  February 27, 2023 | Volume 6, Issue 23   MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN Dear GSBS Community One of the ways I deal with stress is by a daily wellness practice of core exercises and meditation. Sometimes, I listen to the radio during this practice. I recently heard an On Being by Krista Tippett  interview with UC Berkeley neuroscientist and psychologist Dacher Keltner , who studies the science of awe. The interview was moving, and got me thinking about the link between mind and body, a link that connects many of GSBS’s fields of study, particularly neuroscience and immunology. Dr. Keltner also stressed the importance of community to our shared wonder and wellness.  I wish you all success in your continued search for awe and wonder in your own science, and hope you continue to find with your fellow students, faculty, and staff. -Dan Jay HIGHLIGHTS   Applications Open - Krinsky, Schimmel, and SEF Awards Apply here:  Krinsky Award ,  Schimmel Award ,  SEF Travel ...
