With a quick leaf scan, the AI-powered Leaf Monitor delivers real-time nutrient insights for crops. By replacing weeks-long lab tests, the new tool, developed by UC Davis engineers, can help farmers boost yields, cut fertilizer waste and manage fields with precision and sustainability.
UC Davis researchers have created a miniaturized microscope for real-time, high-resolution imaging of brain activity in mice. The device is a significant step toward revolutionizing how neuroscientists study behavior and perception in the brain.
Using total-body PET imaging to get a better understanding of long COVID disease is the goal of a new project at the University of California, Davis, in collaboration with UC San Francisco. The project is funded by a grant of $3.2 million over four years from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health.

Thrilling Progress in Brain-Computer Interfaces from UC Labs
Tyler Singer-Clark, a Ph.D. student in biomedical engineering, shone a spotlight on twenty years of UC Davis research to restore speech to those with paralysis. He also discussed his work to enable control of a computer mouse with the same brain-computer interface. “Users don’t have to choose between speech or computer control,” he said.
