Chikungunya : discovery of a human-specific factor involved in the virus replication
The Pasteur Museum
The Pasteur Museum is housed in the apartment where Louis Pasteur spent his final seven years and offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the living and working environment of the world-renowned scientist. Visitors can gain a unique insight into his everyday life alongside his wife and can admire his rich and diverse scientific work.
Discover a charming place where science meets art and history.
At the cutting edge of biomedical research
The Institut Pasteur's scientific strategy focuses on developing original and innovative topics and promoting interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary cooperation and approaches. The Institut Pasteur teams have access to the technological resources needed to speed up and further improve the quality of their outstanding research.
Teaching students from around the world
Ever since the introduction of the world's first "Technical Microbiology" course in 1889, teaching has been a priority for the Institut Pasteur. The Institut Pasteur has an international reputation for quality teaching that attracts students from all over the world who come to further their training or top up their degree programs.
The mission of the Industrial Partnership team is to detect, promote, assist and protect the inventive activities from research (inventions, know-how and biological materials) conducted at the Institut Pasteur (and in some Institutes of its international network), and transfer there to industrial and/or institutional partners, in order to serve the patient needs and for the benefit of the society, as well as to contribute to sustainability of the Institut Pasteur's resources.
With international courses, PhD and postdoctoral traineeship, each institute of the Institut Pasteur International Network (RIIP) contributes to the transmission of knowledge with the training of young researchers all around the world. In this context, doctoral and postdoctoral programmes, study and traineeship fellowships are available to scientists. Alongside training, dynamism and attractiveness of RIIP will result in the creation of 4-year group for the young researchers.

Chikungunya : discovery of a human-specific factor involved in the virus replication
Research | 29.05.2013
In a study published online May 28th for the Lancet Infectious Diseases medical journal, scientists at the Institut Pasteur in Paris and the Institut Pasteur in Morocco once again bring attention to the rapid worldwide spread of Salmonella Kentucky (S. Kentucky), a bacterium showing resistance to several classes of antibiotics. S. Kentucky is responsible for foodborne infections and has spread at an astonishing rate throughout Africa and the Middle East in the space of only a few years. In this study, the authors note that the bacterium has recently spread to India and South-East Asia and has acquired new resistance, particularly resistance to antibiotics of "last resort". The scientists also point out the considerable risk of this multi-resistant strain spreading to farmed poultry in industrialized countries. This bacterium has already been detected in farmed turkeys in Europe.

Scientists at the Institut Pasteur, the CNRS and the University of Texas have been able to observe at atomic-level the effects of ethanol (the alcohol present in alcoholic beverages) on central nervous system receptors. They have identified five ethanol binding sites in a mutant of a bacterial analog of nicotinic receptors, and have determined how the binding of ethanol stimulates receptor activity. These findings can be directly extrapolated to human GABA receptors (the primary inhibitory neurotransmitters in the human brain), which are ethanol's main target in the central nervous system. This work is being published online on April 16, on the Nature Communications website. It paves the way for the synthesis of ethanol antagonist compounds that could limit the effect of alcohol on the brain.
Research | 11.04.2013
Scientists at the Institut Pasteur and CNRS have shown that the use of low dose antibiotics can increase the emergence of resistance among pathogenic bacteria. They have observed that a low concentration of antibiotics is enough to activate a stress response in these bacteria. This response, known as "SOS", leads to the acquisition of resistance genes via two separate pathways. This work is the subject of an article published online on the Plos Genetics website on April 11.

An international research partnership from Tunisia, France and the United States has demonstrated a high cure rate and remarkably few side effects in treating patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) with an antibiotic cream. CL is a parasitic disease that causes disfiguring lesions and affects 1.5 million people worldwide annually, including the socio-economically disadvantaged in the developing world, especially children. The results of the study conducted by the Institut Pasteur de Tunis, the Institut Pasteur (Paris) and U.S. medical researchers were published today in the New England Journal of Medicine.

In association with CEA-Genoscope and the Sanger Institute, scientists at the Institut Pasteur in Paris, the CNRS, INSERM, the Institut Pasteur of Lille, and Université Lille 2 have recently determined the origin of the emergence of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacterium, the main causative agent of tuberculosis. Researchers have also provided insights into its evolutionary success. They have identified several genetic mechanisms that could have contributed to the worldwide dissemination of this pathogen, which currently infects up to 2 billion people. This research, published on the Nature Genetics website on January 6, offers possibilities for identifying new targets in the fight against tuberculosis.

Dear Scroll Readers,
I am pleased to announce that CBE has launched a new website! The CBE Scroll has been moved onto this new website, so if you would like to continue subscribing to our posts and being part of the discussion, go to www.cbeinternational.org/blog and sign up today.
We hope you will continue to join with us in discussion and dialogue around biblical equality.
Recently I commented on a Facebook post that I disliked the word "feminist/feminism" when used to describe what I would brand an evangelical egalitarian position (that men and women may serve equally in the home, the church, and the world as God has so apportioned and enabled them). Even when adding the adjective "evangelical" in front of "feminism" (as some have done in their publication titles), negative connotations remain. Moreover, "feminist/feminism" is clearly gender-specific having to do with qualities associated with women only and hardly shows a balanced and "equal" treatment. If anything, "feminism" incites heated and rarely fruitful discussion in everyday parlance, at least according to my experiences.
And so, while reading through a few commentaries on 1 Peter 3:1-7, I came across Scot McKnight's treatment (pp 192-194) where he lays out a spectrum of hermeneutical approaches that I think are helpful with respect to the relevant biblical texts. The table below is derived from his commentary (Note: McKnight admits dependence on A. C. Thiselton's New Horizons in Hermeneutics. I've captured McKnight's main points ipsissima vox rather than ipsissima verba.)
|Evangelical Feminist
McKnight concludes with some penetrating remarks that call for interpretive consistency, biblical fidelity, and cultural sensitivity.
I urge that each interpreter look long and hard at his or her own principles and see if consistency is achieved in the process of interpretation. It will simply not do for someone to dismiss slavery as outmoded, or to contend for civil disobedience to governmental authorities, or to argue for some kind of "Mr. Mom" theory, and then not be consistent in permitting to women the same freedom and change of application. Nor is it fair to argue without substantial reasoning for some things being cultural (like wearing jewelry or fancy clothing) and other things being transcultural. Above all, we must be biblically anchored and culturally reasonable if we are to let the gospel have its way of power today.
I could not agree more!
I find that the expression "Evangelical Egalitarian" best captures and communicates my position and significantly reduces the heat in discussions. As I read through and understand the mission and history of CBE, I do not find any "feminists" language or leanings but I do find a call for justice and equality across the genders. This is egalitarian!]]>

Formed in 2006, the International Christian Alliance on Prostitution (ICAP) works to "unite, equip, and empower practitioners who compassionately challenge injustice and offer freedom to those being sexually exploited through prostitution including human trafficking." This past May, ICAP held its fifth global conference—a five day event that welcomed 300 Christian workers from 55 countries. Aimed at building global networks for emotional, spiritual and physical renewal, what better to restore one's energies than beside the glowing waters of Green Lake, Wisconsin—a historic conference founded by the American Baptists.
How does one spend five days at an ICAP conference? If you're an exhausted justice worker, you delight in the 50 workshops offered by experts in their field. You also make haste to register for a free hour of counseling—provided every registrant. You spend hours sleeping or hiking along Green Lake praying, crying or even shouting to God. You drink in the daily worship, led by classical musicians on loan from Les Miserable, New York City. You grow stronger through corporate prayers and plenary sessions that are vibrant spiritually and emotionally. You found renewal through classical musical performances! You join the Oh, How I Love Jesus sing-along, as individuals pass the microphone to sing this beloved hymn in their own tongue, in more than twenty different languages. You smile as someone hands the microphone to a five-year old girl who has tried over and over again to reach for the microphone so she too might sing her favorite hymn. You remember that each language represents the many groups working to break the chains enslaving humans in the sex-industry. You pray for small children, whom the little girl represents, nearly 200 million missing from around the world. They are one of the reasons ICAP convenes–to knit lives together in prayer, advocacy and networking.
Prayer remained, throughout, a central feature. My favorite evening was during a plenary session… we were asked to stand and pray for those working in South East Asia. Nearly 300 of us huddled together, laying on those who carry the heaviest burden. What an honor it was to pray, country by country, in many different languages, for courage, funding, wisdom and God's power. United in one Spirit, we stood in faith, convinced that God would hear and honor our collective prayers.
ICAP's conference theme this year was "Delight," an experience in short supply for those battling sex-slavery. Yet, with each day of workshops, worship, counseling, prayer and rest, those who had arrived hunched over, drained from their work began to straighten up and smile. They seemed younger, lighter and more human thanks to God's presence and as corporate bonds deepened.
CBE's unique contribution to this week included a resource table where CBE journals, lectures and articles were distributed at no cost. I also led a workshop entitled, "Bible, Gender and Authority: Ideas have Consequences"—a biblical survey assessing the value and purpose of humankind, created male and female in God's image and recreated in the image of Christ—both creation accounts, in Genesis, and in Christ, God imputes equality of being, purpose and authority as their creational destiny. My workshop not only offered CEU credit to attendees, but also led to a larger conversation around a book project through the Oxford Centre for Mission Studies, to explore theology and praxis for gender-humanitarians.
CBE was delighted to learn that our workshop and resources were valued and more than that, we might be invited back in coming years. What an honor to be included in this network of noble Christians who constitute Christ's mystical body serving our wounded world. Driving home, my back was a bit straighter too, thanks to the care and investment of ICAP. As I made my way home, in petition and praise, I sang out loud in my car, Oh How I Love Jesus, a hymn that will henceforth always be a prayer for the enslaved children of our world. Join me in praying for those affiliated with ICAP, that God would flourish their ministries around the world. Sing with me, Oh How I Love Jesus, because he first loved me!]]>
Beliefs Known by Praxis, by Scot McKnight (Jesus Creed)
We have a few statements in the Bible that we might call the beliefs, and then there are the practices of women. I contend the practices reveal that what some think the Bible "believes" is not in fact what the Bible actually believes.
The Serpent Sheds its Skin: Porn, Homo Economicus and Human Flourishing, by Mick Pope (Red Letter Christians)
Pornography is a form of prostitution, where there is financial exchange for sexual pleasure. Actors, mostly women, are turned into objects of lust rather than subjects of love and affection. Pornography also suffer from another aspect of consumer culture; expectation creep and the need for ever increasing variety.
Advocacy Through Excellence, by Jean Cheng Gorman (Commission on Gender Equality, Covenant Church.)
Sisters, be the best pastors you can be. Preach the word with boldness and faithfulness. Lead and serve the church with humility and fearlessness. Equip and empower the Body of Christ to spread the Kingdom of God. As you strive for excellence and passionately serve the Lord with all gifts He has given you, know that the Lord Himself will advocate for you.

Can the Mosaic Law by Reconciled with Gender Equality? by Cheri Williams
The moral laws are continuous for Christians today because they represent the timeless will of God and are repeated in the New Covenant. Mosaic laws that were applied to humans' own moral standards, such as polygamy, divorce for any reason, slavery, patriarchy, etc., had the purpose of curbing abuse while humans engrossed themselves in the enterprise of establishing a viable self-government; therefore, they are discontinuous for Christians today, because these laws were not reflective of God's morality.

Initially God gave only one command, one law, in the Garden, where the existence of a law enabled choice to be exercised. Free will afforded the possibility of choosing between one's own will and God's will. When Adam sinned, a profound question was raised before an intelligent creation, "Is [the human] way of governing better than God's way of governing? Can [humans] rule [themselves] successfully independent of God?"[1] Outside of the Garden, God gave no other explicitly stated rules, except for instructions for animal sacrifice, inferred from God making garments of skin, which of course would require the death of an animal. Since God would later codify into law the action of offering an animal for an atonement of sin, it is not absurd to suggest that God offered a sacrifice for the sin done in the Garden to illustrate the cost of sin, and that thereafter a practice of animal sacrifice arose before the Mosaic Law, as illustrated through Noah (Gen. 8:20).
So apart from instructions of how to relate to God through religious ceremony for atonement, God appeared to give no instructions for how humans should relate to each other, thus giving the opportunity for humans to demonstrate whether their way of governing themselves would indeed be better than God's way. And what was the result? Humans' way of governing was absolute freedom. Everyone did what was right in his or her own eyes. So much violence was on the earth that God had to destroy it with a flood. God let humans see that they did need God's intervention, but human arrogance would not allow God to let one instance suffice in establishing the case of his superior ability to govern humans. Yet to let more evidence accrue without humans totally annihilating themselves, God would have to intervene in human affairs in a way that would still give them the chance to govern themselves. This approach of God toward humans is evidenced by the fact that not all the rules given at Mt. Sinai reflect God's morality. Rather, many of the laws in the Torah were rules God set around the people's beliefs and practices to curb and contain abuse.[2] For instance, there are rules related to polygamy, which does not reflect God's moral stance, but rules are still given as to the rights of the second wife so that she is not abused (Exod. 21:9–11). In other words, the Mosaic Law was applied to sinful conditions, such as polygamy, not to condone or endorse such evils, but to limit the damaging effects of those evils[3]–all in an attempt to see that if God gave guidelines to help humans carry out their understanding of how to treat and govern each other, could they then govern themselves in a way that would be successful and bring themselves happiness. And of course the answer has been no.
So humans decided they should have a king rule over them. It seems as though they thought, "That's it. That's the solution— if we put one human to rule over us, rather than God, then we will finally be able to govern ourselves successfully." But that did not work either. Having a king did not prevent other people from treating each other badly, and some times the king was the most evil one of all, and he was supposed to be the leader. The Law, along with the attempts to have kings, has illustrated indisputably humanity's need for God's sovereignty. So part of the purpose of the Mosaic Law has been to serve as a tutor to show humans that they need God in order to live in right relation to himself and others.
Christ's work on the cross ended God's allotted time for humans to demonstrate that they could attain autonomy successfully. Before Christ, God was trying to keep from giving humans only His own rules, which would return absolute rule to Himself, and tried to provide various 'helps' or modifications to their own system to increase its efficacy. Yet this does not mean that none of the Mosaic Law reflected God's morality. We must remember that humans were created with a law written on their hearts that reflected God's understanding of basic right and wrongs (Rom. 2:15), some of which are reflected in the 10 commandments. The moral laws are continuous for Christians today because they represent the timeless will of God and are repeated in the New Covenant. Mosaic laws that were applied to humans' own moral standards, such as polygamy, divorce for any reason, slavery, patriarchy, etc., had the purpose of curbing abuse while humans engrossed themselves in the enterprise of establishing a viable self-government; therefore, they are discontinuous for Christians today, because these laws were not reflective of God's morality. They were time-bound, serving as a means to establish the insufficiency of humans' perverted morality to produce a sustainable and beneficial government for all people.
Thus, by trusting the Bible as God's word that communicates God's perspective of human affairs, a viable explanation can be attained to account for the parts of the Mosaic Law that seem in direct conflict with gender equality; whereas, viewing the Bible as humans' own interpretation of themselves and God would conceal the historic context needed to establish their reconciliation.

Liberian Men and Women: United in Christ, by Florkime Paye

Reforming the Church: Lessons from the Mystics, by Mimi Haddad
Few imagined they might make a difference in a world as corrupt as Catherine's. And though Catherine preferred a life of prayer and solitude to public service, it was during prayer that she understood God was calling her to publicly confront abusive leaders. While she feared her gender might be an impediment, God assured Catherine that God had created both man and woman and pours out favor according to God's purposes.
Accurate and Understandable Church History, by Liz Sykes
Along with church history are facts and figures of scientific importance and world events as they occurred in the timeline of each volume. Fascinating reading made all the more gripping because it is all a 'true story'.

Each book covers a period in church history with different tiles describing the church at that time. So we have 'The Ancient Church', The Medieval Church', The Reformation Church, The Awakening Church and The Modern Church. One reviewer says…'This is history without the wooliness and with all the wonder'.
There are some charts and statistics along with important timelines. Church councils are explained, types of music described, the beginning of missionary societies recorded as well as significant world events of the times covered in each volume. Because of the qualifications of the writers, all facts are well verified and able to be substantiated.
Another intentional purpose of the books is to show that women as well as men were notable in the growth of the church and there was no gender distinction when it came to martyrdom and persecution. Many significant events over the centuries can be attributed to the persistent faith of women who laboured long and hard without much recognition in their lifetime.
Many of the accounts are written in story form which brings history to life as we read of actual happenings told as if they were occurring today. Along with church history are facts and figures of scientific importance and world events as they occurred in the timeline of each volume. Fascinating reading made all the more gripping because it is all a 'true story'.
This series can be purchased from Amazon Books. Although not on the list of books sold through the CBE Bookstore, this series purposely features many prominent women throughout Christian history.
The following is adapted from the President's Column from the Autumn 2010 issue of Mutuality, titled "Building Bridges." If you like what you read, consider subscribing or purchasing a CBE membership.

If you've been a passionate egalitarian for any length of time, you've probably heard someone say, "Yes, the egalitarian position is biblically sound, but it is not a "primary issue!" What is at the heart of such a comment? Primary issues are generally understood to mean those issues that focus on the gospel, evangelism, and the leading of the lost to Christ. Is women's shared leadership and authority a primary issue? One's perspective on gender and authority most certainly advances or diminishes the good news of the gospel. Here is one example from Emily, a woman who contacted CBE recently. She writes:
I had heard the word of God, and I felt moved by much of it…However, I was held back from this because of what I had been told….Eve [was] really responsible for all sin in the world, and not Adam, even though she didn't force him to eat the forbidden fruit….[As a woman] I was to be silent in church, and that women could not hold a position of responsibility there…it was as if God had already decided that because I am female there was nothing He cared to hear me say. And worst of all was what was to happen if I were to marry. I would become a slave to my husband, obeying his word as if it were the word of God…I left church behind and my faith in the Lord with it. I couldn't reconcile being part of a religion that had labeled me as inferior from birth.
Emily may not be trained theologically, but like most human beings, she understands when God is presented in a way that is illogical and unjust. It is because of individuals like Emily that churches, denominations, and Christian organizations are having a second look at Scripture's teaching on gender. As they do, many are discovering that egalitarians and complementarians (those who hold to a male only model of leadership) hold different worldviews. It runs deeper than simply a difference in interpretation or a matter of personal preference, and this is why so many believers challenge gender hierarchy as God's ideal. Much of our time at CBE is spent showing individuals like Emily—who have left the church, or who refuse to marry, or who have joined other religions—that Scripture does not extend authority to men just because they are male. Rather, God calls and gifts both men and women to share authority, service, and leadership.
In many ways our work as egalitarians today resembles that of several prominent evangelicals in history, who challenged a defective worldview that perceived Africans as destined by God to permanent servitude. Such a mistaken perspective distorts the key elements that shape one's worldview. These include:
What is interesting about worldviews is that a corruption in one element creates a disruption in the other elements. As slavery proponents insisted that the divine destiny of Africans was servitude (purpose); they also advanced a biblical basis for slavery (knowledge). Individuals of African descent were therefore said to possess an inferior nature (ontology), which is why they must be ruled by others (ethics). To redress the flawed worldview, abolitionists had to "put right" all four elements. That is why some early evangelicals challenged slavery with a robust biblicism (knowledge); that showed how each person is made new in Christ (ontology), and through God's Spirit, all believers are gifted for service regardless of ethnicity (purpose). This view, in turn, leveled a serious theological blow to the institution of slavery (ethics). As a more biblical worldview prevailed, slaves were freed and some flooded to the mission field, where their calling and giftedness were evident. Ultimately it became clear that slavery wasn't a matter of preference or difference in biblical interpretation, it was a worldview with eternal consequences.
In a similar manner, Christian women are often told that their divine destiny is the permanent submission to male authority (purpose), a view that, some say, is promoted throughout Scripture (knowledge); based not on a women's character, giftedness, or intimacy with Christ, but based solely on gender (ontology). Therefore, women are to obey men, and men are to hold ultimate authority over females, in the church and home (ethics). Thankfully, like abolitionists, egalitarians have made their case biblically (knowledge), that women are created as strong partners for men (Gen. 2:20) (ontology), and as such are to exercise a shared dominion with men (Gen. 1:28) (purpose). As women exercised leadership and authority on mission fields around the world, it led to one of the largest expanses in all of Christian history—the Golden Era of Missions. And, as women are given equal authority to make decisions in marriages, this not only leads to happier marriages, but also a lower incidence of abuse (ethics), according to the research of Life Innovations, Inc., the creators of the popular premarital inventory Prepare-Enrich. As believers embrace a more biblical worldview on gender, we offer a clear image of God to those who have left the church because of prejudice against females.
Does the shared leadership and authority of women and men advance a more biblical worldview? Does it promote the gospel and our capacity to reflect Jesus to the world? Katharine Bushnell said, in the early 1900s, that Christians must learn to assess women's capacity for service in the same way we assess men's—not based on the fall, but on our atonement in Christ. To do otherwise is to do violence to the gospel, to which all of Scripture and history point.]]>

The Writer's Desk: When Messages Show Up
In my last post, I ranted (who, me? rant?) about writers who put a message before the story, how messages in books will come across more powerfully if they aren't put there intentionally. How I hated people asking what message … Continue reading

47% of iPad mini sales to new customers, cannibalization concerns called 'overblown'A new survey of iPad mini buyers has found that nearly half are new to the platform, suggesting the smaller form factor will help grow Apple's market share in a big way.
The data comes from a survey of more than 1,000 U.S. consumers published on Monday by Morgan Stanley and AlphaWise. Analyst Katy Huberty said although iPad mini sales are clearly cannibalizing some full-size iPad sales, she believes concerns over this trend are "overblown."
The survey found that the iPad mini has accounted for 34 percent of planned iPad purchases, making the 7.9-inch tablet a "key demand driver" for the platform.
However, the poll did indicate that the iPad mini is currently attracting slightly fewer new users than the full-size 9.7-inch iPad. While 47 percent of iPad mini buyers said they were new to the platform, 56 percent of those buying a 9.7-inch iPad were new customers.
Huberty said these numbers show her that the cannibalization risk Apple faces with the iPad mini is "manageable."
The survey also found that Apple grew its tablet installed base the fastest of any company, and its shipment share it expected to stay flat at 50 percent in the U.S. next year. It also found that Apple again has the strongest retention rate in the industry, with 81 percent of iPad owners saying they will stick with Apple.
Among those polled who own an Amazon Kindle Fire, 7 percent said they plan to switch to an iPad, while 2 percent of Samsung tablet owners say they'll buy an Apple tablet. Thirty-six percent of those with no tablet also said they plan to buy an iPad.

Boys who reach sexual maturity more rapidly than their peers have more problems getting along with others their age and are at a higher risk for depression, according to a Cornell study published in Developmental Psychology (47:2).
Boys who mature rapidly have more problems with friendships, depression
"The dramatic physical changes of puberty are paralleled by equally dramatic social and emotional changes because boys are transitioning into the new roles and expectations that go along with biological maturity," said lead author Jane Mendle, assistant professor of human development in Cornell's College of Human Ecology. Co-authors include K. Paige Harden, University of Texas at Austin; Jeanne Brooks-Gunn, Columbia University; and Julia Graber, University of Florida.
These changes mean big adjustments not only for the individual but also for their family and social network, she said. "In cases of rapid pubertal tempo, boys may progress through puberty at a rate that is faster than the social environment can feasibly respond."
During adolescence when friendships with peers are becoming increasingly important, it may be especially difficult for rapidly maturing adolescent boys to maintain friendships with their peers who aren't developing at a comparable rate, the researchers said. Problems getting along with others their age heighten the risk for depression and future mental health problems, they said.
Although there have been many studies on the timing of puberty, Mendle and colleagues were the first to research the effects of its tempo, beginning with a study published in 2010 that found a link between pubertal tempo and depression in boys. There was no association between the tempo of puberty and depression in girls, although the study replicated the well-established finding that an earlier timing of puberty in girls was associated with depression. The study also found that early pubertal timing in boys was associated with increased depression, though the effect of timing in boys was significantly smaller than the effect of tempo.
"These findings were an important step," Mendle said, "since virtually all of the puberty research to date has been conducted on girls. Very little is known about the role puberty plays in emotional health for boys, and virtually no research had been conducted on individual differences in puberty other than timing."
The current study looks at the potential mechanisms for the links they found between pubertal tempo and depression in boys, using a sample of 128 boys between ages 8 and 12 from the New York City metropolitan area. The parents and children in the study completed annual assessments measuring the child's level of physical development, depressive symptoms and quality of peer relationships over the course of four years.
Mendle and colleagues found that while most boys experienced fewer friendship problems over the transition from childhood to early adolescence, the early maturing and the rapidly maturing boys experienced more friendship problems over time. Those with the greatest increases in friendship problems had the greatest increases in depressive symptoms. Their analysis indicated that the link between maturation and depression was due to the changes in peer relationships.
When asked about the implications of her research for parents and people working with youth, Mendle replied, "Probably the biggest advice I can give is that puberty is a highly individualized process, and the way an adolescent appears externally is no indicator of cognitive or emotional maturity."
