DAVIS, Calif. (AP) — A university in Northern California has launched a specialized center devoted to coffee education and research. The Coffee Center at the University of California, Davis, is focused on research aimed at supporting farmers, examining the sustainability of coffee and evaluating food safety issues.

One professor who has studied coffee at Vanderbilt University says the UC Davis Center is unique because it brings together so many different aspects of coffee research, including agriculture and chemistry.
