Advanced imaging technologies are rapidly reshaping how we observe and quantify the world, from satellites to laboratory instruments, across all industries and sciences. In this talk, Ryan Barlow, CEO and Founder of GeoPulse Solutions, will explore the current state of spectral imaging systems, highlighting both their transformative capabilities and the ...
Aaron Meisner is an astrophysicist working at the intersection of image processing, participatory science, and machine learning. At Radcliffe, he will combine these techniques to search for cold worlds in the Sun’s neighborhood of our Milky Way galaxy.Register at weblink
Plastic pollution is one of the defining environmental challenges of the 21st century. Microplastics are now pervasive throughout marine ecosystems, yet the pathways by which they move from land into coastal food webs remain poorly understood. From 2023-2025, our team conducted a comprehensive regional assessment of microplastics across the river-ocean ...
This talk will share a chapter from my first book project, Cultivating Sustainable Sovereignty: Palestinian Agrarian Lives in Transnational Focus. How have Palestinian agro-ecological and food systems changed due to settler colonialism over time? How do Palestinians’ agricultural practices and relationships - their food sovereignty efforts - serve their struggles ...
We share our experience using LLMs to obtain new results in mathematics and computer science. We begin with an illustrative example from load-balancing in planet-scale cloud systems, outlining the abilities and limitations of LLMs. Next, we describe our experience with AlphaEvolve, an evolutionary language model from Google DeepMind, to establish ...
Everything we can see - stars, planets, galaxies, and even ourselves - makes up only a small fraction of the cosmos. The rest appears to be dominated by mysterious forces we cannot directly observe.In this mind-bending lecture, Stefano Profumo, Professor of Physics at the University of California, Santa Cruz, explores ...
Join us for an in-person evening about eBird and community science! Brian Sullivan will speak on the work he and the rest of the team at Cornell are finding what can be learned within the mountain of data that is collected by eBird. Our everyday observations serve the greater understanding ...
