Please join us for a talk with Benjamin Smarr, PhD. Q & A to follow. About Benjamin Smarr | Dr. Smarr's research focuses on time series analysis in biological systems. He emphasizes practical information extraction for translational applications. His background in biological rhythms and neuroendocrinology gives him a rare perspective into the current challenges for data science and engineering on biological systems. His lab develops novel approaches to get more information out of data generated over time and within-individuals. Prof. Smarr's aim is to leverage his expertise in biological dynamics to increase precision in health algorithms, with a special focus on increasing equity of health tech efficacy over diverse populations. Dr. Smarr has received fellowships and funding from NSF, NIH, DoD, and many private partners, and his views have been featured by prominent media outlets, including BBC, Forbes, WIRED, and many others. He received his PhD from University of Washington and was a postdoc at UC Berkeley before joining the Shu Chen-Gene Lay Department of Bioengineering and the Halicioglu Data Science Institute at UCSD.

The San Diego City Council voted 6-2 Tuesday to substantially change the city’s regulation of surveillance technology. Privacy rights advocates say the changes, which were pushed by Mayor Todd Gloria’s office, water down hard-fought protections against surveillance overreach.

Meet the scientists working to better understand melanoma to prevent metastasis. Learn how new drugs are created and advanced to the clinic. Ask a melanoma oncologist about current treatment options and get an insider’s view on what’s to come. This is a unique opportunity to | • Meet and share experiences with other people affected by melanoma. • Learn how melanoma skin cancer starts and how cancer cells can become resistant to treatment. • Learn about some of the most promising approaches for new treatments. • See state-of-the-art drug screening robots. • Talk directly with survivors and a clinician. Guests will have the opportunity to mingle with cancer scientists, survivors, and research advocates during an informal evening reception featuring healthy nibbles and refreshing drinks. Guided tours will be offered throughout the event, giving attendees a behind-the-scenes look into our scientists’ varied approaches to cancer research. This open house is hosted by the Cancer Center’s Community Advisory Board. Its members strive to bridge the gap between biomedical science and the people who need it most: patients and the families and friends who love and support them.

Scientists scanned the brains of people who took psilocybin, including a member of the research team. The scans showed how the drug disrupts key networks, potentially enhancing brain plasticity.
