Citrus greening has made its way to Riverside and is spreading. The L.A. Times features UCR researchers fighting to protect the 22-acre Citrus Variety Collection

Study co-led by UC Riverside scientist could help develop strategies to combat the disease

A new UC Riverside study concludes the longer your commute, the more you're exposed to a chemical flame retardant that is a known carcinogen, phased out of furniture use because it required a Proposition 65 warning label in California.

XMM-2599 lived fast and died young, says UC Riverside-led international team

Excess selenium from fertilizers and other natural sources can create air pollution that could lead to lung cancer, asthma, and Type 2 diabetes, according to new UC Riverside research.

New research from UC Riverside shows, contrary to previous scientific belief, a hormone required for sexual maturity in insects cannot travel across the blood-brain barrier unless aided by a transporter protein. The finding may soon allow scientists to prevent disease-spreading mosquitoes from maturing, or to boost reproduction in beneficial bumblebees.
