Medical researchers at SIU School of Medicine’s Neuroscience Institute are studying how the novel coronavirus may accelerate the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Their data could help identify patients that are more susceptible to the disease’s cognitive and physical decline.

Primary care physician James Daniels, MD, and sports psy-chologist Lindsay Ross-Stewart, PhD, want to change how rural patients recover from hip or joint replacement surgery using virtual reality goggles. Thanks to a collaboration grant from SIU Medicine and SIU Edwardsville, Drs. Daniels and Ross-Stewart will test whether a combination of guided imagery and virtual reality goggles can help patients recover. Ross-Stewart, an expert in imag-ery research at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, says the low-cost technology could help participants regain their independence, reduce the
