Associate Professor Graham Dixon and Assistant Professor Laura Partain received a $20,000 faculty grant from The Jeffrey Schottenstein Program for Resilience for research addressing online misogyny and exploring ways for building male allyship in online and offline settings. 

The grant is awarded to support research aimed at exploring and teaching ways to use the brain's healing power and build social, emotional and thinking skills. Dixon and Partain will use the grant to develop methods to help males become stronger emotionally and encourage females to support them in online spaces.
