Tripods might be popular in science fiction, but there are no truly three-limbed animals, living or extinct, on Earth. Tracy Thomson has been thinking about why that may be, and the value of considering what evolution cannot do.
Ecosystems dominated by high-powered competitors are more efficient at recycling nutrients than low-powered systems, argues UC Davis paleontologist Geerat Vermeij in a new paper. The idea ties together evolution and ecology, and explains how ecosystems may have evolved to become more efficient since life appeared on Earth.…
When Biswanath Mukherjee came to UC Davis in 1987, the only telephones were landlines and the internet was something for academics and scientists. Now his work on networks -- including the first network firewall, demonstrated in his lab -- has anticipated multibillion dollar industries.
UC Davis paleontologist Ryosuke Motani and Chinese colleagues recently described a new and curious fossil. The 250 million-year-old animal was a marine reptile that seems to have lived much like the modern platypus, hunting by touch in dark or muddy water with its sensitive snout.

Mathematics is the language of the universe, and mathematicians can use this language to help people better understand the world. I talked to some UC Davis mathematicians about the problems they work on and why they are important. From quantum computers to the movement of subatomic particles and microorganisms swimming through fluids, it’s a journey that takes in Ancient Greece, the lining of your lungs, dead ends in 19th century physics and artificial intelligence.

A year ago this week, a series of fires broke out in Napa, Sonoma, and Mendocino counties, one of California’s best-known wine growing regions. While 90 percent of the grapes in Napa County had been harvested, a few vineyards still had grapes on the vine, including at the UC Davis experimental station in Oakville. Wildfire smoke can ruin wine. Anita Oberholster, a viticulture and enology extension specialist at UC Davis has been researching so-called smoke taint, in hopes of finding ways to mitigate the effects.…
Traumatic experiences, such as maltreatment as children, can influence how our mind and body react to stressful situations. UC Davis psychologist Paul Hastings and colleagues at the University of Washington have shown that intensive training for parents referred to Child Protective Services can improve physiological reactions to stress in their young children.…
We know that previous experience can affect how we remember things, but how does this work at a molecular level? UC Davis neuroscientist Brian Wiltgen talks about previous work showing how new memories can build on existing networks.
Spinal injuries are life changing, but research is showing that the body is better than thought at adapting to and recovering from injury. UC Davis bioengineer Karen Moxon talks about how therapies can help rats can take steps after spinal injury. More information: https://www.ucdavis.edu/news/working-around-spinal-injuries…
UC Davis biologist Harris Lewin talks about the Earth BioGenome Project, an ambitious effort to sequence the DNA of all complex life on Earth. The organizers plan to make the data available for research while also making sure source countries and traditional owners benefit.
For Judy Callis, teaching is about helping students make connections, between the biochemistry they learn in her lectures, what they have learned in other classes and their own life experiences. Now Callis, a biochemist who studies the ubiquitin protein system in plants, has been awarded the UC Davis Prize for Undergraduate Teaching and Scholarly Achievement, UC Davis top prize for teaching.…
20 years ago Putah Creek near the UC Davis campus was a dry, trash-filled ditch. Then a lawsuit led to the Putah Creek Accord, which mandated year-round water flows to help protect fish and habitat. Kat Kerlin hears how restoring water has brought the creek back to life.
Glass and wine have gone together for thousands of years. A new book, "The Glass of Wine" by Jim and Penelope Shackelford, explores the science, history and artistry that goes into this perfect pairing.
