After 15 years of study and some 90 reports, researchers have unearthed solutions to cleaning up the Le Sueur River and its tributaries. For so long, scientific disagreements or political divides made solutions elusive. … The latest study, by the University of Minnesota, University of Kansas and University of California-Irvine, showed the best and most cost effective way to reduce sediment and nitrogen runoff would be wetland restoration.

Enevate was co-founded in 2005 by UCI Professor Marc Madou and current CTO [Benjamin] Park, who has a Ph.D. in mechanical and aerospace engineering from UCI. [Subscription required, you can request an electronic copy of the article by sending an email to communications@uci.edu.] Read More
Environmental Engineering involves designing environmental protection or remediation strategies for multiple resources-water, air, and soil, often with combinations of physical chemical, and biological treatment methods in the context of a complex regulatory framework.
Thomas Yuen spent the final decades of his life funding and promoting stem-cell therapy research, in hopes of finding treatments for chronic diseases like the one that runs in his family. He donated to the University of California, Irvine’s stem research department and spared no expense outfitting his own R&D firm, PrimeGen Biotech, which has been accumulating stem-cell patents since 2004 …. Mr. Yuen immigrated to America and attended community college before transferring to UC Irvine to study electrical engineering. [Subscription required, campus-wide access provided by UCI Libraries.
