Recent accomplishments and upcoming initiatives at the Frederick National Laboratory (FNL) were the hottest topics at the recent Frederick National Laboratory Advisory Committee (FNLAC) meeting. Here are some excerpts, accompanied by time stamps from the videocast.

Former Werner H. Kirsten (WHK) intern Janine Bahsali, who will be attending Adler University this fall to pursue a doctorate in clinical psychology, credits her internships at NCI at Frederick with starting her down the path toward a Ph.D. Bahsali joined the WHK Student Intern Program during her senior year of high school, working in Occupational Health Services with mentor Sarah Hooper.

The lobby of Building 549 at NCI at Frederick bustled with activity for two hours on Tuesday, May 1, as several dozen scientists and staff gathered for the NCI Core Open House. The event aimed to encourage discussion and educate visitors about the capabilities of the cores, laboratories, and facilities that offer support to NCI’s Center for Cancer Research.

Clouds and rain finally gave way this week just in time for Occupational Health Services’ March on the Monocacy event. More than 20 people came out to enjoy the beautiful spring day and walk the 1.4-mile course at the Advanced Technology Research Facility.

Whether it’s in a flowerbed or an art gallery, former Werner H. Kirsten (WHK) student intern Nathalie Walker can’t help but to cause a buzz. Since completing her WHK internship in the summer of 2015, Walker has been attending Loyola University Maryland, where she is striving to make a positive impact on campus.
