On August 15, 2024, ACTION AI was one of fifteen undergraduate summer research programs across UC Santa Barbara gathered for a research symposium and poster session. In total, there were 65 posters on display, spanning engineering, the sciences, and the social sciences. The symposium marked the end of an eight-week research experience, full of hands-on training, professional development, and networking opportunities for our scholars. Visitors from out of town stayed at the San Joaquin Village apartments, managed by UCSB's Conference and Hospitality Services.
ACTION supported 15 participants (one high school, 10 undergraduate, and four graduate students) collaborating on four posters. Their posters, abstracts, and project photos are all available here. We want to congratulate our interns on a job well done.
We also want to thank Sofi Sanabria-Guillen and the staff at UCSB's Center for Engineering Science Partnerships (CSEP) for their tireless work over the summer, and for making this event so impactful. We are looking forward to 2025.
