Computational Science Research Center at SDSU

SDSU Computational Science Research Center 21st Anniversary.

In honor of our 21st anniversary, we want to say thank you to all those alumni that support our mission. Please visit sdsualumni.org/csrc20? to help shape the future of the CSRC.

Our next Day of Giving for Computational Science Research Center (CSRC) will be on December 5th, 2019.

By following the link provided below, your tax-deductible donation will be made directly to the CSRC. These funds are key in accomplishing our mission, the development and advancement of computational science by fostering research, educational programs, industrial interaction and partnership activities. We understand that there are a number of groups and organizations seeking donations this time of year, but hope that you will join us with your contribution to support student projects, student travel fund, teaching and the research mission set out by the CSRC, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.

Please help support all our efforts by giving tomorrow using the link:

CSRC participates on research on health disparities
CSRC Associate Director Guadalupe X. "Suchi" Ayala is leading this effort along with Director Jose Castillo, funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) DHHS Nat Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities. The $2,000,000 grant from NIH is a portion of a proposed total 10 million 5-Year Endowment Strategic Plan funded for `Building Capacity and Infrastructure for Population Health and Health Disparities Research at San Diego State University' (SDSU).
The grant renewal was submitted as an interdisciplinary team including engineering professor Keen Moon and SDSU president Adela de la Torre. The mission of the Strategic Plan is to create an infrastructure for innovative and significant translational research to achieve population-level health changes and reduce health disparities among racially/ethnically diverse populations (Hispanic/ Latino and immigrant groups most notably), sexual minorities, and lower-income populations in the United States (US).

CSRC DATA SCIENCE WORKSHOP, May 28-30, 2019
Data science continues to evolve as one of the most promising and in-demand fields sought by industry and national labs. On 2018, CSRC started offering a MS degree with emphasis in data science. A three day workshop on data science was offered to students, including short lectures and a lab. The workshop covered an introduction to data science, statistical and machine learning, with an emphasis on two supervised learning algorithm methods: Random forests and neural networks. The students (see photo) were glad to participate in this opportunity to cover a lot of information in the data science field in only three sessions. For more information on the workshop, on-line certificates and PhD degree program in Computational Science (offered jointly with UC Irvine), please contact the Computational Research Center at: [email protected]

Textures (that feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface or a substance) are highly variable, which makes them very difficult to define in a mathematical model. A new paper by CSRC associated faculty Jerome Gilles may shed some light on the analysis of textures in images with many possible applications.
