A collaboration between Georgetown University and the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research aims to expand research and training missions in the biomedical sciences for both institutions.

Representatives from Georgetown and the Frederick National Laboratory signed a memorandum of understanding that paves the way for appointments and exchange of scientific staff, sabbatical opportunities, student training, postdoctoral fellowships and student internships aimed at enhancing the institutions’ quality of science, technology, and education.

The new framework builds on past collaborations between Georgetown and Frederick researchers and formalizes an ongoing relationship.
