CU Denver now offers students club sports, including hockey, women’s volleyball and cheer/dance.

It did not come as a huge surprise to Aaron Wilson, club sports graduate assistant, that an open meeting for students interested in club sports attracted 60 students in September 2012.

Richard Johnson, MD, just published his book, The Fat Switch, which reveals what he and his research team suggest could be the mechanism behind a worldwide obesity and diabetes epidemic.

The Fat Switch is a pretty grand story,” Johnson said. “At the heart, it tries to identify the cause of obesity and diabetes, and it also hits a lot of other diseases like celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, attention-deficit disorder and others.”

Meet Dr. Football

After playing professional football, Greg Myers, MD, became an anesthesiologist and an assistant professor at the CU School of Medicine.

The number of college football Hall of Famers turned pro safety, turned accomplished anesthesiologist and assistant medical professor would make for a very small huddle.
