Professor of Chemical Engineering Adam Moulé and his lab have developed a novel method of patterning semiconducting polymers, a notoriously difficult material, using existing tools, paving the way for endless possibilities for sensors and optics.
At UC Davis, the chemical engineering Ph.D. student and iCAMP researcher aims to lower the production costs of cultivated meat, making it a sustainable, affordable solution for a global problem.
UC Davis researchers partnered with Oak Ridge National Laboratory to design a new device that can use neutrons to measure molecules in optically excited states. It's a potential game-changer to study materials that will increase the efficiency of photovoltaic solar cells.
A professor and alum of UC Davis collaborated with researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to develop a rotating sample holder that enables new types of neuron experiments.
The Ahn Lab in the Department of Chemical Engineering is pioneering groundbreaking tools for new research that could lead to more effective pain therapies.
The University of California, Davis, is leading the establishment of a new Integrative Center for Alternative Meat and Protein, or iCAMP. The center will work toward large-scale commercialization and technological advancement of alternative proteins, including cultivated meat (from animal cells grown in large fermentors), plant- and fungal-based foods, and innovative hybrids that combine conventional meat products with alternative proteins.
As researchers look for new ways to help slow a changing climate and mitigate the effects of a fossil fuel-based energy system, UC Davis professor Ambarish Kulkarni and his team of researchers are using chemical engineering to find sustainable solutions.
Chemical engineering researchers at UC Davis could make exploring treatments for cancer, viruses and neurodegenerative disorders more efficient with a new approach to pairing imaging techniques and analysis.
We developed The Design of Coffee as a freshman seminar for 18 students in 2013, and, since then, the course has grown to over 2,000 general education students per year at the University of California, Davis.
It’s a scorching summer morning at UC Davis, but inside a laboratory at Everson Hall, about 20 students are busy brewing hot cups of joe. They’ve just completed a competition to brew the perfect cup of coffee — and earned college credits at the same time.
