With new evidence from home service workers, George Mason University researchers found that paid sick leave can function as a public health intervention.

In the College of Public Health, researchers are embracing AI’s potential while also interrogating it, testing it, and redesigning it to work better for real people. Faculty are building AI tools to detect cancer earlier, support dementia patients, guide students through biostatistics, document evidence of violence, and flag burnout in caregivers—targeting some of public health’s toughest challenges.

An interdisciplinary George Mason University research team is breaking new ground in using artificial intelligence to develop a mobile app to accurately capture and document bruises of victims of interpersonal violence.

Researchers, led by associate professor Debora Goldberg, spoke with clinicians to better understand what causes burnout and discuss strategies to improve clinician well-being.

Researchers in the College of Health and Human Services and College of Computing and Engineering seek to develop a new, quantitative approach to analyzing the age of bruise
