He also holds two patents, authored a chapter on molecular convergence and intelligent design for The Nature of Nature, and co-wrote a chapter on antimicrobial peptides for Biological and Synthetic Membranes. 

Fuz writes and speaks extensively about evidence for creation emerging from biochemistry, genetics, human origins and synthetic biology. As vice president of research and apologetics at Reasons to Believe, he is  dedicated to communicating to skeptics and believers alike the powerful scientific case for God’s existence and the Bible’s reliability.
