MA Squared (aka MA^2, MA2, or MASquared) is a research app built by SF BUILD. The MA^2 app seeks to gain insight into the microaggressions and microaffirmations that students encounter in various learning environments. Users are able to submit detailed reports about their experiences that include information such as date, location, and emotions felt.

SF BUILD is led by San Francisco State University (SFSU) in partnership with University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Our mission is to enhance diversity of the biomedical research workforce by transforming the teaching and research environments at SF State.
