UC Davis is searching for new and more effective methods to deal with oral cancer.

UC Davis is working to help rectify the damage done by the oil spill that occurred in the Gulf Coast over three weeks ago - a cause of great concern among the scientific community due to its potential impact on wildlife.

This past weekend, limnology students partook on an adventure-filled annual excursion to Castle Lake.

A new partnership formed by the UC Davis Cancer Center and the Jackson Laboratory Cancer Center (JAX) could help find better and more effective cures to cancer. This recent consortium will allow for a greater array of testing, as researchers from both institutes will have larger quantities of mice and tumors to test.

Researchers at UC Davis are developing new ways to aid those that are disabled. New studies are bringing forth revelations that could potentially make transportation and social independence much easier for both disabled children and adults. These studies could prove vital in convenience, reliability and affordability for the disabled. If successfully implemented, researchers Sanjay Joshi and Anthony Wexler feel that it could drastically help the severely disabled - generally quadriplegics - operate wheelchairs, be more independent and allow for them to be more comfortable with their required machinery.

New research at UC Davis is revealing new ways to extend both plant and fruit life.

The recent release of recommendations for computer configurations from UC Davis's Information and Education Technology department outlines what specifications students should have to achieve maximum functionality. The list, the Recommended Computer Configurations for 2010-2011, has key changes from previous versions. It orients students to have more RAM (random-access memory), bigger hard-drives and a new operating system (for both Macs and PCs). Outdated computers run the risk of not meeting campus cyber security policy, and not achieving desirable functionality both on and off campus.
