Two UF mathematics researchers have made a groundbreaking discovery
in a field most people don’t understand. Their discovery is built on the
work of great thinkers most people have never heard of. And it could have
important, everyday applications in the future, even though the researchers
themselves can’t say what those applications will be.
Leading a trend away from "drill and fill," UF dental researchers are
developing and testing a host of painless, cost-effective new treatments
aimed at preventing the development of cavities from the earliest ages.
Decades of research on hydroponic agriculture by researchers at UF’s
Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences are coming to fruition as the
lure of year-round fresh fruits and vegetables and new restrictions on
pesticides have made this farming without soil a more viable alternative
to traditional agriculture.
The nation’s infatuation with professional wrestling now borders on
a mania, fueled by alienation from everyday life, not the love of athletic
"competition" within the ring, says a recent University of Florida doctoral
graduate who researched the unconventional topic for his dissertation in
anthropology.
