President Betsy Cantwell was recently selected to serve on Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson’s newly formed Space Council.

The mission of the council is to advise the governor on how to keep the state competitive in the space industry. It is also tasked with identifying ways Washington can improve its standing as a global leader in the field.

Cantwell brings a wealth of expertise in space-related fields to the council. Prior to her work in higher education, she spent more than two decades in leadership roles at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as well as Oak Ridge and Los Alamos national laboratories advancing national priorities in space exploration, energy, and defense. This work included collaborations with NASA, the National Nuclear Security Administration, as well as the U.S. departments of energy and defense.

“I’m honored to be selected to serve on this council and look forward to working with my colleagues to ensure Washington remains a world-renowned destination for the advancement of space technology development and manufacturing,” Cantwell said.

In addition to representatives from WSU and the University of Washington, the council includes representatives from the commercial space industry, aerospace and advanced manufacturing sectors, among others.

The council was formed earlier this week via an executive order signed at the Museum of Flight in Seattle.

A milestone more than a decade in the making, the Washington State University Family Medicine Residency Program at Pullman Regional Hospital celebrated the graduation of its first class of resident physicians — Dr. Jeff Ward and Dr. Mohammed Younes — this summer.

The Family Medicine Residency Center has conducted more than 7,000 patient visits since opening in 2023, including 3,200 in 2025 alone. More than 2,000 patients, many of whom did not have an established care team, now have a resident physician as a primary care provider.

“Many people made this residency program possible, but Dr. Younes and Dr. Ward helped build it,” said Program Director Dr. Stephen Hall. “I couldn’t be prouder of the physicians they’ve become and the difference they have already made in our community.”
