On Nov. 6 2022, UCLA held its annual science fair event, Exploring Your Universe, with a record-breaking 12,000 attendees.
Ric Kaner gave a talk titled “Fun with Plastics!” with polymers with a lot of fun experiments.
And group member, Sophia Uemura, was on the organizing team for the event.
Visit EYU 2022 website for more information.
Professor Richard Kaner’s new bacterial resistant coating for medical devices is featured in UCLA’s student-run newspaper, the Daily Bruin. Kaner group alumni Brian McVerry (Ph.D. ’16) and Ethan Rao (B.S. Biochemistry ’16) helped to develop the coating that is transforming the lives of patients who are required to use implantable medical devices on a long-time basis.
Congratulations to Maher!
