In this study, we want to learn more about the possible relationship between the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's undergraduate history students' political parties and their library usage. This paper aims to explore the question: does political affiliation of undergraduate history majors influence their use of the library? Interviews will be held with 10 students, from different sides of the political spectrum. Information gathered from interviews will be analyzed for similarities, differences, and patterns.

Do you ever notice that you feel more energized or alert when meeting new people and forming first impressions? Other times, a first meeting will rub you the wrong way and you may feel less attentive. If you've experienced one or both of these, you may wonder: What makes a good first impression? How do you know you want to become friends with someone? What information do we pay attention to when interacting with someone for the first time? Good questions! Neuroscience and psychology researchers wonder about the same things. Here at the Social Neuroscience and Health lab, we study how the brain and the immune system work together to influence our behaviors and experiences. The Friendship Pathways Study is a research project aiming to answer questions about how the brain and immune system communicate when meeting new people and forming friendships.

In this study, we want to find out more about the relationship between jumping and running tasks and a virtual reality task. We also want to find out how a recent concussion (within the last 9 months) may impact completing these tasks.

Our goal is to give a voice to families to share their experiences, and help determine what additional supports might help families with future IRF deployments.
