WELLNESS ‘However you’re feeling, you’re not alone’: Emory students find, share mental health resources Across Emory, students are reaching out to help themselves and others — from self-care and peer support to university mental health resources. Read more about their experiences. HEALTH COVID-19 Q&A: Where are we now? Emory epidemiologists Carlos del Rio and Jodie Guest discuss topics related to COVID-19 including booster shots, vaccines for kids, natural immunity and safely gathering for the holidays. RESEARCH Biological studies often misinterpret sex-based data, analysis finds An analysis of published studies from a range of biological specialties shows that, when data are reported by sex, critical statistical analyses are often missing and the findings are likely to be reported in misleading ways. Neuroscientist Donna Maney is senior author on the study. INVOLVEMENT After Atlanta school board race, Emory sophomore looks to future When Royce Mann told his political science class he was running for office, some weren’t sure he was serious. With the citywide race now behind him, Mann plans to continue his efforts to engage and energize young voters. COMMUNITY Memorial service set for Nov. 30 for Stephen Warren, who changed the world's understanding of Fragile X syndrome The Emory community will remember Stephen T. Warren, the founding and former chair of the School of Medicine's Department of Human Genetics, during a Nov. 30 service. Warren passed away June 6.
