I Heart UD Giving Day

One Fightin' Spirit. Endless Opportunities.


Every Blue Hen is fightin' for something—on the field, in the lab, in classrooms across campus

and in our communities.  This same Fightin' Blue Hen spirit fuels the success of I Heart UD Giving Day

and motivates us to come together for the causes that move UD forward.

 

This year, there's only one question that matters... What causes are YOU fightin' for?

Two University of Delaware researchers — Curtis Johnson (left), associate professor of biomedical engineering, and Austin Brockmeier (right), assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering — have found that measuring brain stiffness is a reliable way to predict brain age.
