The University of California, Davis, is awarding $450,000 to help scientists advance compelling research and innovations toward commercial applications through two proof-of-concept grant programs. To date, these programs have delivered $2.9 million to help campus innovators overcome the primary hurdle of access to funding during one of the most challenging phases in new technology development. TheScience Translation and Innovative Research(STAIR) grant program provides awards of up to $50,000 to campus innovators to enable demonstration of early proof-of-concept for technologies being developed at the university.

Enlarge / A plasma donor is connected to an apheresis machine, which separates plasma from blood as people donate blood plasma for medicines, at the Twickenham Donor Centre, southwest London on April 7, 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic is considered by many experts to be a mass disabling event. Though most people fully recover from a battle with the highly infectious coronavirus, a significant chunk of patients develop lingering, sometimes debilitating symptomsaka long COVID Continue reading →

The new multi-organ chip has the size of a glass microscope slide and allows the culture of up to four human engineered tissues, whose location and number can be tailored to the question being asked. These tissues are connected by vascular flow, but the presence of a selectively permeable endothelial barrier maintains their tissue-specific niche. Credit: Kacey Ronaldson-Bouchard/Columbia Engineering Major advance from Columbia Engineering team demonstrates the first multi-organ chip made of engineered human tissues linked by vascular flow for improved modeling of systemic diseases like cancer Continue reading →

For 2 years, physicians and scientists have puzzled over the cardiovascular complications from COVID-19, but new proteomics research is helping to shed light on some of the biological mechanisms driving this heightened risk. Continue reading →

By Dan Hurley May 5, 2022 The Science Explained Article In Brief Researchers tracked the link between cardiovascular disease (CVD) and dementia for approximately 25 years, finding that individuals whose CVD risk factors increase sharply over a period of years and decades are more than three times more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease or vascular dementia than are people whose CVD risk remains relatively steady. Our experts said the results demonstrate the need to pay greater attention to patients' CVD risk factors Continue reading →
