The Science News report "Former child soldiers in Africa draw on a reservoir of resilience" presents an outline of Jeannie Annan's research on former child soldiers in Uganda. At the May 5th annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association, Annan presented her research on a panel with Ishmael Beah, a former child soldier from Sierra Leone who now lives in the United States, and who wrote a 2007 book about his transition from child soldier to college graduate.
