UC Riverside research used internet data mining to monitor health effects reported by electronic cigarette users over time
Nitrogen pollution, largely from automobile exhaust, can reduce drinking water quality and make air difficult to breathe. Thanks to a $1.1 million grant, UC Riverside scientists will soon understand how much nitrogen dry ecosystems in Southern California can absorb before they produce negative effects. “Levels of nitrogen pollution in Riverside’s...
The licensed technology is a tipping point for emerging lifesaving therapies
Calculations by UC Riverside’s Allen Mills predict metastable positronium bubbles in liquid helium
UC Riverside physics students design a table-top experiment for the classroom
Researchers use nontoxic silicon nanocrystals to convert low-energy photons into high-energy ones, bringing scientists closer to developing photodynamic treatments for cancer
New big data algorithms improve earthquake detection; monitor livestock health and agricultural pests
The world’s most influential scientific researchers in 2019 include 10 current UCR scholars. In its annual list, Clarivate Analytics names the most highly cited researchers — those whose work was most often referenced by other scientific research papers for the preceding decade in 21 fields across the sciences and social...
Image processing algorithms on satellite images show how sea ice drift affects freshwater flux in Arctic Ocean currents
Device can mass-produce engineered cells at lower cost, a tipping point for emerging lifesaving therapies
A new understanding of a fault that caused a deadly 7.8 magnitude earthquake can help scientists better predict where and when the next big one will hit. For decades, scientists have debated the structure of the Main Himalayan Thrust — the fault responsible for a 2015 earthquake that killed nearly...
UC Riverside-led study could lead to the development of drugs that target liver and other cancers
Contrary to previous thought, a gigantic planet in wild orbit does not preclude the presence of an Earth-like planet in the same solar system – or life on that planet. What’s more, the view from that Earth-like planet as its giant neighbor moves past would be unlike anything it is...
UC Riverside-led team overcomes a stumbling block in this relatively new technology
The shape and architecture of collagen and elastin fibers can improve our understanding of lung diseases, including the one associated with vaping
Work by international research team could have wide-ranging impact on information technology applications
A UC Riverside-led team has created a chemical to help plants hold onto water, which could stem the tide of massive annual crop losses from drought and help farmers grow food despite a changing climate. “Drought is the No. 1 cause, closely tied with flooding, of annual crop failures worldwide,”...
UC Riverside-led research on fruit fly could lead to better understanding of how taste information is coded in the brain
UC Riverside-led research could aid regenerative stem cell therapies
The American Institute of Physics Journal, Chaos chose electrical and computer engineering assistant research professor Hossein Taheri’s paper as the Editor’s Pick. His publication “Synchronization behavior in a ternary phase model” was cited as a source for the “Nonlinear dynamics used to examine the ternary model of laser phase mode...
