Carter, DeLuca & Farrell LLP is proud to sponsor the UC Santa Cruz Chancellor’s Innovation Impact Awards, a program that recognizes faculty, researchers, staff, students, and community partners whose work is advancing innovation and creating meaningful societal impact. The 2025 award recipients will have a celebratory ceremony on May 7, 2026, at the UC Santa Cruz University Center.
For many years, our firm has partnered with UC Santa Cruz innovators to help protect the intellectual property behind groundbreaking research and translational technologies. This year’s Translation of the Year honoree, NeuroSWARM³, developed by the Yanik Lab under the leadership of Ali Yanik, exemplifies the kind of pioneering work that can successfully bridge academic discovery and real-world application.
We are proud to support a program that showcases the strength of the UC Santa Cruz innovation ecosystem and the individuals driving it forward.
