Inside Irvine Summer 2025

GUTSY RESEARCH Connecting bumblebees and humans may seem like a flight of fancy. But UC Irvine scientist Tobin Hammer and his team are studying the gut bacteria of bumblebees to improve not only their health, but potentially ours as well. It’s critical research that starts by asking dierent questions. And at UC Irvine, that willingness to think outside the box is behind our impact in Orange County and far beyond. It takes the collaboration of great minds. But it also takes guts.

GREAT MINDS THINK TOGETHER.
