Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
Happy New Year! We start the year on an upbeat note, as the animal facility is now pretty much back to normal and the surgical suites are functioning, thus allowing a host of other medical procedures to take place given that there is surgical backup. There is a growing awareness throughout the State that UTMB serves a vital function that extends beyond the shores of Galveston Island, and that it is crucial that restoration be made as promptly and completely as possible for the health of those living in South Texas.
