Today, October 10, is World Mental Health Day, and with it, an opportunity to shed light on the quiet struggles and private resilience of the millions globally affected by mental health challenges. This year’s theme,  “Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change” Emphasizes the importance of listening to those experiences. In that spirit of empathy and action, we highlight five projects by recent Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) finalists using STEM to explore questions across the spectrum of mental health research.
