Extreme heat from the super El Niño event could cause 451,000 deaths through February. A new @impact_lab report co-authored by @AreBerkeley Professor Tamma Carleton pinpoints actions that could save tens of thousands of lives across the Global South. are.berkeley.edu/news/el-nin…
A new @ScienceAdvances study led by @UCBerkeley researchers details a cycle of carbon dioxide adsorption and desorption by desert soils—a process that could account for a surprisingly large share of the planet’s annual carbon exchange. ourenvironment.berkeley.edu/…

Learn how ESPM associate adjunct professor @pgonzaleztweet's time spent in the Peace Corps in Senegal changed both his Berkeley research and his life. news.berkeley.edu/2026/09/09…
More UC Berkeley alums have joined the @PeaceCorps than from any other university. From helping defuse a civil war in Kyrgyzstan to improving local forestry in Senegal, they're putting what they learned on campus to work around the world.

ALT A photo of UC Berkeley associate dean and executive director of Berkeley Career Engagement Sue Harbour sits on the left with her quote featured on the right in white text over a dark blue background. The quote reads: “Our students are... not cool with the status quo of what's going on in the world, and if they have an opportunity to do something that's going to impact change, they're going to do that."

Congratulations to ARE Professor Alain de Janvry on receiving the 2025-26 Constantine Panunzio Distinguished Emeriti Award in a ceremony yesterday with family, colleagues and Chancellor Lyons @NatureAtCal
ICYMI: In late August, @BerkeleyMetBio researchers in Professor Anders Näär's lab found a potential new treatment for obesity and diabetes that works by increasing energy expenditure—boosting the body’s metabolic rate— rather than limiting energy intake. cen.acs.org/biological-chemi…

The Master of Climate Solutions kicked off the school year with a welcome from Chancellor Lyons and a Q&A between Tom Steyer and MCS Executive Director Jason Kibbey about the energy/climate transition.

This academic year, Rausser College welcomes four full-time faculty members whose research spans environmental economics, climate science, earth sciences, and biogeochemistry.
Follow along throughout the fall as we introduce each researcher. nature.berkeley.edu/news/fou…
A new @Nature study led by @BerkeleyMetBio researchers Yufan Feng and Danica Chen found that semaglutide, a GLP-1 medication sold as Ozempic and Wegovy, slows physiological aging and extends the lifespan of older, healthy mice.
Read more about the study: mbn.berkeley.edu/news/late-l…
Mice treated with the drug showed improved muscle and cognitive function, reduced inflammation, and better regenerative capacity. Those treated until the end of their lives lived roughly 100 days longer than those that were not.

Tune in Sept. 3 for the launch of the Collaboratory for Equity in Water Allocation (#COEQWAL) platform, a tool for more inclusive California water planning and an equitable water future. The project was co-led by Ted Grantham of @espm_berkeley & @ucanr. coeqwal.berkeley.edu/launch-…

On Aug. 23, Associate Professor @UrbanSchell will transport audiences from an SF theatre to the parks, neighborhoods, and backyards where he conducts his research—and where coyotes and other animals make their home—as part of a special @NatGeoLive show. ourenvironment.berkeley.edu/…
Prof. Carl Boettiger @ESPM_Berkeley and colleagues at the Schmidt Center for Data Science & Environment say that open source, locally run AI models are part of a more sustainable future for scientific computing. nature.berkeley.edu/news/why…
In Jackson Hole, Wyoming this June, @UCBerkeley Chancellor Rich Lyons and Berkeley conservation experts led a panel discussion on how longstanding partnerships and innovative technology can drive conservation progress. Read the event transcript here: buff.ly/Jgt6ho8
“Fire is natural and necessary for forest health in California, but human-caused climate change is increasing wildfire above natural levels,” said lead author @pgonzaleztweet.
Read more about the park-specific findings that could better inform land management decisions.
New @NatureAtCal research indicates that continued climate change could severely increase wildfire above natural levels at national parks.
The study offers park managers data to reduce risks by using intentional fires to reduce the vegetation that can fuel more destructive wildfires.

@AreBerkeley on the role climate change has played—and will continue to play—in the spread of childhood malaria across Africa.
🚨 New Report: Climate change has increased malaria & could continue to do so in South/East Africa where communities are less experienced at tackling the disease, while reducing the risk in today’s hotspots as temperatures become too high for mosquitoes.
