- Research conducted by psychology PhD candidates Christopher Cardoso and Anne-Marie Linnen in collaboration with Mark Ellenbogen, professor in the Department of Psychology and CRDH researcher, appears on the Health News Network. Their study found that the off-label use of oxytocin by healthy adults shows an increase in emotional oversensitivity. The research is also carried by Health Render.
- Agence Science-Presse features research conducted by Damon Matthews, professor in the Department of Geography, Planning and Environment, that found that seven countries account for more than 60 percent of the global warming between 1906 and 2005. This study is unique because it assigns a temperature change value to each country that reflects its contribution to observed global warming. The research is also carried by Spanish-language publication, Diario Ecologia.
