While much has changed over GW’s 200 years,
what endures is our never-ending
commitment to creating a
greater world.
MAKE AN IMPACT

GW Research is Transforming Lives
Every day, researchers at the George Washington University take on some of the world’s toughest challenges, delivering real-world impact and insights through their relentless pursuit of knowledge and a deeper understanding of our world. From advancing cancer therapies and the prevention of diabetes in at-risk populations, to building trustworthy AI systems and next-generation computer chips, much of their work is made possible through vital federal investments.
With support from the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, NASA, the Department of Defense and other federal agencies, GW advances medical innovations, fuels economic growth, and prepares the next generation of leaders.
