Center for Advancing Systems Science and Bioengineering Innovation (CASSBI) refreshed its mission and zeroed in more tightly on its translational research. The new vision of CASSBI is advancing system science and integrating innovation with medical technologies to benefit humanity.

George Mason professor Sungsoo Ray Hong has always been a huge fan of cartoons, comics, and animations. By combining his passion with his research area of human-computer interaction, he has created a new tool for cartoonists, ShadowMagic.

Hong, his colleague Yotam Gingold, and their PhD students published a paper, “ShadowMagic: Designing Human-AI Collaborative Support for Comic Professionals’ Shadowing,” elucidating the need for the tool, which aims to boost product quality and designer productivity through study-informed human-AI interaction.

Biomedical engineering has been an up-and-coming career field for years, but graduating and getting that first job can feel like scaling a cliff. At George Mason’s bioengineering department, however, the faculty, staff, and fellow students collaborate to rig their future colleagues a safety net.

Research Interests: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Educational Technology, Personalized Learning

The intersection of art and technology has long been a space for innovation, creativity, and exploration. At George Mason’s Mason Autonomy and Robotics Center (MARC) located within the College of Engineering and Computing, this connection has taken center stage with the Integrating Art and Tech Project.

With the opening of the new Visualization and Virtual Reality Lab in Research Hall, George Mason has the opportunity to be part of this global movement and to be a leader in transdisciplinary research.

Students from George Mason University’s Competitive Cybersecurity (MCC) club have dominated in multiple national competitions. The team got 1st place in the 2024 VMI CyberFusion and 2nd place in the 2024 Spring National Cyber League. Next, the students will be competing in the inaugural DistrictCon Hacker Conference on February 21-22.

In the recently announced U.S. News & World Report rankings, the College of Engineering and Computing’s (CEC) online master’s programs rose.

On this episode of Access to Excellence, President Gregory Washington and Amarda Shehu discuss the research possibilities of AI and the role of higher education in AI training and development.

George Mason University bioengineering student Andy Gomez is a busy guy. Not only is he working on a year-long internship with the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), he is also a part-time clinical research assistant at the Inova Schar Cancer Institute.
