Finding love by sight and smell

Why is love elusive for some while others stumble upon the real thing barely trying? Research continues to explore the skill of finding that special someone, and it may not be as much about what we know, but about what we sense. See if you have a nose for love, or if it’s love at first sight.

COM Student of the Month – Brad Hertzler, 4th-year student

Editor’s Note: Each month, InterCOM will highlight a “Student of the Month” from the College of Medicine. Students will be featured for their participation in activities outside of medical school and for making a difference in the community. The goal is to recognize students for what they are doing and to encourage other students to get involved in the community. After all, medical school should be much more than studying.

UNMC offers a great medical education.

That message came through loud and clear as I met with some of our College of Medicine alumni last week in Arizona as part of a series of events coordinated by the University of Nebraska Alumni Association and the University of Nebraska Foundation.
