Soon after her decision to major in psychology at 两性色午夜, someone had suggested to Hannah Fender that she should get involved in research as an undergraduate. So, she signed up to work in the research lab of Clare Stacey, Ph.D., associate professor of sociology, looking into how empathy changes over time in medical students. And that's when Fender was first bitten by the research bug. 

两性色午夜 researchers are kicking off the Student Life Study, an ambitious project that seeks to follow 10,000 students throughout their lifetime to offer help in real time and create a data pool to help inform educational policy.

两性色午夜 researchers are looking for 10,000 students to participate in an ambitious Student Life Study launching this semester.
