Understanding the school nurse's experience in human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine promotion can reduce vaccine disparities. HPV vaccination is critical to cancer prevention. Despite the importance of the school nurse in vaccine promotion, there is a lack of understanding. This article aims to examine the knowledge, attitude, experience, and role…

Undergraduate-Level Biology Students' Application of Central Dogma to Understand COVID mRNA Vaccines
Download full textSaya Shahoy; Michelle Du; Ola Mostafa; Aliyah Parker; Dylan Martirano; Melinda T. Owens – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2024
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has underscored the importance of mRNA vaccines. The mechanism for how such vaccines work is related to the core biology topic of the central dogma, which students often misunderstand despite its importance. Therefore, we wanted to know whether students can apply their biology knowledge of central…

Ulrich, Angela K.; McKearnan, Shannon B.; Lammert, Sara; Wolfson, Julian; Pletcher, Jonathan; Halloran, M. Elizabeth; Basta, Nicole E. – Journal of American College Health, 2022
After an outbreak of meningococcal B (MenB) disease at a university, we surveyed students regarding their vaccination status 2 months and 20 months after campus-led vaccination campaigns and compared students' self-report to vaccination records. Nearly all participants accurately reported the number of vaccine doses at both visits. Among those who…

Kahlon, Gavina; Waheed, Fareshta; Owens, Melinda T. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2022
Vaccines are an important and societally relevant biology topic, but it is unclear how much college biology students know about how vaccines work and what inaccurate ideas they have about that process. Therefore, we asked more than 600 college students taking biology courses at various levels to explain, "How does a vaccine work?" in a…
