This discovery furthers our understanding of how Borrelia burgdorferi causes inflammation and disease, said Mari Davis, who is the lead author on the paper, a former master s graduate of the Jutras lab in the Department of Biochemistry in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.

Lenoir-Rhyne students and some faculty marched from Hickory City Hall to the university in protest of racism on Thursday.
The demonstration comes less than a week after former Lenoir-Rhyne basketball player Laney Fox published an open letter saying she was cut from the team for speaking up on racial justice.

Nakia Hooks, a Black basketball player who is transferring, said athletes were told they would have their scholarships substantially reduced or that they would not be brought back.
