Civil engineering professor David Lattanzi teams up with colleagues in the College of Public Health to help build a new tool that will help clinicians identify bruises and injuries from domestic violence in a new way.

Pei Dong, an assistant professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, was recently awarded a National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER award for her work on the multi-scale manufacturing of carbon nanostructures.

During her time at Mason, Mason alumna Shrishti Singh has used all the tools the university provides to bring her discovery to the marketplace.

The funding will help develop new tools in imaging technology using a light source that is five times better than white light for identifying and visualizing bruising across all skin tones for use by forensic nurses, social service providers, and law enforcement.

Xuan Wang, an assistant professor in George Mason University’s Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, is trying to ensure safety in human-computer autonomous systems.

A collaboration between George Mason University and the Inova Health System is yielding new approaches to determine the likelihood of organ rejection in young heart transplant recipients.

Mason bioengineering majors hope that their capstone project will help individuals with prosthetic limbs live more comfortable lives.

Bioengineering undergraduates demonstrate how a virtual reality-based physical rehabilitation system can improve patient outcomes.

Mason has joined more than 200 of the nation’s leading artificial intelligence (AI) stakeholders to participate in a Department of Commerce initiative to support the development and deployment of trustworthy and safe AI.

While useful technology, drones can pose a serious security risk. Systems engineering and operations research undergraduates Dyar Aziz and Markus Garretson are working to develop a methodology for inferring drone intent based on sensor data.
