How Data and Innovation Are Paving the Way for Student Success in STEM
For many aspiring young scientists and engineers, the first year of college is a crossroads. Introductory classes in math and science can determine who pursues careers in STEM and who changes course. These classes can act as bottlenecks and discourage students early on, preventing thousands of students from pursuing careers in math and science.
Why Pittsburghers Are Already Stressed About the Parkway East Closure — and What They Can Do About It
Commuting in traffic is a perfect example of a hallmark of stress: the lack of predictability and control.
How Early Life Experiences Shape Schizophrenia Risk
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and University of California, San Francisco found that childhood trauma, poverty, social isolation and other adverse life experiences are associated with brain changes linked to schizophrenia-spectrum disorders — findings that could help researchers identify people at risk earlier and develop interventions before severe symptoms emerge.
