Hosted by longtime KPR engineer, Steve Kincaid, Research Matters is a new collaboration between Kansas Public Radio (KPR) and the KU Office of Graduate Studies (OGS) that highlights the contributions of graduate research to the economic, human, social, and environmental health and growth of Kansas and the nation. Each installment of Research Matters will showcase a brief interview with a KU graduate student about their project, its impact on the state, and the motivations driving the student’s research pursuits.

These 2-minute installments are scheduled to broadcast on Monday mornings at 9:04 a.m., Wednesday evenings at 8:04 p.m., and Sunday afternoons at 1:04 p.m., and can be found on KPR 1 (FM 91.5) and KPR 2 (FM 96.1) as well as on the OGS and KPR websites.
