SUMMARY:Guest Lecture
DESCRIPTION:“Beyond the Valley: The Challenges and Promises of a People-Centered Internet”by Ramesh SrinivasanAbstract: The past 20 years have profound the impact is of digital technologies to connect our world. What we may not have expected is how these technologies did not shape ‘connectivity’ but became so central in everyday life. From our economic systems to how we receive news\, to how we automate the future\, technological intermediaries have interwoven themselves into everyday life\, not just in the West but across the world. But in whose image are these forms of connectivity created\, and how can we ensure that there is appropriate balance between the values we aspire toward as human-beings with the ways we build and design such systems? This talk will be a sneak preview of some material from Srinivasan’s third book\, which is built upon research conducted with leading figures in politics\, economics\, and culture/across the world. Srinivasan will share insights around how our future is being shaped by the decisions we make with technology right here and now.

SUMMARY:UCLA Department of Statistics Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Kirk E. LohmuellerDepartment of Ecology and Evolutionary BiologyUCLAWhy do deleterious mutations persist in populations?Many mutations that arise in protein coding regions of genes are deleterious\, resulting in a decrease in reproductive fitness. While such mutations are often eliminated from the population by natural selection\, sometimes they can remain. In this talk I will examine the population genetic factors leading to the accumulation of deleterious mutations. First I will use Wright-Fisher population genetic simulations to show how recent demographic history has affected patterns of deleterious variation across different human populations. Second\, I will present an analysis of deleterious genetic variation across dog and wolf populations using more than 80 genomes. I will describe a maximum likelihood approach to estimate heterozygosity from next-generation sequencing data that we used on these low-coverage genomes. These data show that the ratio of amino-acid changing to silent genetic variants is significantly higher in dogs than wolves\, suggesting that\, compared to the reduction of neutral levels of variation\, less deleterious variation has been removed than expected. Finally\, I will show how the artificial selection for specific traits during domestication and breed formation has affected patterns of deleterious variation in dogs. In sum\, this work demonstrates how population history and strong positive selection can shape deleterious variation across genomes.

SUMMARY:BEC Speaker Series: Aurelio Figueredo - "A Sequential Canonical Cascade Model of Social and Cognitive Biogeography"
DESCRIPTION:Aurelio FigueredoUniversity of Arizona\, Department of Psychology “A Sequential Canonical Cascade Model of Social and Cognitive Biogeography” “A sequential canonical cascade model\, detailing the hypothesized biogeography of human life history (LH) and intelligence (IQ)\, derives elevated levels of IQ through a series of causal steps\, starting with the evolution of slower LH strategies based on both the physical ecology (climatological factors) and community ecology (population density and parasite burden). This model then examines the social ecology of slow LH strategy through the establishment of cooperative and mutualistic social systems with enhanced levels of social equality\, within-group and between-group peace\, and sexual equality. These social sequelae\, in turn\, lead to the strategic differentiation of resource allocation profiles among slower LH strategists (the SD-IE effect) that foster socioecological niche-splitting through intraspecific character displacement and produce mutual competitive release among individuals in saturated\, resource-limited environments. By producing cooperative systems of specialists that each efficiently exploit different social micro-niches\, the mutual exchange of resources so derived inevitably triggers the action of Ricardo’s Law of Comparative Advantage\, producing greater aggregate wealth through these emergent social properties than would otherwise be attainable to equal numbers of generalists. We track this hypothesized mediating mechanism through the relations among three major macroeconomic indicators at the national level of aggregation. Finally\, we explain how this combination of powerful macroeconomic forces inevitably produces massive increases in aggregate wealth that elevate the collective human capital of the entire society\, enhances physical brain volume\, and contributes to higher overall levels of human cognitive abilities.” 12:00-1:30 PM Monday June 1st\, 2015Haines Hall 352Lunch will be served on a first come\, first serve basis; we request a $6 donation.

SUMMARY:Comm Studies Application
DESCRIPTION:Application ProcedureThe Communication Studies Application will be available on June 1\, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. and will close on June 30\, 2015 at 4:00 p.m.The Admissions Committee will arrange to receive your UCLA transcripts from the Registrar through the end of Summer Session A 2015.  General Information Students not admitted at the sophomore or junior level may reapply the following year. If you have 140 units or more\, please consult with a counselor before applying. Prospective double majors must be independently accepted into the CS Department; there is no automatic acceptance. The Admissions Committee gives detailed attention to every application it receives\, and its decisions each year are final.  Other than to correct an error in the information it originally evaluated\, the Admissions Committee is not able to comply with appeals from applicants for a second review.Please DO NOT submit letters of recommendation — they will not be accepted.Dear prospective Comm Studies majors:We are delighted to announce a major improvement in the way in which UCLA students apply to the Comm Studies major. As you already know\, Comm Studies has been one of the most sought-after majors at UCLA since its creation nearly 40 years ago\, with more and more outstanding students applying each year. Choosing our students from among the very best people at UCLA has been our privilege\, but also our great challenge\, so we have decided to improve our admissions decisions by…Giving students an incentive to take more challenging courses prior to entering the major. In our discussions with students\, many told us that they had delayed taking difficult classes prior to applying for fear that receiving a lower grade might harm their chances of getting into the major–a strategy that had the unfortunate effect of making them less prepared for some of the difficult courses within the major. To ensure that students are well-prepared for the major\, we have adjusted the way we evaluate the GPA of applicants\, ensuring that students who take challenging courses are not penalized compared to students who take so-called “Easy A” classes.Getting to know you beyond grades. While our traditional application process has relied heavily on looking at your performance in UCLA courses\, our new process will give you a chance to make a case for your admission through a series of very concise essays. The essay questions –presented below– give us a chance to better understand your experiences\, attitude\, accomplishments\, and connection to Comm Studies. One of the most important parts of the new application is a chance for you to impress us with your best work by uploading a short creative work sample.Letting you make your case… in person: While the many applicants will still be selected and notified online before the start of Fall Quarter\, our admission process will now allow some students to make their case in face-to-face interviews with an admissions committee at the start of Fall Quarter. We think giving our admissions advisory committee a chance to hear our applicants communicate will allow us to better understand how they could flourish in Comm Studies.These changes represent a lot of additional work for our applicants–and ourselves–but we truly believe they will give great students the best opportunities to be admitted to our great major. We look forward to hearing from you soon!Essay Questions:In your application\, you will be asked to tell us in no more than 750 characters (each):Why do you want to be a Communication Studies major?Communication Studies is a highly selective major. Tell us briefly why you believe you should be chosen for the major.Communication Studies is a challenging major. Tell us briefly how you have overcome obstacles or adversity to achieve a goal.Communication Studies is a diverse major. Tell us briefly how you would contribute to that diversity.Communication Studies majors are leaders. Tell us briefly about a specific instance where you have successfully led others to achieve a goal.Communication Studies is a creative major. Tell us briefly about a project\, short movie\, writing sample\, or other creative work you have completed of which you are especially proud.Creative Work:All applicants must upload a sample of your creative work for a valid application.  A sample can be any format or type (e.g.\, special project\, short film\, blog\, research project\, writing sample\, photo(s)\, audio file) you like\, but should be something uniquely creative or exceptional. (We will also ask you to tell us about the project and explain why you are especially proud of it).
