Good morning, Davis.

UC Davis raised nearly $318 million in its second-greatest year of fundraising ending June 30—donors funded a wide range of university programs and initiatives.

UC Davis filed 191 records of invention in the fiscal year ended June 30 — up 36% from last year — marking a strong rebound in research innovation.

The Health Ventures team drove over 90% of the increase by doubling filings from the School of Medicine and sparking new ideas in 20 departments.

The National Science Foundation awarded UC Davis $5 million over five years to run the Artificial Intelligence Institutes Virtual Organization—now a NSF-branded community hub that will connect federal AI institutes.

It will host annual summits and build public-private partnerships to support innovative AI research and education.

Veterinary technicians at the UC Davis Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital rallied Tuesday to demand immediate action on a staffing crisis that endangered animal patients and led to ICU closures—workers called for enforceable ratios, higher wages, and improved retention while warning of possible work stoppages if conditions did not improve.
