It was an honor to welcome @utsystem Regent Nolan Perez to UTMB today for a visit across our Clear Lake, League City and Galveston campuses. Joined by Drs. Marlo Silva, William Newman and Gabriela Bedolla, along with Maria Cisneros of Texas Digestive Specialists (@TXDigestiveCare), Regent Perez had the opportunity to experience firsthand the breadth of clinical services and expertise across our health system. From labor and delivery suites and dialysis services to post-operative care and emergency medicine, the visit offered a closer look at the people and operations that make exceptional patient care possible. I was especially pleased that Regent Perez had the opportunity to engage directly with our physicians, nurses and staff whose dedication is central to everything we do. I am incredibly proud of our teams and the work taking place across UTMB Health as we continue to strengthen access to high-quality healthcare throughout our region. My sincere thanks to Regent Perez and our guests from Texas Digestive Specialists for spending the day with us.

How “scoopable” is frigid Moon soil? 🌑🥄 @NASA needs to know as it looks to build bases on the Moon and utilize resources on the surface. In response, @UTSA researchers are recreating lunar conditions in the lab to learn how ice, soil and rocks behave in extreme conditions.

In a $1 million @NASA-funded project, UT San Antonio researchers will look at how icy lunar soil behaves in the extreme cold of the moon's permanently shadowed regions. The effort, a collaboration with @SwRI, could improve the way scientists extract, transport and process resources during future lunar missions. Read more: bit.ly/3WxbcKq @UTSASciences @UTSAResearch
