Through his research on anaerobic organisms that grow in the human intestine, Miami University Associate Professor of Microbiology Dr. D.J. Ferguson is working toward a cure for heart disease. Ferguson’s widely published research explores how these organisms break down common compounds during the digestive process. Some of the... Read more
Gravity pulls everything together, right? We grow up learning and understanding this basic scientific rule.
But if that’s so, why is the expansion of the universe speeding up instead of slowing down?
David Weinberg, Ph.D.“It’s like throwing your car keys in the air and having them accelerate upwards and disappear from sight,” said David Weinberg, Ph.D., chair... Read more
