Every great discovery begins with a healthy dose of curiosity. Where does that first inquisitive spark come from? KVIE is partnering with UC Davis to find out. We’re profiling professors, scientists, researchers, and others at UC Davis to examine the curious spirit that led each of them to great breakthroughs or achievements. We call it the Curiosity Project.
