Department Faculty Member Dr. Masood Khatamee was invited to a reception at the White House in honor of Nowruz, the Persian New Year. The reception was the culmination of years of lobbying efforts by many prominent members of the Iranian-American community, with Dr. Khatamee a leading figure among them. He is pictured here explaining the importance of fertility preservation and restoration to First Lady, Laura Bush.
