UC Riverside computer scientists identify major security weaknesses in the Wi-Fi networks we rely on at work, at home, in airports, and in coffee shops, among other locations. Even the most advanced “enterprise-grade” encryption systems used by universities and corporations were found to be vulnerable.

UC Riverside researchers have developed an oxygen-delivering gel capable of healing injuries that might otherwise progress to limb loss. 

UCR-led study finds that tiny, invisible gases long thought to be irrelevant in cloud formation appear to play a major role in determining whether clouds form—and possibly whether it rains. This realization runs counter to more than a century of assumptions about the physics behind cloud droplet formation.

Georgios Karavalakis, a UCR professor of chemical and environmental engineering, has been elected a Fellow of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) International, one of the highest honors in the mobility engineering field.

UC Riverside will welcome Tsu-Jae King Liu, president of the National Academy of Engineering, for a public lecture set for Friday, Feb. 6. Liu’s talk is the inaugural event in the Provost’s Lecture Series, an annual program hosting prominent scholars in the fall, winter, and spring quarters.
