At its heart, Family Matters is about people: those who make UTMB strong and those we serve as we fulfill our patient care, education and research missions. The following people have dedicated their time and their talent to helping make Family Matters truly a campaign by and for the UTMB community.
They have helped shape the priority areas within the campaign and continue to educate friends and co-workers about the university and its areas of excellence. Through their enthusiasm, commitment and insight, they represent all that UTMB is and all that it can be in the future.
