Vince Buffalo, a professor of evolution and ecology, uses genomic data to detect when a population of organisms rapidly adapts to new environments. His work helps ecologists and evolutionary biologists better understand rapid evolution at a genetic level. #Population #Genetics

Election Day is today! You can find ballot drop-off and Voting Assistance Center information at aggiesvote.ucdavis.edu. Get out there and cast your votes, Aggies!

In the greenhouse of the Katherine Esau Science Hall (formerly the Sciences Lab Building), students and staff grow tropical pitcher plants. #Greenhouse #Tropicalplants #Plants

We’d like to thank those who have served in the armed forces for their dedication and sacrifice for our nation. Veterans and families of the UC Davis community can receive assistance from the UC Davis Veterans Success Center. Find more here: bit.ly/3EgQzqj

Did you know that plant biologists research ways that plants resist pests and disease? This can help lead to new varieties of crop plants, such as bean plants, that are less affected by common pathogens. #Beanplants #Greenhouse #Plants

Congrats to Rachael Bay and her lab for their outstanding efforts toward laboratory safety! The Bay Lab will receive $6,000 to support laboratory operations. biology.ucdavis.edu/news/rachael-b…

There is great biodiversity on campus. Here, a student gets hands-on experience with a carp as part of a research project investigating how the fish affect water quality. #Water #Fish #ExperentialLearning

UC Davis is a collaborating partner in a new European effort to use DNA data to characterize and conserve life on Earth. bit.ly/3Anv4Sc

One of the (many) beautiful plants you can find in the botanical conservatory on campus. The conservatory is home to more than 4,000 species of plants. #Plants #Conservatory

It's the time of year where we safely gather with our loved ones, celebrate old memories and new beginnings, and thank those around us for their kindness and support. #Grateful

Evolution, ecology and biodiversity (EEB) majors get lots of different hands-on learning experiences in the college. Here, an EEB major bands and weighs young tree swallows as part of a study to preserve the birds that frequently visit the creek. #Wildlife #Birds

Under the right living arrangement, disease-resistant corals can help “rescue” corals that are more vulnerable to disease, according to a new study from the Department of Evolution and Ecology. #MarineBiology #CoralReef #Diversity #Ocean Anya Brown bit.ly/3GTTCq8

Students, staff, and faculty have worked together to create the Joseph and Emma Lin Biological Orchard and Gardens, a living museum highlighting the biodiversity on campus. Today, the garden is a perfect area for students to study in a peaceful area. #Garden #Orchard #Study

I'm thrilled to share *the first paper from my lab* in eLife - the journal: doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… Wonderful collaboration with UC Davis Physiology's Vladimir Y-Y & starring Flavia Franco (now back to ESALQ/USP), Pingxi Xu & Brandon Harris. UC Davis's synergy between Biological Sciences & UCDavisMedSchool

The life and work of plant biologist Simon Chan (1974-2012) will be celebrated at a special UC Davis symposium Jan. 19. More info and registration link: bit.ly/3iby3HP Biological Sciences

Center for Neuroscience researchers unravel the mysteries of the brain to advance healthcare, find therapies and cures for neurological and psychiatric disorders and inspire the development of transformational new technologies. #Neuroscience #Cerebellum

John Harada, a professor emeritus in the Department of Plant Biology, says that "seeds feed the planet." According to Harada, researchers estimate that 75 percent of the calories consumed by humans come from seeds. #Study #Seeds

It was fantastic having Genentech's Senior Engineer Alan Lancaster speaking to my Biological Sciences' biochem class today. UC Davis students now know that what we have been learning in class is critical to the pharmaceutical industry in producing life-saving drugs.

In my UC Davis biochem class students were asked in MT2 to name a peptide. The correct answer was GARYMAY. Not all students got it right, so I invited Gary S. May to come visit. He had more biochem questions for them. UCDavis_Egghead Dateline UC Davis youtu.be/u79yNfgmRlY
