These are the development and testing of internet-delivered resilience training and a comprehensive research program to characterize the experiences of women who are pursuing and leaving PhD programs in STEM disciplines.
a 13-year-old nonprofit working to further the progress of women and others underrepresented in fields of science, technology, engineering, and math. We have matched more than 30,000 mentors to protégés and guided their one-on-one relationships with our unique e-mentoring program.
