Professor gains reputation as guru of germs
Jack Brown, KU professor of molecular biosciences, advises focusing on germs that we can identify and control. He wrote “Don’t Touch That Doorknob! How germs can zap you and how you can zap back.” For more information about Brown’s work, visit his Web site at http://people.ku.edu/~jbrown/bugs.html.

KU hopes to narrow peer funding gap
Throughout the state’s history, Kansans have favored a strong education system. Countless surveys confirm that elementary, secondary and postsecondary education remains a top priority. Not only do we want to prepare our young people to be successful, contributing adults, but we also recognize the critical role of education in the state’s economy and quality of life.
