Not only does the UC cancelling the MOP prevent us from getting a below rate mortgage, but it also completely prevents new faculty from using the 150k ZIP loan designed for a downpayment. Insult to injury here...

Congrats to Prof. Gerardo Mackenzie for being named UC Davis Nutrition chair! Among his goals is to secure training grants for students, particularly in nutritional biology & maternal and child nutrition, two areas where faculty have significant expertise. caes.ucdavis.edu/news/professor…

Guess what I found today. Online course contents for Experimental Design and Analysis with R at UC Davis (listed as Plant Sciences 205 at UC Davis). I took it back in 2017 when I was a PhD student, but now it is also online! I highly recommend. deruncie.github.io/PLS205_course/
