New Year’s eve is in the rearview mirror but those resolutions are front and center and if you’re already struggling to keep them that is perfectly normal. Katie Godshall, a clinical assistant professor in the College of Health and Human Services at the University of New Hampshire and an expert in the field of mental health, reminds that change can be hard and before throwing in the towel it’s important to remember why those resolutions were important in the first place.

Human-Centered Humanities

The UNH Center for the Humanities is proud to be supporting the innovative work of three College of Liberal Arts (COLA) faculty members this academic year. Amy Michael (anthropology) has just completed her semester-long leave advancing a research project that focuses on community memory in response to long-term missing persons cases in rural spaces. This project pilots two nested studies exploring how forensic anthropologists’ work can be relevant to living persons affected by unresolved disappearances.

UNH researchers shed light on better understanding building blocks of the universe

Researchers from the University of New Hampshire have published a groundbreaking study in Physics Letters B, a leading journal in nuclear physics. Led by postdoctoral researcher David Ruth and co-authored by UNH professor Karl Slifer and others, the paper provides new insights into the hyperfine splitting effect, which governs how electrons interact with atomic nuclei.
