Identifying upcoming seminars, workshops, funding announcements, events, and conferences of interest to VTPP. I hope it serves as an accessible archive and reference for upcoming research events and deadlines, and sources of information to support our next discoveries.
VTPP Science Friday conversations have been informative and stimulating. All faculty are encouraged to attend these important research- and mission-focused discussions. The next Science Friday is scheduled for Thursday 8:30AM, December 12. The goal remains to bring all interested faculty together over coffee and bagels, to brainstorm what might be possible and to initiate more science-based conversations in VTPP. If you are interested in joining or facilitating the discussion around your research interest or have specific aims for discussion, just let Dr. Suva know and come present and stimulate the conversation.

Texas A&M Research Cores
The Office of Research Compliance and Biosafety, although not strictly a Texas A&M Core facility, provides a wealth of information for researchers. In particular, new guidance and information from the IACUC is linked to this page. The Division of Research, through Research Compliance and Biosafety, is responsible for providing training and support to faculty, students, and staff in regulatory requirements for scientific research at Texas A&M. I encourage all to take a good look at the resources to be found there. The link to the office and to the login page for TAMU faculty/researchers can be found at:
