The Summer RISE Program is a 10-week paid summer research opportunity for UCR undergraduate students hosted by UCR’s College of Natural & Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) with collaboration from partners like the UCR Library and Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) amongst others.

Each year, the program brings together undergrads and pairs them with faculty mentors to engage in hands-on scientific inquiry. Over the summer, undergraduate students conduct original research and showcase their findings at the culminating RISE/MARC Symposium.

This exhibit features posters from the most recent symposium, held on August 26, 2026. The posters highlight student-led projects across science disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary science spirit the Summer RISE Program inspires.

We invite the campus community to explore the posters, celebrate the achievements of undergraduate student researchers, and learn more about the impact of the RISE program on cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders.

As you view the posters, please feel free to leave a small star as a kudos for your favorites. You'll see the stars on a small table at the front of the exhibit. Share as many stars as you like.

To learn more about the research, read the abstracts here. To learn more about RISE visit rise.ucr.edu.

Jacqueline Avila (Associate Professor of Musicology/Ethnomusicology, UT Austin)

Haunting and Soundscapes in Pedro Páramo (2024)

This presentation explores how sound and music have been translated and interpreted from Juan Rulfo’s novel Pedro to Páramo to Rodrigo Prieto’s 2024 film adaptation. I argue that sound—both diegetic and non-diegetic—functions as a significant character within both the novel and the film, used strategically to emphasize the notion of haunting. In his novel, Rulfo portrays a curated tapestry of sounds that promote a sense of stasis within the story, essentially detailing an intricate and provocative sound design that accentuates the backdrop, the characters, and the haunting taking place in the narrative. The film adopts Rulfo’s description and augments this soundscape with sound markers and musical references from Mexican cinema’s revolutionary melodrama, creating an audio-visual work that ties a variety of media together. Building off of these relationships, Prieto’s Pedro Páramo uses these sonic and musical moments to shape the ghosts of the narrative, the haunting of the Mexican revolution, and aural memories of Mexico’s past.

Bio:

Jacqueline Avila is an Associate Professor in Musicology/Ethnomusicology at the University of Texas at Austin. Her research examines film music and the intersections of identity, tradition, and modernity in the Hollywood and Mexican film industries. Her book is entitled Cinesonidos: Film Music and National Identity during Mexico’s época de oro, published with Oxford University Press, Music/Media Series. Dr. Avila was the recipient of the UC MEXUS Dissertation Research Grant, the American Musicological Society’s Howard Mayer Brown Fellowship, the UC MEXUS Postdoctoral Fellowship, and the Robert E. Greenleaf Visiting Library Scholar Award. Her publications can be found in the Journal of Film Music, Latin American Music Review, American Music, Opera Quarterly, the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Latin American History, and the edited volume Cinema Between Latin American and Los Angeles: Origins to 1960. Dr. Avila’s current projects focus on transnationalism, nostalgia, and cultural identity in Latinx film and streaming media and the musical cultures on the US-Mexico border.

Abstract: Over the last century, cosmological and astrophysical measurements have consistently and clearly told us one thing, which we cannot explain: we do not know what the universe is made of or how it got here. 85% of the mass of all matter in the universe is made of dark matter, which exerts gravitational influence on galaxies and holds the universe together but cannot be explained by the Standard Model of particle physics. In order to figure out what the universe is made of on a fundamental level, new detectors are needed to measure the rarest, often extremely faint, interactions that nature can throw at us. Designing these detectors requires identifying materials that can instrument detectors the size of an office with precise control of detector performance. In this talk, we will discuss the material challenges that stand between us and understanding the makeup of the universe.

A new workshop series for graduate students, from UCR Library Teaching & Learning and GrAdvantage

Many graduate students step into a classroom before anyone has had time to talk with them about how teaching works. The Pedagogy Praxis is a new series designed to help close that gap. Offered by UCR Library Teaching & Learning as part of GrAdvantage programming, it helps graduate students grow as instructors, put teaching theory into practice, and build connections with colleagues in other departments.

Beginning Wednesday, October 14, 2026, the series meets twice a month from 1:00 to 1:50 p.m. The second-week session is theory: a discussion-based, reading-group-style conversation in GrAdvantage, with optional readings shared ahead of time. The fourth-week session is practical: we move into a library classroom (Orbach 122, Rivera 138, or Rivera 140) and try out activities together, taking turns as instructor and student. Each month's two sessions build on one topic, and you are welcome to attend one or both. Some topics will return with fresh examples.

This fall, we will explore:

Citation Justice: Diverse Readings for Your Classroom (Oct. 14 and 28)Offload or Overload? AI Literacy and Scaffolding Learning (Nov. 10 and 24)Andragogy and Pedagogy Basics: Getting Back to a Beginner Mindset (Dec. 9), followed by an open share-out on how your quarter went (Dec. 16)
The series continues through August 2027 with open educational resources, primary source literacy, gamification, classroom management, media literacy, active learning, flipped classrooms, and writing a statement of teaching philosophy.

The skills you build here apply to the classes you teach today and to your job search tomorrow. You will leave with tested activities, practice collaborating with librarians and guest speakers, and language for describing your teaching.

All graduate students are welcome, from every discipline. Library staff and faculty interested in pedagogy may attend, though seats will go to graduate students first if space runs short. Bring your lunch; brown bags are welcome.

Please register: https://forms.gle/8nJApKpoJMoykCRQ7

Event: AI Teachtalks: Competencies for Using AI in Education

Date & Time: Wednesday, October 14, 2026 | 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM

As artificial intelligence rapidly transforms academic research, teaching, and learning, higher education must move beyond basic tool adoption toward a critical, ethical, and reflective practice.

This presentation frames digital competence not merely as technical skill, but as the capacity to mobilize and integrate Knowledge, Skills, and Attitudes (KSA) to solve complex pedagogical challenges. Designed for researchers, academics, and educators, the session explores leading international AI competency frameworks, examines the theoretical foundations of the Model of Teachers' Digital Competencies for the Use of AI in Education (developed in Brazil), and highlights recent research from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) on the vital role of socio-affective competencies in digital learning environments.

Key Topics Covered

Digital Competencies in Education: Mobilizing Knowledge, Skills, and Attitudes (KSA) for communication, collaboration, and problem-solving.

AI Competency Frameworks: Comparing leading global standards with the Brazilian model for educators' digital competencies.

Ethical & Purposeful AI Use: Transitioning from instrumental technology adoption to critical and reflective pedagogical engagement.

Socio-Affective Dimensions: Understanding the emotional and social factors shaping online and AI-enhanced learning.

Speaker Biography

The Summer RISE Program is a 10-week paid summer research opportunity for UCR undergraduate students hosted by UCR’s College of Natural & Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) with collaboration from partners like the UCR Library and Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) amongst others.

Each year, the program brings together undergrads and pairs them with faculty mentors to engage in hands-on scientific inquiry. Over the summer, undergraduate students conduct original research and showcase their findings at the culminating RISE/MARC Symposium.

This exhibit features posters from the most recent symposium, held on August 26, 2026. The posters highlight student-led projects across science disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary science spirit the Summer RISE Program inspires.

We invite the campus community to explore the posters, celebrate the achievements of undergraduate student researchers, and learn more about the impact of the RISE program on cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders.

As you view the posters, please feel free to leave a small star as a kudos for your favorites. You'll see the stars on a small table at the front of the exhibit. Share as many stars as you like.

To learn more about the research, read the abstracts here. To learn more about RISE visit rise.ucr.edu.

Dr. Rozell will discuss research using neurotechnology and data science to better understand recovery from treatment-resistant depression (TRD). His presentation will highlight efforts to analyze brain activity from patients undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS), develop artificial intelligence techniques to identify biomarkers of recovery, and explore how these biomarkers could support clinical decision-making.

Abstract:

Simultaneous advances in neurotechnology and data science have created new opportunities to measure, modulate and understand the neural activity underlying complex psychiatric disorders such as treatment resistant depression (TRD). Despite promising explorations of deep brain stimulation (DBS) as a therapy for TRD, one of the barriers to scaling this treatment is the lack of objective information supporting clinical decision making during recovery. In particular, a major complicating factor is that we aim to control a complex dynamical system state related to the disorder but the system states are not well characterized and we only routinely access subjective readouts of that state. I will describe our recent efforts collecting and analyzing longitudinal intracranial electrophysiology data from TRD patients undergoing subcallosal cingulate cortex (SCC) DBS, as well as our development of novel AI techniques to identify electrophysiology biomarkers of disease recovery state. I will show how this data-driven biomarker can potentially be used in clinical decision support through patient case studies, as well as shed light on the microcircuit structures and complex behaviors that underly TRD pathology and recovery. Finally, I will describe briefly our current efforts in multimodal naturalistic behavioral paradigms that aim to better understand the disfunction of brain-body interactions in motivated behavior deficits commonly seen in psychiatric disorders.

Alaav is the story of Bhaveen Gossain, a 63-year-old son, taking care of Savitri, his ailing 95-year-old mother in their home nestled in a quiet suburb of New Delhi, India. Bhaveen rarely steps out of his house as he is completely devoted to looking after his mother. From waking up in the morning until going to sleep, Bhaveen is the sole caregiver for his mother, Savitri.

The film not only deals with the tenderness, playfulness, patience and devotion of Bhaveen but also the struggles, frustrations, resentment and passive aggression caregiving entails. It is a dispassionate yet intimate portrayal of the human bond between a mother and son along with the other people closely involved in Bhaveen’s life.

"[A] piercingly honest and uncompromising portrait of caregiving... [that] blurs the line between documentary and fiction." (Hindustan Times)

Co-sponsored by Media & Cultural Studies and Asian Studies

UCR is an R1 and an AAU university. But most humanities undergraduates do not get hands-on research experience until they have finished most of their coursework, and there are few openings for students who simply want to try it: to learn a technique, to work closely with an instructor or professor, to find out whether research is something they want to explore further. The two Engaged Learning fellowship opportunities are built to widen that opening, and to do it across departments.

Faculty at all ranks and graduate students at all stages are welcome; no prior experience with undergraduate research is required, only an interest in trying it.

Deadline: October 16, 2026

For the Fall 2026 quarter, we will explore strategies and learn from those already integrating AI in their courses through hands-on demonstrations and dedicated work time. We encourage participants to come ready to engage in discussion, hands-on activities, and thoughtful application of AI.

Typical session structure: 2–3 presenters each, 40 minutes per session. a 6–10 minute pitch per presenter (variable based on # of presenters), followed by 20–30 minutes in breakout rooms.

Please register to receive Zoom meeting details: https://tinyurl.com/AI-TL-CoP

Session 1 (Fri., Oct. 16th, 10 - 11am):

“Learnmaxxing and GenAI: Critical AI Literacy as Both a Method and an Outcome” with Rory Moore, PhD, Continuing Lecturer, University Writing Program. Descr.: My presentation focuses on goals for AI literacy connected to a core writing course on semiotics; how I used GAI to develop the materials for study; a review of worksheets students used to work through scaffolded inquiry; an example of student work; and suggestions for adapting the project for other disciplines.

“From AI Users to AI-Aware Learners” with Karthikeyan Chandrasegaran, PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Entomology. Descr.: This session will explore how we can design learning activities that make students more aware of what AI does well, where it can go wrong, and when human judgment is still essential. I will use simple examples to show how AI can sound convincing even when the evidence is incomplete, and how those moments can be turned into useful teaching opportunities.

"Creating AI-Aware Assignments and Assessments in Higher Education" with Ann Kwinn, PhD, Manager of Instructional Design and Quality Control for UC Riverside Extension. Descr.: The wide adoption of generative AI has fundamentally challenged the traditional "final product" model of academic assessment. For decades, the essay served as the primary proxy for student cognition. This session provides a roadmap for instructors to redesign assignments. Allowing students to farm out their work to a machine risks erasing the opportunity for students to learn. By utilizing the five pillars framework of how to mitigate this risk in the new AI-powered world (these pillars are situatedness, process, cognition, format and personalization) instructors can create useful assignments that promote learning.

Session 2 (Fri., Oct. 30th, 10-11am): Community Meeting (open discussion)Session 3 (Tues., Nov. 10th, 10-11am):

“Redesigning Capstones: Leveraging AI, Encouraging Self-Sufficiency, and Promoting Student Agency in Physics 142W" with Dr. Raymund Papica, University Writing Associate Director, Writing Across the Curriculum Coordinator. Descr.: This presentation will break down a capstone assignment for a writing-intensive Physics 142W course. This specific capstone assignment was redesigned to balance AI (as an exploratory and visual tool) and student agency by placing students in the role of teacher.

"Integrating AI and Collective Team Intelligence for developing Data Analytics Solutions for Company Projects aligned with Course Syllabus" with Dr. Nidhi Shah, Riipen Project Management + Business Instructor at UCR Professional and Global Education. Descr.: This helps students to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Collective team intelligence to develop data-driven analytics solutions for real-world company projects. Students will learn how to identify business challenges, analyze and interpret data, leverage AI-powered tools, and collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams to generate actionable recommendations. Through hands-on industry projects aligned with the course syllabus, students will transform business problems into growth opportunities by developing strategic solutions, improving decision-making, enhancing operational performance, and creating measurable business value to drive innovation.

"The 24/7 Virtual Teaching Assistant for Asynchronous Online Courses" with Truc Nguyen, Instructional Technologist & Designer, UCR Professional and Global Education. Descr.: To better support diverse online learners outside standard office hours, we are exploring an AI assistant using Google’s NotebookLM for online courses. Trained on syllabi, FAQs, and course materials—with future audio and video integration—the tool delivers instant answers to routine inquiries, provide immediate, 24/7 support for asynchronous online students.

**Zoom details will be shared upon your registration submission.

We look forward to seeing you soon, and please don't hesitate to share the opportunity with colleagues: https://tinyurl.com/AI-TL-CoP!

If you are interested in speaking or presenting to this AI Teaching & Learning Community of Practice about your AI pedagogy in a future term, please submit your information to the "AI CoP Speaker Invitation & Registration Form."

Abstract: Surfactant diacetylene molecules can be polymerized to make inexpensive polydiacetylene (PDA) sensors that transform from visibly blue to red and from non-fluorescent to highly fluorescent upon exposure to sufficient thermal, mechanical, or radiative stimuli. Tuning the threshold and range of this response is essential for detecting weak biological signals. The talk will describe high-quality PDA Langmuir films and vesicles and show how tail length, headgroup chemistry, ions and lipid dopants tune vesicle assembly, polymerization, and stimulus sensitivity. Shorter tail-length and ethanolamine headgroup functionalization lower thermal switching thresholds, while boronic acid functionalization increases the threshold. Notably, selected saturated lipid dopants accelerate polymerization and produce a graded response to temperature. The broadened chromatic transition converts the sensor's behavior from a thresholdbased (binary) response into a proportional (analog) response - a dramatic capability enhancement that significantly expands the utility of PDA-based sensors. These effects can be understood in terms of stress placed on the polydiacetylene backbone that promote or inhibit the transition from the blue to red phase. Example applications will include two-dimensional films that report cell-generated shear stresses and three-dimensional vesicle sensors embedded in hydrogels for sensing contractions of single cardiomyocytes (heart cells).

About the Book

Chicago is a city with extreme concentrations of racialized poverty and inequity, one that relies on an extensive network of repressive agencies to police the poor and suppress struggles for social justice. Imperial Policing examines the role of local law enforcement, federal immigration authorities, and national security agencies in upholding the city’s highly unequal social order.

Part of the "'On Violence' Experimental Study Sequence" (pt. 3, Fall 2026)
Join us for a sequence of conversations with authors of key texts addressing violence, empire, liberation, solidarity, abolition, and the problem of “Man”/human. These live discussions will be led by students of the “‘On Violence’ Experimental Study Sequence,” taught by Prof. Dylan Rodríguez. Participants will have opportunities to engage with authors during the sessions, to whatever extent time permits. This is an experiment. We hope you will read the authors’ work prior to each study meeting, but as importantly, we aspire to cultivate a sense of intellectual collaboration, curiosity, and activated thought.

Sponsored by The Decolonizing Humanism(?) programming stream at the UCR Center for Ideas and Society

The Afro-Punk documentary was the first film to ask Black punks about their lives. The conversation hasn’t ended since. Directed by James Spooner and released in 2003, the film follows Black punks and hardcore kids who existed at the margins of two worlds, invisible in mainstream Black culture and uncentered in the predominantly white alternative scenes they pioneered. Through intimate interviews, personal testimony, and four protagonists whose lives anchor the film, the film asks a simple question with no simple answer: what does it mean to be Black and punk?

The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and went on to screen at more than 300 festivals, colleges, and community spaces worldwide. It was made without institutional backing on a self-financed budget, driven entirely by the communities it documented. That DIY origin became part of its identity.

Afro-Punk did not just document a subculture, it named one. The film is widely credited with galvanizing a dispersed community into a recognizable movement, and directly inspired what would become the AFROPUNK Festival, one of the largest celebrations of Black alternative culture in the world. Spooner has since departed from the festival, but the film that started it all remains his.

In 2026, more than two decades after its release, a Kickstarter campaign to restore Afro-Punk surpassed its funding goal by more than three times, a measure of how much the film still means to the people who grew up with it. The restoration completes the professional color correction and sound mix that were financially out of reach during the original production, realizing the presentation the film always deserved while preserving the rawness that made it matter.

This is Afro-Punk as it was always intended to be seen.

About James Spooner

James Spooner is an award winning graphic novelist, filmmaker and tattoo artist. His debut graphic novel, The High Desert was named “Best of 2022” by Publishers Weekly, The Washington Post and The New York Public Library. The High Desert is the 2023 recipient of the American Library Association’s Alex Award and the Cartoonist Studio Prize. Spooner co-edited an anthology of Black punk writers and comic creators entitled, Black Punk Now. Available now, the book was named in the top 10 Music Books of 2023 by Pitchfork, top 5 Music Books from the Guardian and received a Kirkus star. Pantheon has acquired his forthcoming book It Starts With Anger, set for publication in Aug of 2026. He was recently commissioned to adapt a story by the Scottish Book Trust and is regular contributor to RazorCake Magazine.

Spooner directed the seminal documentary Afro-Punk which premiered at national and international film festivals, including Toronto International and The American Black Film Festival. James also co-founded the AfroPunk Festival, which currently boasts audiences in the hundreds of thousands around the world.

​Spooner’s work has been recounted in various publications, including NPR, The Los Angeles Times, Vice, The Village Voice, The New Yorker, MTV, NBC News and Variety. He was a recipient of the ReNew Media Rockefeller Grant. He is a guest curator for the Broad Museum in Los Angeles and the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas and previously programmed for the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

The Summer RISE Program is a 10-week paid summer research opportunity for UCR undergraduate students hosted by UCR’s College of Natural & Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) with collaboration from partners like the UCR Library and Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) amongst others.

Each year, the program brings together undergrads and pairs them with faculty mentors to engage in hands-on scientific inquiry. Over the summer, undergraduate students conduct original research and showcase their findings at the culminating RISE/MARC Symposium.

This exhibit features posters from the most recent symposium, held on August 26, 2026. The posters highlight student-led projects across science disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary science spirit the Summer RISE Program inspires.

We invite the campus community to explore the posters, celebrate the achievements of undergraduate student researchers, and learn more about the impact of the RISE program on cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders.

As you view the posters, please feel free to leave a small star as a kudos for your favorites. You'll see the stars on a small table at the front of the exhibit. Share as many stars as you like.

To learn more about the research, read the abstracts here. To learn more about RISE visit rise.ucr.edu.

View this exhibit until Sunday, October 25 during Orbach’s Library's fall quarter operating hours.

Monday - Thursday: 7:30 a.m. - 12 p.m.Friday: 7:30 a.m. - 6 p.m. Saturday: 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Sunday: 1 p.m. - 9 p.m.

Graduate education and postdoctoral training give PhDs the opportunity to develop deep expertise in a specific subject area. But for most PhDs who pursue nonacademic careers, what connects their graduate training to their professional life is not their subject matter — it is the skills, values, and interests they developed along the way.

When starting a nonacademic job search, many doctoral students and postdocs ask: "What can I do with my PhD?" But that is often not the most useful place to start. A more productive question is: "What skills have I developed, and where can I apply them?"

In this webinar, you will learn how to reflect on your graduate training, identify the transferable skills you’ve developed, and communicate your value clearly to nonacademic employers — in your job documents and in interviews.

This webinar is designed for doctoral students, PhDs, and postdocs from all academic disciplines who are wondering:

How do I identify the skills I’ve developed in my graduate training?What do nonacademic employers look for in a candidate — and how does my background align?How do I communicate my value to employers when my expertise is highly specialized?

Abstract: Hierarchical architected materials offer opportunities to tailor material properties and achieve multifunctionality by organizing structural features across multiple length scales. For example, architectures designed to carry mechanical loads can also incorporate interconnected pathways for fluid transport and thermal management, allowing structural and functional requirements to be addressed within the same material system. Additive manufacturing now enables fabrication of such intricate configurations without complex tooling. However, realizing their full potential requires understanding how architecture, constituent material microstructure, and manufacturing-induced heterogeneity interact to govern mechanical response, a prerequisite for reliable performance prediction and safe deployment. In this talk, I will discuss our research on the relationships among microstructure, topology, and mechanical response in additively manufactured metallic lattices. Our work combines experimental characterization and computational modeling to identify deformation mechanisms and integrate such information into design. These findings raise broader questions about how to represent and design hierarchical materials when behavior depends on coupled mechanisms operating across length scales. Digital twins that integrate experimental measurements, physics-based models, and uncertainty-aware computational tools can address these questions and support the design and optimization of hierarchical materials.

The Summer RISE Program is a 10-week paid summer research opportunity for UCR undergraduate students hosted by UCR’s College of Natural & Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) with collaboration from partners like the UCR Library and Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) amongst others.

Each year, the program brings together undergrads and pairs them with faculty mentors to engage in hands-on scientific inquiry. Over the summer, undergraduate students conduct original research and showcase their findings at the culminating RISE/MARC Symposium.

This exhibit features posters from the most recent symposium, held on August 26, 2026. The posters highlight student-led projects across science disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary science spirit the Summer RISE Program inspires.

We invite the campus community to explore the posters, celebrate the achievements of undergraduate student researchers, and learn more about the impact of the RISE program on cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders.

As you view the posters, please feel free to leave a small star as a kudos for your favorites. You'll see the stars on a small table at the front of the exhibit. Share as many stars as you like.

To learn more about the research, read the abstracts here. To learn more about RISE visit rise.ucr.edu.

View this exhibit until Sunday, October 25 during Orbach’s Library's fall quarter operating hours.

Abstract:

Compared to vision, the complementary sense of touch has yet to be broadly integrated into robotic systems that physically interact with the world. An artificial sense of touch is especially useful when visual feedback is degraded, intermittent, or otherwise absent. In this presentation, I will highlight our work on task-driven efforts to endow robots with tactile perception capabilities for human-robot interaction, remote work in harsh environments, and the manipulation of deformable objects. Real-time tactile perception and decision-making capabilities could be used to advance semi-autonomous robot systems and reduce the cognitive burden on human teleoperators. With advances in haptic display technologies, interfaces with the human body, and networking capabilities, however, touch can be used for more than completing tasks. Touch can enhance social connections from afar, enable the inclusion of marginalized groups in community activities, and create new opportunities for remote work involving social and physical interactions.

Professor Glaude recently published America, U.S.A.: How Race Shadows the Nation’s Anniversaries (2026), looking back from the 250th anniversary of the United States at how the US has struggled to acknowledge its complex history. For Professor Glaude, many milestone national anniversaries have re-affirmed myths as much as retrospectively reflected them. Those abiding myths and much-needed reflections occasion a critical evaluation of how collective memory has operated in broader US culture for centuries, particularly around concepts like innocence and freedom. This incisive intervention, at a key moment in the US’s history, is part of a broader examination by Professor Glaude at how our nation has long been a contested notion, struggling to acknowledge a past riven with violent inequality and to imagine a more just future.

The Summer RISE Program is a 10-week paid summer research opportunity for UCR undergraduate students hosted by UCR’s College of Natural & Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) with collaboration from partners like the UCR Library and Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) amongst others.

Each year, the program brings together undergrads and pairs them with faculty mentors to engage in hands-on scientific inquiry. Over the summer, undergraduate students conduct original research and showcase their findings at the culminating RISE/MARC Symposium.

This exhibit features posters from the most recent symposium, held on August 26, 2026. The posters highlight student-led projects across science disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary science spirit the Summer RISE Program inspires.

We invite the campus community to explore the posters, celebrate the achievements of undergraduate student researchers, and learn more about the impact of the RISE program on cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders.

As you view the posters, please feel free to leave a small star as a kudos for your favorites. You'll see the stars on a small table at the front of the exhibit. Share as many stars as you like.

To learn more about the research, read the abstracts here. To learn more about RISE visit rise.ucr.edu.

View this exhibit until Sunday, October 25 during Orbach’s Library's fall quarter operating hours.

Monday - Thursday: 7:30 a.m. - 12 p.m.Friday: 7:30 a.m. - 6 p.m. Saturday: 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Sunday: 1 p.m. - 9 p.m.

Abstract:Cellular membranes are dynamic interfaces that regulate communication, trafficking, and molecular uptake.
Understanding how proteins sense and remodel these interfaces is central to explaining cell function and to designing
new delivery strategies. My research group integrates engineering principles with quantitative fluorescence approaches
to uncover the physical mechanisms that govern protein–membrane interactions.
In this seminar, I will highlight our work across several protein–membrane systems. We examine how the intrinsically
disordered protein α-synuclein, which is implicated in Parkinson’s disease, modulates its membrane binding through
post-translational modifications and drives membrane curvature. We also investigate how clathrin assembles on
membranes, both independently and in concert with adaptor proteins, to promote endocytic membrane fission. In
parallel, we study cell-penetrating peptides that exhibit a striking ability to undergo directional transport across
membranes, leading to accumulation within vesicles and cells. Finally, we explore engineering strategies that couple
membrane-active peptides to molecular cargo to enhance cellular uptake.
Together, these studies define general physical principles by which proteins sense and shape biological membranes,
providing a framework for understanding membrane remodeling, regulation of cellular surfaces, and the rational
design of intracellular delivery systems.

Student success is more than academic success. It includes opportunities for growth through experience – experience in the form of attending industry conferences, participating in case competitions, studying abroad, and through internships. Most of these opportunities have a cost associated with them that may be an obstacle. At the UCR School of Business, we know the importance of these educational opportunities for all students, not just those with means. That is why the school created the Student Success Fund and initiated an event to provide support and funding for all students.

The Summer RISE Program is a 10-week paid summer research opportunity for UCR undergraduate students hosted by UCR’s College of Natural & Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) with collaboration from partners like the UCR Library and Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) amongst others.

Each year, the program brings together undergrads and pairs them with faculty mentors to engage in hands-on scientific inquiry. Over the summer, undergraduate students conduct original research and showcase their findings at the culminating RISE/MARC Symposium.

This exhibit features posters from the most recent symposium, held on August 26, 2026. The posters highlight student-led projects across science disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary science spirit the Summer RISE Program inspires.

We invite the campus community to explore the posters, celebrate the achievements of undergraduate student researchers, and learn more about the impact of the RISE program on cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders.

As you view the posters, please feel free to leave a small star as a kudos for your favorites. You'll see the stars on a small table at the front of the exhibit. Share as many stars as you like.

To learn more about the research, read the abstracts here. To learn more about RISE visit rise.ucr.edu.

View this exhibit until Sunday, October 25 during Orbach’s Library's fall quarter operating hours.

Monday - Thursday: 7:30 a.m. - 12 p.m.Friday: 7:30 a.m. - 6 p.m. Saturday: 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Sunday: 1 p.m. - 9 p.m.

About the Book
Upends the “broken systems” myth and reveals how the law deliberately criminalizes and punishes Black women, inflicting lasting harm on Black communities in the process.

Part of the "'On Violence' Experimental Study Sequence" (pt. 3, Fall 2026)
Join us for a sequence of conversations with authors of key texts addressing violence, empire, liberation, solidarity, abolition, and the problem of “Man”/human. These live discussions will be led by students of the “‘On Violence’ Experimental Study Sequence,” taught by Prof. Dylan Rodríguez. Participants will have opportunities to engage with authors during the sessions, to whatever extent time permits. This is an experiment. We hope you will read the authors’ work prior to each study meeting, but as importantly, we aspire to cultivate a sense of intellectual collaboration, curiosity, and activated thought.

Sponsored by The Decolonizing Humanism(?) programming stream at the UCR Center for Ideas and Society
