man rolling rock up hill how it started how its going
We just wrapped up the 5th Summer Geometry Initiative (SGI), bringing 30 Fellows to our cohort of 150+ alumni, who go on to PhD/MS programs, industry jobs, and more. Despite overwhelming success, SGI26 is uncertain thanks to the changing funding landscape. Please help by helping identify sponsors!
Me on stage at the fast forward session with the title slide visible behind me.

The materials of my graduate school course at #SGP2025 on "Deep Learning on Meshes and Point Clouds" are live on rubenwiersma.nl/deeplearning. A 'map' for 3D deep learning, covering the basics and thoughts on when and where to use deep learning tools in 3D.
We are pleased to announce an open PhD position at the CNR-ISTI
We are looking for a motivated PhD student with a background and interest in 3D Graphics, Geometry Processing, and Machine Learning.

Our #SGP25 work studies a simple and effective way to uniformly sample implicit surfaces by casting rays. (1/9)
“Uniform Sampling of Surfaces by Casting Rays” w/ @abhishekmadan.bsky.social @nmwsharp.bsky.social and Alec Jacobson
MIT News today features a paper with fun examples coming out this summer by our brilliant PhD student Leticia Mattos Da Silva, postdoc—and Columbia professor in a matter of days!— @silviasellan.bsky.social, and PhD student collaborator Natalia Pacheco-Tallaj. news.mit.edu/2025/animati... Flubber!
Selena's #Siggraph25 work found a simple, nearly one-line change that greatly eases neural field optimization for a wide variety of existing representations.
“Stochastic Preconditioning for Neural Field Optimization” by Selena Ling, Merlin Nimier-David, Alec Jacobson, & me.
🔷🦀 TetWeave: Isosurface Extraction using On-The-Fly Delaunay Tetrahedral Grids for Gradient-Based Mesh Optimization is accepted to #SIGGRAPH2025 (TOG).
Done in collaboration with @rubenwiersma.nl, Philipp Herholz, and Olga Sorkine-Hornung.
But why a new shape representation? (1/9)
SGP 2025 is accepting poster submissions! More information here: sgp2025.my.canva.site/submit-page-...
Our final talk: Ed Chien and Ben Jones on computational knitting!
Now Wojciech Jarosz, our keynote, to tell us about Monte Carlo geometry/PDE!
A record number of NESG posters this year!
Now @mandyxmq.bsky.social, sharing her work on optical simulation and inverse rendering!
Next up: Ticha Sethapakdi, helping us bridge between HCI, fabrication, and graphics!
After a brief (5 year 🤔) hiatus, the New England Symposium on Graphics is back! Kudos to our many audience members who got up early on a Saturday to catch @jamestompkin.bsky.social, our first speaker of the day. Not too late to join us! Find a schedule here: nesg.graphics
🚨🚨🚨 Apply now to be part of the 2025 cohort of WiGRAPH rising stars! 🚨🚨🚨
Rising Stars is a mentoring program with workshops co-located with SIGGRAPH for students and post-docs of under-represented genders in graphics research.
Deadline for submissions: Apr 18

I’ll be giving a talk at the New England Symposium on Graphics at MIT this year!
The Symposium on Geometry Processing is an amazing venue for geometry research: meshes, point clouds, neural fields, 3D ML, etc. Reviews are quick and high-quality.
The deadline is in ~10 days. Consider submitting your work, I'm planning to submit!
