About Us
The Office of Team Science at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) is a new initiative established in the spring of 2024 with the intent of fostering collaboration and facilitating interdisciplinary research. Our goal is to serve as a hub for connecting researchers and physicians from various disciplines, thereby facilitating the formation of interdisciplinary teams to tackle complex scientific questions and health challenges. As a result, we are uniquely positioned to forge collaborations across the John Sealy School of Medicine, the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, the School of Nursing, the School of Health Professions, and the School of Public and Population Health.
Currently, we are working to establish a campus-wide biorepository, expanding our collaboration with the World Health Organization, developing new opportunities for industry partnerships, and designing a new team science pilot fund. In the future, we will offer support in grant development, project management, symposia creation, and institutional/industry collaborations. Through these initiatives, the Office of Team Science at UTMB hopes to accelerate scientific discovery and impact by breaking down silos and promoting collaboration across disciplines.
