NOW PLAYING:

WXDU News, Sports, and Information Tonight (1/4) 6:00-8:00

The Endless Frontier returns tonight at 6:00 to discuss some of the latest in science news. The hosts will examine a new study that links cancer rates in different tissues and organs to the number of stem cells in those tissues and organs, ethical concerns relating to the human and animal chimeras made during research, and the use of programming languages in scientific research.

Then at 6:30: Many people make New Year's resolutions and take the start of a new year as an opportunity to look to the future. But how did people in the past imagine the future? In an episode titled The Future Then: Visions of a Future Yet to Come, BackStory with the American History Guys explores just how people envisioned the years that lay ahead.

WXDU News is taking this week off, but tune in for WXDU Sports next at 7:30. Martin Kang will focus on college basketball tonight. He'll recap the Duke women's team's performance during their last several games, including yesterday's match against Wake Forest, and have a look at the Duke men's squad and NCCU's men's and women's basketball teams. Martin will also discuss the Duke football team's loss to number 15 Arizona State at the last week's Sun Bowl in El Paso.
