Faculty from the School of Health Sciences will lead the discussion of November's science café.

Andy Lamb, medical director for Elon University's Physician's Assistant Studies, speaks at the September's science café. 

One third-year, two second-year and two first-year Elon Doctor of Physical Therapy students participated in the conference, bringing home an award, ideas and inspiration.

Bill Andrews, professor of physical therapy education, recently had two articles accepted for publication in peer-reviewed journals. 

Elon University had a strong presence at the conference, held May 19-23 in New Orleans, with 11 physician assistant students from the classes of 2019 and 2020 attending and four faculty members presenting.

At the annual Faculty/Staff Awards Luncheon on May 9, the Elon community honored 12 faculty members who are retiring this year.

The collaboration between the Student Professional Development Center, the School of Health Sciences and the Health Professions Advising Committee offered students the chance to participate in a key aspect of applying to schools in health professions. 

Mark your calendars for the upcoming Elon Wellness Fair on May 1 from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. in Koury Athletic Center.
