For #UCSB's Jesse Landesman, avocados—one of California's favorite crops—are the main focus.
In studying how elevated soil salinity impacts avocados, her goal is to use science to help solve the real-world problems farmers face.

Who really “invented” the iPhone?
Universities. Specifically, key technology underlying the iPhone can be attributed to scientists at @ucberkeleyofficial @udelaware and @stanford.
All of these inventions have one common thread: Federal Funding for Science. #SpeakUp4Science
🌿 Federal funding powers #UCANR innovation!

The 2025 Nobel Prizes highlight the revolutionary, life changing discoveries that are only possible because of federal funding for science. UC President James B. Milliken explains what's at stake 👇 #SpeakUp4Science youtu.be/EV4ZmSTVMN8?...
These researchers are among the five affiliated with the University of California that were awarded Nobel Prizes this year. This is a record-breaking achievement.
UC researchers are leading the way in advancing society through scientific inquiry and exploration. That is why we #SpeakUp4Science.

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is almost 100% deadly in cats. But thanks to federally funded research, cats like Lychee can get a second chance at life. Even better yet, the treatment for FIP could one day help humans suffering from long COVID. #FromLabsToLives #SpeakUp4Science
Federal research funding is crucial.
More funding means faster treatments, cleaner air and water, and safer communities. But when funding freezes, progress stalls and costs soar.
