At any given time, hundreds of salamanders are being bred at the University of Kentucky. "We have the only captive-bred salamander population in the world where people can call us up, and we can do the breedings, make those resources and ship them out nationally and internationally," says Randal Voss, a professor of biology and faculty associate of the Spinal Cord and Brain Injury Research Center (SCoBIRC).
Professor James Krupa was recently recognized by the National Association of Biology Teachers.
UK Biologist Randall Voss is studying salamander regeneration—something that may one day help people with spinal cord and limb injuries.
The University of Kentucky Biology, Physics and Astronomy, Chemistry, and Psychology departments are reaching out to area high school science teachers and teaching them something new: what's new in science.
Professor Randal Voss of the University of Kentucky Biology Department talks about understanding evolution through the human genome.
