"Carl Ade's research is a work of heart — quite literally.

Passionate about studying how the cardiovascular system responds to stress, Ade, associate professor in the School of Health Sciences, follows questions that take his research in remarkably different directions. One day, he's researching ways to reduce cardiotoxicity in chemotherapy patients; the next, he's contributing to NASA-funded research aimed at limiting the risks of spaceflight through aerospace pathophysiology."

By Abbigail Marshall, News and Communications Services

Congratulations on your recognition, Dr. Ade! Read more about his work in K-State Today, linked in the comments ⬇️

"It takes a community."

You are invited to join Shauna Tominey, associate professor in human development and family sciences at Oregon State University, as she presents her lecture, “It Takes a Community: Supporting Children and Families in an Ever-Changing World."

In a rapidly evolving society, change is happening faster than our brains can process it. Children and teens are navigating typical developmental milestones along with information overload, constant digital connectivity, and worries about the state of the world. Families are experiencing burnout and isolation at alarming levels while having more ways to connect than ever before. Living in a society that is cultivating chronic stress needs an antidote. This presentation highlights lessons learned from the fields of early childhood and family sciences that point to antidotes for chronic stress: connection, compassion, and community. Join the conversation to reflect on the state of children and families (their many strengths as well as current challenges) while identifying how we can each make a difference.

Mark your calendar to join us on Wednesday, September 16 at 3 p.m. in the Wildcat Chamber to hear Shauna Tominey's lecture and witness her will receive the Career Impact Award from HHS, the top award given by the college!
