UC is a worldwide leader in discovery, as the No. 1 public university for academic research with the most influential scientists and a world record for Nobel prizes. And with the world’s most startups and most patented inventions, no other university does more to transform discoveries into real-world solutions that generate jobs, grow the economy and make life better for everyone.

UC’s real-world impact is exemplified by the inaugural UC Regents Innovation Awards winners. Announced on Sept. 16, the awards honor 23 people in five categories, chosen from a group of nominees representing all 10 UC campuses and three affiliated national labs.

“These awards celebrate the extraordinary UC faculty and researchers whose teaching and research result in real-world solutions, technologies and therapies that improve the lives of millions of people,” said UC Board of Regents Chair Maria Anguiano. “The Board is honored to support University of California innovators who turn discoveries into new jobs, economic growth, and lasting societal benefit across the country.”
