Davisville, Jan. 12, 2026: With research cuts, ‘this is what you’re giving up’

Wed, 01/14/2026 - 4:00pm | Bill Buchanan

Minds Over Matters logo.png

The Trump administration’s deep cuts to federal spending on university research have prompted Ed Kiggins, who leads communications for the UC Davis College of Letters and Science, to start the Minds Over Matters podcast highlighting research at UC Davis. Every two weeks, he talks with a different UC Davis faculty member about their work and why it matters.

“Think about reducing Alzheimer’s from a death sentence to basically an inconvenience. That’s the kind of work that’s going on here, and that’s what’s on the block right now,” he says today on Davisville. “Those are the things that … the federal government is intent on keeping from you. We don’t really understand why. No one’s really given us a clear answer as to that regard, but our job is not to engage in that battlefield, our job is to say, ‘this is what you’re giving up, if you choose to go down this path.’ “

Hello Davis!, Jan. 7, 2026: The creators of MyDavisCalifornia share their story

Wed, 01/07/2026 - 11:14am | Ned

On today's edition of Hello Davis!, Richard Jia and Gray Eby of MyDavisCalifornia share their insights about the quirky little town we all love, Davis.

MyDavisCalifornia is a full-on content playground: stories, visuals, collaborations, insider tips—the works. Born in 2021 out of sheer enthusiasm (and possibly too much coffee), it’s become the digital buddy you didn’t know you needed for exploring Davis. Davis only has 65,000 residents, but some of its videos have been viewed well into the millions. How’s that for a statement?

The brains behind it? UC Davis alumni Richard Jia and Gray Eby, who somehow turned their Aggie pride into a website that makes the rest of us wonder, “Why didn’t I think of that?”

Editor's Note: We were bereft to learn about Diane's passing on Dec. 28. She has been an integral part of the DMA and KDRT communities for 20+ years. This obituary was wriiten by Diane's brother-in-law, Bill Buchanan. This  is the GoFundMe he references.

UPDATE JAN. 5: A celebration of her life has been scheduled for 1 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 15, in the Davis Odd Fellows Lodge. More details to come.  

Diane Crumley, who saw creativity in nature all around her, earned a PhD in anthropology, and worked or volunteered for several Yolo County nonprofits during more than two decades in Davis, died Dec. 28, 2025 at 68 from cancer.

Born in 1957, Diane earned a bachelor’s in biological anthropology from the University of California Los Angeles in 1986 and her doctorate from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque in 2000. She was an accomplished grants writer and was a research associate at the UNM Medical School's Cancer Research and Treatment Center.
