Lauren McCarthy Awarded ADVANCE Grant

December 2, 2022 Academics

Content

Lauren McCarthy, political science, and Shannon Roberts, industrial and mechanical engineering, are co-recipients of a 2022-2023 ADVANCE Collaborative Research Seed Fund award for their project, "Understanding cybersecurity risk and resiliency for law enforcement vehicles." The selection committee notes that, "The UMass ADVANCE team was very impressed with the innovative research design and thoughtful and equitable collaboration proposed by Professors Roberts and McCarthy, and we look forward to supporting them in this work." 

Funded by the National Science Foundation to advance gender equity for faculty, UMass ADVANCE provides resources, recognition, and relationship-building needed for faculty to build inclusive communities, engage in research collaboration, and participate in shared decision-making.
