About us

The Languages, Systems, and Data (LSD) Lab at UC Santa Cruz is a loosely organized federation of CSE students, researchers, and faculty, working in programming languages, systems, databases, and their intersections. We aim to cultivate a community where all of these research traditions can intermingle and benefit from one another.
