The Texas Regional CTSA Consortium, under the national Clinical and Translational Science Awards program supported by the National Institutes of Health, has just awarded UTMB a grant worth $5.7 million and designated it the flagship institution for a new University of Texas System research network. The UT System Proteomics Core Facility Network was started by Patricia Hurn, the UT System vice chancellor for research and innovation, and will be led by program director and researcher, Alexander Kurosky from UTMB. The network will bring together all proteomics-related resources, experts, and research and development from all UT System affiliates. UTMB will be working closely with other UT System institutions, including UT Austin, UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, UT Arlington, UT Health Science Center at Tyler and UT Southwestern Medical Center.
