Happy 40th Anniversary to the GSBS

In the fall of 2003 the GSBS celebrated its 40th Anniversary. It has changed dramatically since 1963 when 13 students and 16 faculty members sought to answer the needs of the State of Texas through studies in three categories: biochemistry, physics and biology. Today, one of six degree-granting schools in The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences is an institution with 500 faculty (from UTHSC-H, M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, and Texas A&M University), and 1,414 graduates with 1,556 degrees. Over 450 current students are studying, inventing, designing, and developing the healthcare solutions for the future.
