Some researchers are concerned that some negative views towards COVID-19 vaccines could extend beyond COVID-19 into other beneficial vaccines. In a recently published study in the journal Vaccine, a team of researchers from seven universities, including Drexel University, conducted a nationwide survey to measure whether the COVID-19 pandemic had such an effect on views about Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination.
Now a new study from researchers at Drexel University’s College of Medicine, and additional colleagues from the NationalInstitute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)-funded national “IMmunoPhenotyping Assessment in a COVID-19 Cohort” (IMPACC), gives clinical providers insights to help patients anticipate what they may or may not experience down the road with the disease. It also gives providers more confidence when they set out a care plan for hospitalized patients aimed to help prevent long COVID, such as determining which patients need antivirals early after disease onset.
Designed for mid- to senior-career women in medicine to prepare them for deanships and other senior leadership roles, ELAM invites women faculty possessing the greatest potential for executive leadership at academic health centers within the next five years to complete an intensive, one-year fellowship of leadership training with extensive coaching, networking and mentoring.
New research from Drexel University aimed to understand the challenges and needs of women with perinatal depression, as well as the role feeding plays in their interactions with infants.
t’s no secret that growing older can be taxing on the body, and this is no less true during perimenopause, which occurs just before menopause, characterized by a significant drop in mature eggs in the ovaries, irregular ovulation, and plummeting levels of estrogen and the hormone progesterone. This drop in estrogen may play a role in hearing loss and help explain gender differences in hearing loss, according to data recently published by researchers at Drexel’s College of Medicine in the American Journal of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Medicine and Surgery.
Aaron Kucyi, PhD, an assistant professor in Drexel University’s College of Arts and Sciences and director of the Dynamic Brain and Mind Lab, recently published a review of recent research developments on spontaneous thought and mental health, and what it means for future mental health interventions.
As part of an effort by National Institutes of Health to protect health care workers from dangerous infections, researchers from Drexel University’s College of Computing & Informatics are sharing their expertise on how best to […]
A new study based on the Between the Lines research project — a two-year project between researchers at Drexel University and the Mexico section of the US-Mexico Border Health Commission — offers perspectives on the discrimination and trauma felt by immigrant children amid anti-immigrant rhetoric and family separation policies from 2019-2021.
Spotting patterns among patient records can allow physicians to better diagnose and treat their patients. With access to more records, and more time to parse them, it’s possible that these health care providers could identify […]
For people with chronic kidney disease, obesity can increase risks of kidney function decline and is associated with worse outcomes after kidney transplant surgery. But weight loss attempts must be managed with care to avoid […]
