Our country's national security depends on the ability of scientists to conduct research to maintain our competitive advantage. Here’s why. ⬇️
"Our way of life depends on secure, reliable access to the maritime domain — above and below the surface," @PdeMenocal of @whoi, @Leinen4ocean of @Scripps_Ocean and @AdmJohnMRichar1 write. "But to lead at sea, we must understand the sea." wapo.st/3TSG8Aq
Big news! @ucdavis and @ucsc are teaming up to create the UC Programs in Medical Education Central Coast. UC PRIME Central Coast will help address the growing healthcare crisis in California, retaining talent in the state and supporting communities that need doctors most.…

Researchers at @UCSF and @GladstoneInst discovered a pair of cancer drugs that successfully treated a model of severe Alzheimer’s disease. ucsf.edu/news/2025/07/4…
Researchers from UCSF discovered two FDA-approved cancer drugs appear to slow, or even reverse, memory loss. ktvu.com/video/1678554?…
You don’t need new UC research to know it's getting hotter—but you might need new @NSF-funded UC research to know there’s a way it can feel up to 10 degrees cooler outside. @UCLA researchers are using new techniques to bring more shade to outdoor spaces. bit.ly/3GU9jjv
From the internet to the ozone layer, AI to the human genome, UC scientists have turned federal research funding into history-making, economy-boosting solutions #SpeakUp4Science bit.ly/4eV96cm
Today, genomics is saving countless lives and even entire species, thanks to the spirit of collaborative and open science that @ucsc scientists helped promote. bit.ly/40kV126
@UCBerkeley scientist James Allison's Nobel Prize-winning research on how T-cells fight disease—laying the foundation for immunotherapy as the fourth pillar of cancer care—couldn't have happened without NIH funding #SpeakUp4Science bit.ly/44eYWye
.@UCSF researchers created the world’s first shape-shifting synthetic protein by leveraging AI. The new proteins could block existing ones from causing disease, and eventually, they could be used as medicine—just like GLP1s or insulin. #SpeakUp4Science bit.ly/44wtmfR
The UC developed a new data tool to show where tens of thousands of alumni work in California and the skills those employers seek. cal.news/4eVSnFK 📸 Larry Valenzuela
.@UCIrvine researchers are bringing science fiction to life. The project, funded by @DARPA and the @usairforce, created bio-inspired materials that could be used for adaptive camouflage, smart textiles, and more, adjusting appearance based on stimuli. 🤯 #SpeakUp4Science…
