Network with 1000+ California Life Scientists

Posted by Laura Braden on Fri, Nov 20, 2015

Breaking into a new academic marketplace can be a challenge for lab suppliers looking to find new leads due to campus security and labs being unwelcome to solicitors. Attending an on-campus trade show event provides lab suppliers with the best opportunity to display supplies on-campus, to interested and well-funded researchers from campus research laboratories. California is a thriving life science marketplace, supporting some of the largest and most well-funded research institutions in the country.

CIRM Pumps Nearly $3M into Heart of UCSD Bioresearch

Posted by Robert Larkin on Wed, Mar 18, 2015

The best course of action for those affected with congestive heart failure, which affects millions of Americans, is most often a heart valve transplant. Since the condition is so prevalent, however, there are seldom enough donors to meet the rising demand for replacement valves.

Thanks to recent funding given to the University of California, San Diego, those affected by congestive heart failure may have renewed hope in the form of ongoing stem cell bioresearch projects.

Bacteria Prefer to Double Down

Posted by David Larsen on Mon, Feb 16, 2015

A recent study performed by a group of scientists led by Suckjoon Jun of the University of California at San Diego, and including Petra Levin, associate professor of biology at Washington University in St. Louisfound that rather than doubling in size every generation, each bacteria cell added the same volume (or mass; the term reflects the measurement technique). Crucially a cell that was small added the same volume as a cell that was large.
