Sounds of Science tells the stories of how – how chicken eggs impact vaccine development how a single parent can change the FDA how a horseshoe crab saves lives. If you enjoy DNA Today you will also love Eureka’s Sounds of Science, a podcast from Charles River. In response to the current pandemic, he has been a major contributor to the team providing rapid, high throughput testing for SARS-CoV-2 to the UC Davis campus and the City of Davis and is now deploying rapid genotyping to monitor for variants of concern. His interests also include applications of DNA sequencing to all areas of biology and its increasing impact on society. In particular, he aims to exploit such approaches for information-driven deployment of resistance genes in crop plants to provide more durable disease resistance. His multidisciplinary research utilizes molecular, genetic, and evolutionary approaches to plant genomics and he has published over 200 scientific papers.
He is currently a Distinguished Professor in the Departments of Plant Sciences, Molecular & Cellular Biology, and Medical Microbiology & Immunology. Richard was the founding Director of the Genome Center at UC Davis in 2003. Pollock is also the Director of Healthy Davis Together a large demonstration project involving the City of Davis and UC Davis in partnership.Īfter studying Natural Sciences at Cambridge University, Richard Michelmore joined the faculty of University of California at Davis in 1982. This group has guided system wide efforts to reduce SARS-CoV-2 transmission on the UC campuses.
Pollock was appointed Chair of the University of California (UC) Systemwide Public Health COVID-19 Workgroup. Pollock is a leading researcher on the epidemiology and control of childhood and adolescent cancers.Throughout his career, he has focused on developing research infrastructure integrating diverse disciplines such as epidemiology, biostatistics, and informatics with clinical and translational approaches to address important health issues.
