UC ANR welcomes AES faculty at UC Merced, UC Santa Cruz
Since President Drake announced the expansion of the UC Agricultural Experiment Station (AES), we have partnered with UC Merced and UC Santa Cruz leadership to integrate these two campuses into our UC ANR network.
We are excited to share that their founding AES faculty have started new AES projects as of this federal fiscal year, which started Oct. 1. See list below.
Please join us in welcoming them to the UC ANR network and reach out to grow our collaborations.
