U-M program builds bridge for diverse STEM doctorates

David McMillon was a middle schooler in Saginaw when he dreamed of space travel and outer space. Anthony Della Pella was working in his high school library when he found a book on theoretical math and his direction in his educational life. But the route to a doctorate degree in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics for students like McMillon, who is Black, and Della Pella, a first-generation college graduate from River Rouge, isn’t always clear cut. Trachette Jackson, a University of Michigan math professor, says that many students face biases, inequalities and barriers that impact their ability and desire to pursue academic careers in STEM.

More youth report concussions since 2016, U-M study shows

University of Michigan Educating athletes, parents and coaches about concussion treatment and prevention has been a priority during the last decade, but are the intended audiences hearing the message? New research from the University of Michigan found that 1 in 4 adolescents self-reported at least one concussion in 2020, up from about 20% in 2016. During that same time period, youth who reported one concussion rose from roughly 14% to 18%, and those who reported at least two concussions increased from about 6% to 7%. “Self-reported concussions could be increasing given that both children and parents have greater knowledge with respect to these injuries,” said co-author Philip Veliz, assistant research professor at the U-M School of Nursing. “We have seen a greater effort in the U.S. to educate the population regarding the risks associated with head injuries and may have greater knowledge with respect to symptoms associated with these types of injuries.”
