University of Connecticut Licenses Screening Tool to Metamorphix
What happened
The University of Connecticut licensed the ESSY Whole Child Screener technology to Metamorphix. UConn’s Technology Commercialization Services facilitated the agreement. Metamorphix plans to incorporate the screening program into Cascades, a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) Whole Child platform. The screener was originally developed using a United States Department of Education Institute of Education Sciences grant.
