Yale School of Medicine
In November 2015, Artech donated $1 million to the Yale School of Medicine to fund Dermatology-Autoimmune Research.
With this donation, Artech established the Artech Resource Fund for Dermatology Diseases, thus, re-iterating its commitment towards advanced research in the field of science and medicine.
The funds provided by the Ranjini and Ajay Poddar Resource Fund for Dermatologic Diseases Research aided in studies that led the researchers to theorize that Janus Kinase (JAK) – signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling could play a role in treating certain forms of sarcoidosis.

Hackensack University Medical Center
Funding Autoimmune Research
In August 2013, Artech donated $1 million to the Hackensack University Medical Center Foundation to fund the “Artech Autoimmune Cell Re-Education Study.” The donation funded the efforts of Dr. Yong Zhao, whose pioneering research and clinical trials on Type One Diabetes have been expanded to cover a wide range of autoimmune diseases.
Artech believes that this funding will help millions of Americans who are inflicted with autoimmune diseases such as Type One Diabetes, Alopecia Areata, Multiple Sclerosis, Crohn’s Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Celiac Disease. This will in turn help advance this research to find a cure that will help millions of children in the U.S. and across the world.

On behalf of Artech, Ranjini Poddar is involved with several clients as a mentor to women-owned businesses. One of the significant programs is the NMSDC’s Emerging Young Entrepreneurs program.

A uniquely designed year-long program, EYE provides the next generation of minority and women millennial entrepreneurs who support the needs of corporate members, MBEs, and additional stakeholders.
Informally, Ranjini Poddar has been mentoring smaller minority and women business owners for years.
In 2008, she engaged the Artech team in a program called AIM (Ask Impressive MBE) organized by the NY-NJ Minority Supplier Development Council.
