New Hospital Gets Ready for Opening Day
By Rich McManus
Don't be fooled by the relative quiet that enfolds the exterior of the new Mark O. Hatfield Clinical Research Center as workers prepare for the building's Sept. 22 dedication ceremony; indoors, the air rings with hammer blows, the whine of circular saws, and the din generated by some 600 tradesmen as they hurry to complete the new 242-bed, 80-day station hospital addition.

Rep. Chris Van Hollen | |
U.S. Congressman Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), who represents the state's 8th congressional district, where NIH is located, stopped by the Natcher auditorium on July 12 for an hour-long town hall-style meeting with employees to discuss current topics of interest and share his experiences as a freshman member of Congress. Following a morning visit to the Children's Inn at NIH, the congressman greeted NIH'ers outside the auditorium before being introduced by NIH deputy director Dr. Raynard Kington.
