Editor’s Note

I am delighted to announce the 2021 issue of the Journal of Student Research at IU East (JSRIUE). In my recent work as a graduate student editor for this year’s issue of JSRIUE, I have had the pleasure of working with students and their work while learning more about fascinating topics students have researched. Robinson’s piece, “The Biochemistry of Attraction,” particularly stands out as interesting—discussing some of the different aspects of attraction that drive humans to seek love.

Despite the struggles of the COVID-19 pandemic, many Indiana University East students and faculty pulled together (albeit virtually) to produce this year’s magnificent publication and collection of student research. I continue to promote the Journal of Student Research at IU East to students—encouraging current IUE students to submit their research, scholarship, and creative activity for future publications of JSRIUE.
