In an open letter, deans and faculty members recommit to promoting diversity.

The program, called SuEIR, takes into account the number of cases categorized as susceptible, unreported, exposed, infectious and recovered.

Achieving net-zero emissions in California by 2050 can prevent thousands of deaths annually, researchers say.

The team proposed a redesign of certain elements of a Los Angeles elementary school to improve its environmental sustainability.

The shields can be mass-produced using laser cutting and 3D injection molding, giving quick relief to health workers battling the pandemic.

Bioengineering professor Jacob Schmidt is working with Douglas Daniels, director of the Lux Labs at the UCLA Library, to manufacture face shields.

“The advance is like the transition from black-and-white TV to color TV,” said UCLA professor Aydogan Ozcan.

With financial assistance from the cast and crew of the TV show, Jonathan Shi is planning a career in medicine to give back to his community.

Mackenzie, professor emeritus of materials science and engineering at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering, died Feb. 19. He was 94.

Kleinrock was awarded the campus’s highest honor for his contributions in providing the intellectual foundation for the modern technical age.

Alumnae Patricia Coleman James and Coretta Harris, along with current student Imani Elston, discuss the early days and how the chapter has evolved.

Advanced statistical techniques enabled UCLA researchers to look backward in time hundreds of thousands of years without fossil DNA.

The patch significantly prolonged survival and reduced the growth of tumors in mice.

Invented by researchers from UCLA and China, the coating was inspired by a natural mechanism that keeps blood from freezing in some fish species.

The cross-disciplinary institute involving Engineering and the School of Law will examine advances in artificial intelligence, autonomous vehicles, robotics and new forms of digital media to identify their benefits and risks.

The key is a new catalyst: copper with a few atoms of the precious metal ruthenium.

Thanks to an advance by UCLA engineers, the two-wing structure could soon be used to make windmills that harvest energy more efficiently.

Report from Web of Science Group identifies researchers in 21 fields whose work was most often referenced by other papers.

The research is the most comprehensive study to date investigating the potential future scale and cost of 10 different ways to use carbon dioxide.

A who’s who of computer scientists, engineers, technologists, activists and thinkers gathered at UCLA to celebrate the internet’s 50th birthday.

The event is being held exactly a half century after a team led by UCLA professor Leonard Kleinrock sent the first message over the Arpanet — the precursor to today’s internet.

A version of the technology, set up on the roof of a home, could provide enough power overnight to charge a cell phone or to light a room with LED bulbs.

UCLA engineering professor Ximin He said the design could be adapted to use other forms of energy — acoustic waves, or electronic or magnetic signals, for example.

The advance could lead to more reliable analytical tools for biochemical laboratories and environmental monitoring.

The new process creates a material that’s at least five times tougher than any glass currently available.
