Throughout its distinguished history, UTMB has provided Texas a diverse and highly skilled health professions work force, advancements in the understanding and treatment of illness and injury, and a leading source of medical care for patients from throughout the state. Today, despite challenges posed by Hurricane Ike, UTMB remains a home of continued educational, research and clinical excellence, committed to ensuring better health—and a better life—for the people of Texas and beyond, well into the future.
Medical research at UTMB delves into a broad range of promising topics that often have immediate application to patient care. In addition, in 2008, it opened the first national laboratory in Texas - the Galveston National Laboratory for the safe study of infectious threats to human health.
