  • Niki De Saint Phalle's Collection in San Diego
    San Diego Boasts the Largest American Collection of Saint Phalle’s Work San Diego has played an especially significant role in Niki de Saint Phalle’s career and visitors can see more of her work here than in any other American city. In 1983, nearly a decade before she moved from France to La Jolla, the artist received her first American commission—to create Sun God for the acclaimed Stuart Collection on the campus of the University of California, San Diego. Saint Phalle’s only American sculpture garden, Queen Califia’s Magical Circle, is also located in San Diego’s North County. This is the artist’s last major international project before her death in 2002. Other large-scale sculptures are found in museums, civic spaces and private collections throughout San Diego County, the most important of which are highlighted below. Queen Califia’s Magical Circle, 2003 #19 Baseball Player, 1999 Polystyrene, polyurethane, fiberglass, steel Polyurethane foam, resin, steel armature, stained armature, glass mosaics, mirrors, stones, and mirrored glass, ceramic tiles, gold leaf ceramics 115 x 51.2 inches 120 feet in diameter, dimensions vary Artist’s Collection; Loan to The San Diego Hall Iris Sankey Arboretum, Kit Carson Park, of Champions, 2131 Pan American Plaza, Balboa Escondido Park, San Diego Coming Together, 2001 Ganesh, 1998 Polyurethane foam, resin, steel armature, Steel, polystyrene foam, polyurethane, stained and mirrored glass, ceramic tile automotive paint, electronic component, light 38 feet bulbs, on iron base Commissioned by the San Diego Commission Elephant: 128 x 62 x 58 inches for Arts and Culture & the Port’s Public Art Mouse: 26 x 28 x 15 inches Committee Collection of Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, San Diego Convention Center, 8th Ave.

  • October 2, 2020 COVID-19 Update to UC Regents
    January 8, 2021 Update COVID-19 AND 'CORONAVIRUS' UPDATES CARRIE L. BYINGTON, MD Executive Vice President, University of California Health THE IMPACT ON OUR HEALTH SYSTEM This is the 27th update for Regents regarding the SARS-CoV-2 virus pandemic and its impact on the University's health and academic enterprise. We usher in 2021 against a backdrop of failed national leadership and chaos in Washington DC. In this environment, the pandemic has been relentless. We are in the midst of the most severe surge experienced to date, with December 2020 the deadliest month of the pandemic thus far. I am very concerned that the post-Christmas, post- New Year's "surge on top of a surge," as described by Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Institutes of Health, will lead to even worse outcomes and an even higher death toll this month. At the same time, we have given the first COVID-19 vaccine dose to ~ 85% of frontline health care workers across University of California Health (UCH), and expect all remaining priority 1A personnel who want to be vaccinated will receive their first dose by early next week. Some health care workers have already begun receiving their second doses. We look forward to having a fully immunized health workforce by February. COVID-19 BY THE NUMBERS COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations have soared since my last update on December 4. Nationally, the number of cases now exceeds 21.2 million, and the cumulative death toll stands at 359,849, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

  • Our University Innovation Is Central to Who We Are and What We Do at the University of California, San Diego
    Our University Innovation is central to who we are and what we do at the University of California, San Diego. Here, students learn that knowledge isn’t just acquired in the classroom—life is their laboratory. UC San Diego is an academic powerhouse and economic engine, recognized as one of the top 10 public universities by U.S. News & World Report and ranked number one in the nation for public service by the Washington Monthly. Our location is unparalleled, our impact unmistakable. UC San Diego shapes minds, changes lives, launches industries and builds the future … one student, one discovery and one achievement at a time. Points of Distinction Scripps Institution of Oceanography climate scientist Charles David Keeling was the first to confirm the buildup of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. His precise measurements, which he began calculating in 1958, produced a data set now known widely as the “Keeling Curve,” a benchmark of global warming studies. The Jacobs School of Engineering is home to the world’s first full-scale outdoor shake table, designed to create realistic simulations of the most devastating earthquakes on record to advance seismic safety. UC San Diego is unique among other UC campuses—our university offers undergraduates the “small college” concept patterned after those at Cambridge and Oxford. Each of the six undergraduate colleges has its own residence halls, student services, traditions and even graduation ceremonies. While the undergraduates remain part of one university, they also develop a sense of identity within the smaller family of their chosen college. In 1986 UC San Diego established the first Cognitive Science Department in the world, which has become one of the leading centers of this field.

  • The Impact on Our Health System New Clinical
    May 1, 2020 COVID-19 AND 'CORONAVIRUS' UPDATES CARRIE L. BYINGTON, MD Executive Vice President, UC Health THE IMPACT ON OUR HEALTH SYSTEM This is the 12th update for Regents regarding the SARS-CoV-2 virus pandemic and the impact on the University's health and academic enterprise. As of May 1, California had 50,442 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with 2,073 fatalities, according to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), and the U.S. passed another milestone with more than 1 million cases nationally with 62,406 deaths, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Thus far, we are aware of two UC employees who have died due to COVID-19, one who worked as a shuttle bus driver at UC Santa Cruz and, last week, a facilities management employee who worked in UCLA Health Sciences buildings. The sad reality is that we may experience more loss, given the size of UC's workforce and the prevalence of the virus. To all who have lost someone, our thoughts are with you. On April 28, six Bay Area counties extended their stay-at-home orders through May 31, although with easing of some restrictions for business that operate outdoors. UCOP and the UC Health division office will continue remote operations. Nearly six weeks since the statewide stay-at-home order was issued, people are understandably anxious to return to a degree of normalcy. In a sign that states recognize the need for coordinated action, Colorado and Nevada have joined the Western States Pact, which includes Oregon, Washington state and California.
