Authors: Killian Meara The vaccine demonstrated an acceptable safety profile in the adolescent population. A recent study conducted by investigators from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology company, Moderna, has found that their COVID-19 vaccine, mRNA-1273, was both safe and efficacious in preventing COVID-19 in adolescents. Results from the study were published in The New England Journal of […]

ABSTRACT Lockdowns and school closures deprive adolescents of typical social interactions. In this NeuroView, we explore how the quality of existing peer relationships might moderate-both positively and negatively-the impact of these restrictions on adolescent mental health, and we highlight […]
Authors: Lea Waters1*, Kelly-Ann Allen1,2 and Gökmen Arslan3,4 The move to remote learning during COVID-19 has impacted billions of students. While research shows that school closure, and the pandemic more generally, has led to student distress, the possibility that these disruptions can also prompt growth in is a worthwhile question to investigate. The current study examined stress-related growth […]

Authors: By Benedette Cuffari, M.Sc.Reviewed by Emily Henderson, B.Sc. In an effort to further understand and predict the health effects that can arise following infection by SARS-CoV-2, which is the infection that causes the disease COVID-19, many researchers have reevaluated the pathogenesis associated with coronaviruses that have already been identified. One type of coronavirus that has infected individuals around […]

However, a minority suffers from critical disease with substantial morbidity and mortality. Objectives: To identify individuals at risk of critical COVID-19, […]

Authors: Frances W Lai 1, Kyle B Stephenson, James Mahony, Brian D Lichty Abstract The human coronavirus OC43 is a major contributor to the common cold worldwide, though due to its low mortality rate, little research has focused on this human pathogen. The nucleocapsid is an essential structural protein with conserved functions across the coronavirus family. While a multitude […]
