Research + Publications

As researchers and practitioners, we analyze and present our findings on the benefits of greater diversity and inclusion in science and technology. Our papers, presentations, and posters have appeared in places such as: American Behavioral Scientist, the Collaborative Network for Engineering and Computing Diversity (CoNECD) from the American Society for Engineering Education, the Collegeville Workshop, Computing in Science & Engineering Magazine, and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics 2019 Conference on Computational Science and Engineering Conference. 

Dr. Leung served on the Congressionally mandated National Academies Study of the NASA University Leadership Initiative
