! But I want to be even more blunt:

You can't cure cancer in the dark.

Federal (F&A) funding is what pays to keep the lights on so that doctors and scientists can do this work.
UC San Diego scientists are tackling cancer, Alzheimer’s and more.💡Without funding, progress stalls.

Saying UCSD’s guards should attack Danny Wolf on a switch is how you tell people you haven’t watched many Michigan games this season.

Was wonderful to watch @ucsandiego men's basketball in their first March Madness. The refs definitely played a role in UCSD's loss. Talk about tipping it towards the favorite. Pathetic.
