About
What We Do
The Anuncia Donecia Songsong Manglona Lab for Gender and Economic Equity at Penn State Law creates opportunities for Penn State Law students to learn about the past and present of gender and economic equity in law. Students contribute to Manglona Lab's economic equity research initiatives, litigation matters, and externships. In the Lab's litigation clinic, the faculty and students of Manglona Lab represent primarily appellate plaintiffs seeking economic justice in the courts. Manglona Lab externships match (and financially sponsor) PSL students working with organizations focused on gender equity legal work for course credit.
Who We Are
The Manglona Lab at Penn State Law was founded in February 2021 with an endowed gift from hacker and entrepreneur Katie Moussouris, the daughter of Anuncia Donecia Songsong Manglona, through the Pay Equity Now Foundation to honor the memory of her late mother, Anuncia Donecia Songsong Manglona, who faced her own struggles with gender and racial discrimination during her career as a Chamorro scientist working on in vitro fertilization and stem cell research.
