To the UTMB Community,

As we approach Thanksgiving, I want to extend my sincere gratitude for all you do to move UTMB forward. Every day, your expertise, compassion, and commitment strengthen our mission and elevate the care, discovery, and education we provide across our communities.

This year has brought meaningful progress—and that progress is possible because of you! I continue to be inspired by the energy and purpose you bring to your work, and I am proud to stand alongside such a dedicated team.

Thank you for the professionalism, compassion, and dedication you bring to UTMB each day. Your work shapes the experiences of our patients, supports our learners, and strengthens the communities we serve.

Wishing you and your loved ones a safe and meaningful Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

Dr. Jochen Reiser, MD, PhD
