George Mason becomes new home for 400,000 biological specimens from Inova Health Systems
The College of Public Health is the new home of 400,000 biological specimens through a partnership with Inova Health Systems. This repository of specimens, called a biobank, is an extensive collection of obstetrical and perinatal samples, along with follow-up health information, providing a rare and invaluable asset in public health and in the education of our future health, science, and technology care workforce.
Festival management class puts students at the heart of cultural conservation and celebration in Washington, D.C.
If you visit the National Mall in Washington, D.C., during the last week of June, you’ll be greeted with the sights and sounds of a multicultural celebration at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival. Music and dance performances, cooking demonstrations, hands-on workshops, and education sessions: Every tent offers a view of the world from a different cultural perspective. And for George Mason University students in the cross-listed Folklore and Festival Management course, it’s the internship opportunity of a lifetime.
