Preparing for final exams. The Scarecrow’s origin story in Hollywood’s “Wicked.” A relaxing holiday break to rest one’s mind. This time of year, many of us have the brain … on the brain. For two UofL researchers, they’re going even deeper to discover how our brains help us find – and feel – the right words to express ourselves.
Read more about the research into our sweet emotions in the fall/winter 2024 issue of UofL Magazine, along with stories about preparing high schoolers for college, mini grant funding that’s making a large impact in local communities and a jewelry designer who is fully in her golden era.
Inside this issue…
- Teach them while they’re young, right? University students and staff are helping high schoolers both here in Louisville and throughout Kentucky plan their path to higher education. Ready, set, graduate!
- Many hands make light work, and mini grants make life work. Cardinals are changing their communities thanks to small grants from the Gheens Foundation that are making big impacts in Louisville and beyond.
- By playing with memory, a UofL alumna draws inspiration from recollections to create her own collection of designer jewelry that is being worn by stars like Taylor Swift.
All these stories and more that showcase UofL’s connection to our alumni here and beyond are now available in the latest edition of UofL Magazine.
Please Note: As of 2024, UofL Magazine has moved to two issues per year – one edition for spring/summer and another for fall/winter.
