UD News Coverage

So you've made a major research discovery — cheers for you! — and you're ready to report it to the world. Before proceeding further, you need to make sure your findings are properly protected. Is there an invention or technique that should be patented, for example? Take a look at our Intellectual Property Guide, and if you have questions, contact Intellectual Property and Technology Transfer within UD Research and Graduate Studies and talk over your research with them.

If your results already are adequately protected, contact the Research Communications Initiative in the Office of Public Relations. The staff and their colleagues can work with you to develop a news article, pitch the story to major media likely to be interested in interviewing you, or help to arrange a press conference if appropriate.

The University's research discoveries are published on:

• UDaily, the University's online news service, currently reaching more than 30,000 subscribers.
