The University of California Humanities Research Institute (UCHRI) has recently funded two projects led by faculty in the UC Davis College of Letters and Science that document the lives of marginalized people, both in the past and present.

A team of UC Davis Humanities scholars planning a 2024-2025 seminar, Thinking Food @ the Intersections, was recently awarded $225,000 for the project. The seminar will have dual goals of understanding the complexities of food justice through a humanities framework as well as finding new potential solutions. 

Thirteen faculty members from the College of Letters and Science at UC Davis were recently awarded Revitalization Research Program Grants. Intended to support faculty whose research programs have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the college-funded grants support the continuation or completion of stalled, high-priority projects. The selected faculty members represent the breadth of research conducted at the College of Letters and Science.
