UST, Baylor College of Medicine Collaborate for Post-Doctoral Training
10/17/2008
The University of St. Thomas and Baylor College of Medicine recently announced a new post-doctoral Institutional Research and Academic Career Development Award training grant from the National Institute of Health.

This four-year, $5 million grant allows post-doctoral students to partner with a Baylor College of Medicine mentor to continue their development as cutting-edge researchers. They will also partner with a mentor from one of three universities in the Houston area including UST, the University of Houston Downtown and/or Prairie View A&M University to help develop/update curricula and teach.

Faculty from UST’s Departments of Biology and Chemistry will serve as teaching mentors, and Dr. John Palasota, associate dean of the School of Arts and Sciences and associate professor of chemistry, will serve as the UST program coordinator.

“This program will increase the supply of faculty with cutting-edge research prepared to teach and update curricula,” Palasota said.
