PSBR's mission is to promote a better public understanding of the value of biomedical research including the vital role the responsible use of animals plays in improving the quality of human and animal health.


Americans for Medical Progress is dedicated to protecting your investment in biomedical research. We focus on public outreach that builds understanding and appreciation for necessary and humane animal research. We also provide vital news, information and analysis to biomedical research stakeholders to ensure they have the resources they need to deflect campaigns that threaten the future of medical progress.


At Incyte, serving others is an integral part of our culture and who we are as a company. In addition to making a difference in the lives of patients, we also support our local communities.


The goal of our program is to educate and train the next generation of researchers, advanced educators and leaders in Psychological and Brain Sciences… We view our graduate program as integral to both our research and educational mission and we aim to provide rigorous training experiences that span coursework, scholarship, instruction and community involvement.


TSOA was created in this new digital age, for the very purpose of allowing students across the nation to showcase their creativity and passion for the field of STEM, all on a digital platform. And we don’t just stop there: TSOA allows students to digitally network with other students interested in STEM, learn from experienced professionals, and gain experience in the field, all while having the opportunity to compete nationwide and win prize money. We are making all this possible through various online platforms.


The mission of this organization is to create an inclusive and supportive community for the promotion of women in STEM at UD.


The mission of the Center for the Study of Diversity (CSD) is to promote academic research and scholarship that facilitate dialogues about and understanding of the social and academic impact of diversity. The Center brings a broadly interdisciplinary focus to its activities, projects, programs, and publications on research and analysis, training, public scholarship, community projects, and information dissemination.

Mani Garcia-Lesy

I am interested in improving access to physical/mental health education, assessment, and interventions for underserved groups.  Currently my research is focused on implementing mixed-method community based protocols with Deaf and DeafBlind adults, and disconnected emerging adults in New York City.  Innovative development and use of digital research methods are central to my work, including methods for portable central and peripheral psychophysiology and digital ecological momentary assessment.
