SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"A Tale of Stellar and Planetary Adolescence and Evolution\"\n\nWithin the past decade\, we have discovered only a dozen young (< 300 Myr) short-period exoplanets\, compared to the ~6\,000 mature systems. The radii of these young planets are larger than older planets on similar orbital periods. The leading hypothesis is that these young planets have inflated atmospheres because they are still contracting. Inflated atmospheres are more susceptible to photoevaporation --- atmospheric removal driven by X-ray and ultraviolet (XUV) stellar irradiation. These effects are intensified in the earliest stages of planetary evolution\, when young stars are more active and produce extreme XUV radiation on a variety of timescales. Even though it is challenging to study exoplanets around active stars\, observational constraints of these targets provide crucial insights into our understanding of exoplanet formation and evolution. In this talk\, I will present several benchmark studies of young stars and their planets spanning from the ultraviolet to the infrared. I will present early results of atmospheric follow-up characterization of young short-period exoplanets from my JWST KRONOS program and an overview of our search for atmospheric escape. Finally\, I will highlight the role that stellar flares may play in shaping the evolution of these planets and future steps in understanding these challenging young systems.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:2026 Press Play: Activision Blizzard New Grad Rotation Program
DESCRIPTION:Activision Blizzard is looking for its next cohort of Rotation Managers to join the company Fall 2026. Come learn about the program and participate in live Q&amp\;A with the Recruiters and Program Manager. Rotation Program Overview:Activision Blizzard's Rotation Manager program is a 2-year program that rotates individuals across 3 teams for 8 months at a time. It is an accelerateddevelopment initiative designed to provide participants with unparalleledopportunities for growth\, leadership\, and professional development.  Rotation participants rotate through business-critical roles and functions across the company's various teams and studios. They work on company initiatives that have a direct impact on the bottom line and future success\, while developing connectivity across groups to enable more communication\, knowledge sharing\, and collaboration. The program includes hands-on experience\, mentorship\, and training. Participants are part of a supportive and inclusive community committed to their success\, with regular check-ins\, feedback sessions\, and networking opportunities to ensure theyhave the resources needed to thrive. Some of the programmatic features include a 1-week new hire welcome week that provides a deep dive into the gaming industry and company\; development weeks at the end of each rotation that include report outs around best practices\, case study competitions\, and cohort bonding\; and regular feedback.  Rotation Program Participant Requirements:\nCurrently enrolled in a Master's or PhD program\nGraduating May/June 2026\n3+ years of experience\nAvailable to start program September 7\, 2026\nOpen to working in-person out of Los Angeles or Irvine\, CA (domestic relocation provided if needed)\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Art of Intentional Photography
DESCRIPTION:The goal of the workshop is to shift from “taking photos” to creating images with purpose\, emotion\, and meaning. We’ll explore how to see with intention\, recognize meaningful moments\, and craft photographs that convey story and mood. Whether you’re documenting real-life experiences or creating art from everyday scenes\, you’ll gain practical tools to photograph with authenticity\, clarity\, and purpose.\n\nThis session is designed for anyone interested in exploring photography as a form of creative expression—whether you’re a beginner\, an experienced photographer\, or an artist working in another medium.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations Seminar: From instability to singularity formation in incompressible fluids
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I will first review the singularity formation problem in incompressible fluid dynamics\, describing how particle transport poses the main challenge in constructing blow-up solutions for the incompressible 3d Euler equations. I will then outline a new mechanism that allows us to overcome the effects of particle transport\, leveraging the instability seen in the classical Taylor--Couette experiment. Using this mechanism\, we construct the first swirl-driven singularity for the incompressible Euler equations in R^3. This is joint work with Tarek Elgindi (Duke University).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Synthesizing plant community responses to global change
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - Many global change factors\, such as nitrogen deposition\, herbivore losses\, and species invasions\, are occurring simultaneously worldwide. Ecologists have been tasked with forecasting community and ecosystem responses to these multiple concurrent drivers. My research focuses on plant community responses to multiple global change drivers\, and whether these community shifts drive changes in ecosystem function. I will discuss the results of data synthesis efforts examining global patterns of plant community responses to altered resources and their consequences for primary productivity. The Community Responses to Resource Experiments (CoRRE) database includes 138 experiments from 70 locations globally and 2875 individual plant species with categorical and continuous traits. Through synthesis\, we demonstrate that grassland communities are dynamically changing in their taxonomic\, functional\, and phylogenetic diversity in response to a wide variety of global change drivers\, and that these changes have consequences for ecosystem function.
