Campus Scientists Flock Research Festival Features Rock, Talk and Walk By Rich McManus Photos by Rich McManus
Strung this year between the Natcher Bldg. and Masur Auditorium,
the annual Research Festival had elements of both Woodstock (a
rock-and-roll battle of the bands, see sidebar) and Woods Hole as
thousands of intramural researchers crowded three major plenary
sessions and a host of mini-symposia and poster sessions during 4
days of peace, love and sophisticated science.
Shalala Visits NIH for Updates, Questions By Rich McManus Photos by Ernie Branson
Visiting an agency she called "the crown jewel of my empire," HHS
Secretary Donna Shalala spent most of Oct. 12 at NIH, meeting
invited guests at a 15-minute Q&A session in Masur Auditorium,
lunching with student trainees at the Cloister, hearing three scientific
briefings on promising research, and getting an impressive eyeful of
construction progress on the new Mark O. Hatfield Clinical
Research Center from a perch on the adjoining Clinical Center's
11th floor.
