<br>
One correction to yesterday’s announcement about the MRPI awards: the names of the PIs for the awards for UCR as host campus (B. Bar and R. Zandi) have been accidentally switched. It should have been <br>
<br>
Bar, Boris: Strengthening honey bee health and crop pollination to safeguard food availability and affordability<br>
<br>
Zandi, Roya: UC Coronavirus Assembly Research Consortium<br>

<br>
Congratulations again,<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am very glad to share in the attached file all of the 2021 UC Multicampus Research Programs and Initiatives (MRPI) awards that involve UCR’s PIs. Thank you to all those who participated in the competition and congratulations to the awardees.
I can tell you that this was a very competitive solicitation and that UCR did very well in it. My best wishes for the research and scholarly work to be supported by these awards.<o:p></o:p></p>
