Kayleigh Bhangdia ’16, of Poughquag, N.Y., worked with the Madison County Department of Health this summer, […]

Editor’s note: In this series, �IJʿ��� students share stories about their summer experiences in offices, labs, and open spaces across the world. This summer, I am on campus working with Professor Barbara Hoopes in the biology department. Our lab is conducting research on genes that determine size variation in poodles.

From photochemical pathways to early animation devices to homosexuality in the Arab world — undergraduate research topics explored this summer by students and faculty were presented at yesterday’s poster session. 

�IJʿ��� Associate Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience Bruce Hansen probably should have predicted his recent $600,000 James S. McDonnell Foundation award to fund the next six to eight years’ worth of lab work with dozens of students. After all, his research could easily be considered mind reading.

Editor’s note: In this series, �IJʿ��� students share stories about their summer experiences in offices, labs, and open spaces across the world. This summer, I’m interning for the History Program Office of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in Washington, D.C. By providing easy access to information about its past successes and failures, the […]

Editor’s note: In this series, �IJʿ��� students share stories about their summer experiences in offices, labs, and open spaces across the world. This summer, I am in Durban, South Africa, conducting research with Congolese refugees through first-hand communication.

April Bailey ’14 began studying gender and power dynamics at �IJʿ���, in classrooms and in the lab with Spencer Kelly, professor of psychology and neuroscience. Now a PhD student in the social psychology program at Yale, Bailey has already published the first paper of her career. Titled “Picture power: Gender versus body language in perceived dominance,” […]

Alexandria Dyer ’14, of Portland, Ore., has been awarded a Fulbright research grant to travel to Ghana to study public health. Dyer will conduct research on the empowering social space of women’s hair salons and will then develop a pilot women’s health workshop for these informal settings.
