Expanding University Initiatives
Growing up in Kolkata, India, Meenakshi Das Lala Rozenstrauch, ’11, was always interested in research, psychology and medicine. “The research that was happening in Kent really excited me, and I wanted to work with the professors,” said Meenakshi.

Dr. Michael Strickland's group will participate in a new Topical Theory Collaboration funded by DOE’s Office of Nuclear Physics to explore the behavior of heavy flavor particles. The collaboration will receive $2.5 Million from the DOE Office of Science, Office of Nuclear Physics, over five years. That funding will provide partial support for six graduate students and three postdoctoral fellows at 10 institutions, as well as a senior staff position at one of the national laboratories. It will also establish a bridge junior faculty position at Kent State University.
Kent State Brain Health Research Institute’s 10th Annual Neuroscience Symposium features leading neuroscience experts and brings top researchers to the Kent Campus.
From Nov. 14 through Dec. 9, university groups on the Kent Campus will be collecting clean, gently used or new items from all ages, including warm clothing, hats, gloves, scarves and sweaters.
This Giving Tuesday Jacqueline Bresnahan, ’68, Ph.D., is contributing the matching funds for the Brain Health Research Institute Undergraduate Fellows Program in honor of the most influential mentor in her life, her mother.
Neutron stars are some of the densest objects in the universe, and as such, the conditions at the cores of these extreme objects are impossible to reproduce on Earth. However, we can use data from the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) and the Virgo gravitational wave detector to gain insights into the physics of neutron stars.

Up until approximately 10^(-5) seconds after the Big Bang, the Universe was is a primordial state of matter called a quark-gluon plasma (QGP). This is due to the fact that the early Universe was extremely hot and in such a hot environment normal matter, e.g., atoms, atomic nuclei, and even neutrons and protons, did not exist.
