What’s better than a surprise visit to our recently opened Sealy Drug Discovery Institute @utmbhealth !? VP Dr. Sanja Sever has done a terrific job realizing the brand new space and is building her team. Our promise is to lead Texas to better health through discovery science.
Today, Dr. Mouton and I had the pleasure of welcoming some members of @utmbhealth's new leadership team at a reception in the Moody Medical Library Faculty Lounge. It was wonderful to engage with our new distinguished colleagues and extend a warm UTMB welcome.
