On Earth Day 2017, members of the UCI community marched for science across the state and country
March for Science LA
EcoEvo professor Steve Allison and his family were featured in the LA Times.
Professor Diane Campbell marched with Professors Ann Sakai and Steve Weller, all from EcoEvo.
Graduate and undergraduate members of UCI’s Climatepedia club crowded the train on their way to host an educational booth in Pershing Square:
Dev & Cell professor Aimee Edinger (l) took a break from a retreat in Pasadena to attend…
… and so did MB&B professor David Fruhman (r).*
Professor Naomi Morrisette (r) represented MB&B as well.
