UC Davis researchers Kwan-Liu Ma and Dongyu Liu aim to improve collaboration in fields like emergency management by investigating how ambiguity in data visualization affects high-stakes decision-making.
As the first academic research facility in the U.S. dedicated to coffee, the UC Davis Coffee Center is brewing up serious science. From roasting chemistry to flavor perception, Professor Bill Ristenpart talks with Atlas Obscura about the center’s mission to uncover what makes the perfect cup.
The research team led by Professor Bruce Gates at the UC Davis Department of Chemical Engineering is interested in making platinum catalysts that are highly efficient and stable during chemical reactions.
In the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC Davis, a one-of-a-kind hub for vacuum electronic devices allows a community of researchers to build upon the past to discover the future.
Renewable energy sources like wind and solar need a storage system capable of charging and discharging to relieve the power grid. Instead of building new infrastructure, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering imagines a system built from half-used EV batteries.
UC Davis engineers are investigating new ways to feed a growing population, from fungus-grown jerky to cultivated beef and sustainable systems for wine and coffee.
Dean Richard L. Corsi sits down with Professor of Computer Science Ian Davidson and Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Chen-Nee Chuah to discuss the current and near-future roles of artificial intelligence and its real and anticipated implications for society.
This summer, a multidisciplinary group of undergraduate students participated in a biomanufactured foods research challenge. Now, they are taking their project — turning agricultural waste into food using fungi — to Washington, D.C.
