Tech Launch Arizona to honor inventors and innovation leaders at September 26 annual gala

The evidence is clear – climate change is having a negative effect on our physical and mental health. The scale of the impact is vast, with millions of people around the world already facing the consequences of climate change daily.

An inventor, entrepreneur and writer, Dr. Floyd "Ski" Chilton is a multi-faceted professor whose work in the field of nutrition has had worldwide impact.

The NCI-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center meets the highest standards for patient care and research, with patients receiving the best care possible and experiencing better outcomes.

The dye injection is being done by the US Geological Survey in coordination with University of Arizona researchers, who plan to use the water-travel data in later laboratory experiments.

UArizona scientist Floyd Chilton is looking at the evidence the enzyme might drive severe forms of the virus.

Dr. Ski Chilton led a team that discovered distinct patterns in people who died from COVID-19.

Recent University of Arizona research suggests there's a link between an enzyme in our bodies similar to rattlesnake venom and deadly cases of COVID-19, and there’s a chance this information may save lives.

University of Arizona researchers trying to save COVID-19 patients have made what they believe is a critical discovery: an enzyme that typically defends the body is instead shredding cell membranes in organs of people with severe disease.

Collaborating scientists have identified what may be the key molecular mechanism responsible for COVID-19 mortality – an enzyme related to neurotoxins found in rattlesnake venom.

An enzyme that can tear cell membranes to shreds may contribute to the organ damage that ultimately kills some people with severe COVID-19.
