Research at the University of Kansas deepens our understanding of our world and ourselves. From cancer drug design to the state of polar ice sheets, from biodiesel refinement to the biodiversity of bees, investigations by KU researchers impact the lives of Kansans and people around the globe.

"Research Matters" looks at the most important and fascinating inquiries underway at KU across a range of disciplines, including science, engineering, humanities, social sciences and life sciences.

Each week, the KU Office of University Relations produces a new two-minute "Research Matters" spot. Hear the program on Monday at 2:57 p.m. and on Sunday at 1:04 p.m. on Kansas Public Radio (91.5 FM in Lawrence; 91.3 FM in Manhattan; 89.7 FM in Emporia).

Online, "Research Matters" is available for on-demand listening, complete with photography, relevant links, an archive of past shows and additional information about show topics.

Brendan Lynch is producer and host of "Research Matters."
