rotation speed of a spiral galaxy and its baryonic mass. His contributions to cosmology include the quantitative accurate prediction of the amplitude ratio of the first-to-second peak of the acoustic power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background. With his work on low surface brightness galaxies he tested predictions of the Modified Newtonian Dynamics hypothesis, which was proposed as alternative to dark matter, finding notable agreement between theory and observations. The full title of the talk was "Dark Matter and Gravity: What is the Universe made of, and which is calling the shots?".
