CITRIS UC Davis Network of Researchers
Meet the people that make CITRIS at UC Davis what it is - our faculty researchers. With over 150 research faculty connected through CITRIS in over 30 departments, schools and centers, UC Davis has a broad network of experts changing the world with the help of CITRIS funding.
2022 CITRIS Seed Award Recipients
This past year, in competition for the 2022 CITRIS Seed Awards, teams from the University of California campuses at Berkeley, Davis, Davis Health, Merced and Santa Cruz submitted proposals that address various challenge areas within the information technology sector, including aviation, climate resilience, digital health and robotics.
Of those highly competetive proposals, eight were chosen for funding - six of which included researchers from UC Davis. CITRIS at UC Davis is proud to have 11 Principal Investigators associated with these innovative projects.
