NRG EVgo, America’s leader in Electric Vehicle DC Fast Charging Solutions, has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the University of California, San Diego to help support developments in sustainable energy technology. The agreement formalizes an already strong collaboration focusing on the intersection of electric vehicles and energy storage.
An international team of researchers developed a method that identifies up to twice as many proteins and peptides in mass spectrometry data than conventional approaches. The method can be applied to a range of fields, including clinical settings and fundamental biology research for cancer and other diseases. The key to the new method’s improved performance is its ability to compare data to so-called spectral libraries--essentially a pattern-matching exercise--rather than individual spectra or a database of sequences.
The recently formed Office of Innovation & Commercialization (OIC), a division of the Office of Research Affairs, is announcing the Open-Flow Innovation program, a new business-friendly approach to rapidly license technologies to new start-up companies.
The Healthy Aging Initiative (HAI), a campus-wide effort to investigate and address the diverse challenges and needs of the nation’s aging population, has announced its inaugural research and education seed grants to seven University of California, San Diego faculty members
The class, fittingly called “How to Make a Disaster Movie Based on Real Science,” is a joint production of UC San Diego Extension, Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the Elementary Institute of Science, an organization in Southeast San Diego dedicated to providing STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) education to underserved students in the community.
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego are seeking residents of San Diego County for a study on how the places in which we spend our time (home, work, neighborhoods) affect cancer risk factors. The aim of the “Community of Mine” study is to determine if there is a link between the built environment and biomarkers of cancer risk, such as insulin resistance and inflammation.
