From healthcare innovation to online communication, the associate professor's research in human-computer interaction aims to create effective, user-friendly tools that address complex societal challenges.
Atrial fibrillation, or AFib, is an irregular and often rapid heart rhythm, also known as an arrhythmia. AFib is the most common type of heart arrhythmia and predisposes patients to an increased risk of stroke. It has a significant global impact — affecting nearly 40 million individuals worldwide and over 6 million in the United States.
Matt Bishop, a professor of computer science at UC Davis and an expert in cybersecurity, answers a crucial question for the 2024 presidential election in a feature in UC Davis Magazine.
The UC Davis College of Engineering has hired five new faculty members to join the Department of Computer Science this fall. The assistant professors will investigate increasing memory and energy efficiency in software, improving security and system performance and how large foundational models can be used in fields like psychology and agriculture.
Professor Emeritus of Computer Science and Mathematics Peter Linz was instrumental in the department's founding and retired from UC Davis as department chair in 1994.
A $1.85 million grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation connects UC Davis researchers with peers from five other UCs to build a system-wide network of open source program offices to better educate and sustain the UC open source software community.
A team of UC Davis computer science students won the Education and Educational Tools Award at this year's Big Bang! Business Competition with CourseAssist AI, a customizable chatbot designed to support and retain students in STEM classes.
With new internet privacy regulations demanding compliance from data systems, computer science researchers from UC Davis and UC Irvine have partnered with a UC Davis law professor to translate the regulations into technical language. The next step to protecting people's privacy is to build a system that ensures existing systems can comply.
UC Davis helped take computer science graduating senior Adityaa Ravi’s early interest in robots and STEM to the next level, thanks to inspiring faculty and rewarding research projects.
From taking midterms on buses to looking up to fellow teammates and coding gurus, third-year undergraduate Riley Acosta talks about how he's stepping up to the plate as a computer science major and as a catcher and outfielder for the Aggie men's baseball team.
Computer science student Shyam Agarwal receives the M.S. Ghausi Medal, the College of Engineering's highest honor for a graduating senior, for his dedication to connecting others to computer science.
Computer science and engineering student Gautham Pandian is using his experience in software development and artificial intelligence to help educators grade more quickly and students learn more efficiently with a web-based app.
Authoritarian regimes exert control over the internet through transit networks that operate largely out of public view, according to a recent study by researchers in the U.S. and Germany. The work, published in PNAS Nexus, also shows how more sophisticated authoritarian regimes extend their influence by providing network access in poorer but politically similar countries.
