Researchers at the University of California, Davis, are taking the phrase “follow your gut” to a whole new level: They’re creating microfluidic technology that can map out and probe the neural pathways that form the gut-brain axis for the first time.
The Ahn Lab in the Department of Chemical Engineering is pioneering groundbreaking tools for new research that could lead to more effective pain therapies.
The UC Davis Center for Nano-MicroManufacturing is among two centers and two labs led by electrical and computer engineering faculty that are crucial to the $15M U.S. CHIPS and Science Act partnership to advance semiconductor technologies for AI.
New research published in Physical Review Letters shows how an experiment with lasers and magnets resulted in the domain walls within ferromagnetic layers moving at previously unheard-of speeds, paving the way for more sustainable and energy-efficient data storage.
Professor Saif Islam has received the 2024 SPIE Aden and Marjorie Meinel Technology Achievement Award for his influential advancements in ultrafast and highly efficient photodetectors.
Materials science and engineering professor Marina Leite has received $1 million to make switchable photonic devices more efficient with hybrid perovskites, a class of materials with physical properties that can be controlled through light alone.
In cell therapies, regenerating tissues often must be damaged to know if the treatment is working. Jinhwan Kim wants to remedy that with non-invasive, real-time monitoring of cellular function and health.
Electrical and computer engineering faculty from UC Davis are part of Northwest AI Hub, a new center funded by the CHIPS and Science Act to advance semiconductor technologies.
Biomedical engineers at UC Davis have come up with a new tool for tracing interactions between proteins. The new, light-activated tool could have wide applications in cell biology.
The new, UC Davis-developed sensor can detect vibrations a thousand times smaller and movement a hundred times smaller than a strand of human hair. It's also just a stepping stone to an even smaller, more powerful sensor.
