In California, there are more than 14,000 miles of urban and rural levees. They protect dry land, cities, towns, homes, businesses, farms and public property from floods. … "On average, they are 57 years old and many of them were built using standards that were much less rigorous than are current building practices," said UC Irvine Climate and Flood Scientist [Professor] Amir AghaKouchak. … "We're not doing enough. Lack of maintenance is one of the biggest issues in my opinion," said AghaKouchak. … "Future earthquake can cause actual collapse and failure," said AghaKouchak.
The Post-Award Team works closely with Principal Investigators (PI), the Office of Research, Beall Applied Innovation (BAI), Contracts & Grants Accounting, Other University Units, and Sponsors to ensure compliance and to provide outstanding support from award set-up through award close-out.
Tom Yuen (’74 electrical engineering) was on dialysis for 42 years, and I’m sad to learn that the serial entrepreneur who cofounded AST Research passed away at age 70 on February 13. But I’m glad to know that he beat the odds on his kidney disease for far longer than doctors expected.
The American Chemical Society featured the mitochondria research being conducted by Professor Peter J. Burke in a recent issue of “Chemical and Engineering News.” Below is an excerpt:
It’s OK to be cautious, but to be so fearful of failure that you stop trying is deleterious. … a panel of successful people discussed failure. The participants were … Michelle Khine, an associate professor of biomedical engineering, chemical engineering and materials science at UC Irvine ... Khine talked about having hundreds of bad ideas in science for every great idea.
The UC Irvine Department of Material Science and Engineering in the Samueli School of Engineering is anticipating openings in the project scientist series throughout the academic year 2025-2026.
