Earlier this month we kicked off #NationalHispanicHeritageMonth, which is celebrated annually from September 15 to October 15.
We spoke with recent biological sciences grad Mili Jimenez, former president of the @ncstate chapter of the Society for Advancement of Chicanos/Hispanics & Native Americans in Science (@sacnas.ncsu), about the organization and its work creating a community among Hispanic students on campus. 🤝
The inaugural College of Sciences Excellence Symposium was a great success! 🤗
We saw faculty, staff and students come together from across the college to share ideas and promote interdisciplinary collaboration in teaching and research.
William Ditto, professor of @ncstate_physics, is a co-corresponding author of a new study to see if artificial intelligence would choose diversity over the lack of diversity and if its choice would improve the performance of the AI. 🤖
It was found that an AI with the ability to look inward and fine tune its own neural network performs better when it chooses diversity over lack of diversity.
