With the anticipation of Data Science activities in full swing at UC Davis, in Fall 2020, our campus decided to renovate the first floor and basement of the former Physical Sciences and Engineering Library (PSEL) for the use of campus-wide Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (AI) related activities. The renovation was finally completed in December 2023.

I retired on July 1, 2019 and immediately started a long trip: seven countries in seven months. (I had needed to stay in Davis since 2012.) I visited the Simons Center (Stony Brook, NY), the Institute for Theoretical Physics (Sao Paulo, Brazil), IHES (Bures-sur-Yvette, France), Skolkovo (Moscow, Russia), MPIM (Bonn, Germany), a conference in Luxembourg, Hebrew University (Jerusalem, Israel), Weizmann Institute (Rehovot, Israel), and University of Warwick (UK).
