1) Nano3
The Nanoscience, Nanoengineering and Nanomedicine Research Facility (Nano3) is a multidisciplinary shared research facility located at UCSD’s Qualcomm Institute. Nano3 provides researchers from across the country with world-class expertise, instrumentation, and services for multidisciplinary nanoscience, engineering, and medicine research. On a yearly basis, Nano3 has more than 50,000 hours of instrument usage, serves more than 600 users from academia and over 60 industrial companies. Nano3 is also the main facility of the San Diego Nanotechnology Infrastructure, one of the 16 nation-wide sites of the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure supported by the National Science Foundation since 2015. https://nanofab.ucsd.edu/about/
2) Center for Wireless Communications
5G is poised to reshape the technological world as we know it. A new wave of applications is on the horizon, including Connected Health, Smart Transportation, new immersive media experiences, better data collection and analytics, and the Internet of Things (IoT), a “smart” connected world at the confluence of sensing technologies, and machine learning. Just as important is the quest for low-power, low-cost circuitry and affordable phased-arrays for 5G applications. These cutting-edge projects are the focus of research at the Center for Wireless Communications. https://cwc.ucsd.edu/
3) Center for Wearable Sensors
The Center for Wearable Sensors brings together top UC San Diego faculty, students, and researchers in sensors, low-power circuits, materials, electrochemistry, bioengineering, wireless network technologies, preventive medicine, the life sciences, and more. https://wearablesensors.ucsd.edu/about
4) Supercomputing Center
SDSC translates research into impacts across three scopes – the nation, the state, and the UC system – by meeting the needs of domestic stakeholders, protecting the California way of life amid climate change, and providing computation and data resources to faculty and researchers to advance scientific discovery. https://www.sdsc.edu/index.html
