- This squidbot jets around and takes pics of coral and fish: bit.ly/squidbot This squid-inspired bot was built by @BioinspiredUCSD @miketolley @ClbChrstnsn & team It carries it own power; swims untethered; and can carry sensors, such as a camera. #bionspired #biomimicry
00:00 - Stellar news: @UCSanDiego chemical engineering alumna Deniz Burnham has been selected by @NASA as one of their 10 new astronaut candidates! She's a Lt. in the @USNavy and a leader in the energy industry. Way to go, Deniz! #TritonPride🔱 sandiegouniontribune.com/news/education…
- We know who we're rooting for in the @Jeopardy College Championship! Alistair Gray is a @UCSanDiego undergraduate studying computer science and linguistics, and one of 15 students competing for $100,000. His episode airs tonight; tune in and cheer him on! nbcsandiego.com/news/local/ucs…
- Replying to @UCSDJacobsComputer science professor Ndapa Nakashole develops algorithms that enable computers to understand and generate human language, like Siri and Alexa. She is working towards natural language processing models that are able to generalize under data distribution changes.

- Our women faculty push the boundaries of science, educate the next generation of engineers and computer scientists, and drive innovation for the public good. On #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate all of their contributions to our @UCSanDiego Jacobs School community #IWD
- Engineers and physicians at @UCSanDiego developed a wearable ultrasound device that can assess both the structure and function of the human heart. The sensor, roughly the size of a postage stamp, can be worn for 24 hours and works during exercise: today.ucsd.edu/story/cardiac-… @Nature
- It's an honor to celebrate the fantastic women engineering and computer science faculty at @UCSanDiego, today and everyday. Through their research, teaching and mentorship, they're shaping the future of science and engineering. Happy #InternationalWomensDay!
- Today, we have the distinct pleasure of celebrating the lifetime of achievements of @UCSanDiego Bioengineering Professor Shu Chien, as he moves into retirement. Chien was the founding dean of @ucsdbe at UC San Diego, and a pioneering titan in the field of bioengineering.
- Join us in wishing pioneering bioengineer and @UCSanDiego Professor Shu Chien a happy 90th birthday!🎉 In addition to his groundbreaking scientific discoveries (he's in all 3 @theNASEM), he was a galvanizing force in creating our top-ranked Department of Bioengineering @ucsdbe.
00:00 - "@UCSanDiego has more engineering undergraduates than Stanford and Berkeley combined.... UCSD produced 349 entrepreneurs who founded 330 companies and raised $5.73 billion from the start of 2006 through to the end of June 2018." 💪Story from @VentureBeat venturebeat.com/2018/10/14/san…
- Congrats to identical triplets Tiara, Taylor & Tiger, who graduate from @UCSanDiego Saturday! Tiara earned a degree in computer science; Tiger in computer engineering; and Tiara cognitive science with ML specialization #UCSD2021 10news.com/positivelysand… 📸:elyssenicole.photo
