UCSD @ 50

In honor of UC San Diego’s momentous 50th anniversary, UCSD-TV  presents a yearlong magazine series highlighting the diverse and  extraordinary work being done every day on this campus.

The first installment, premiering September 13 at 8pm, introduces us to  UCSD’s Center for Community Well-Being, a collaborative focused on improving the lives of school-age children in Southeastern San Diego; the groundbreaking brain research taking place at UCSD’s Center of Autism Excellence; and a look at how Scripps Institution of Oceanography is shaping the future of medicines and how scientists will monitor the health of our planet.

Tune in to see all the action when researchers from UCSD’s Jacobs School of Engineering and the Metal Building Manufacturers of America visit the UCSD Englekirk Structural Engineering Center’s high performance shake table to subject these metal building designs to some of the most extreme earthquake shaking ever recorded.
