"This new facility will enable Texas A&M to play a critical role in the most advanced scientific research and teaching. It will greatly aid in our recruitment of additional high-quality faculty, in attracting significant new research grants and in enrolling the very best students at both the graduate and undergraduate levels."
- Former Texas A&M University President Robert M. Gates
The Facility

Texas A&M University is committed to working on the most difficult and important problems in the life sciences. From Alzheimer’s disease to food productivity, quality, and safety, science has long realized that complex systems govern the most puzzling aspects of these problems. The mission of the new Interdisciplinary Life Sciences Building (ILSB) will be to integrate multiple academic disciplines in the search for solutions to complex problems under the general umbrella of complex biological systems.

The building is part of a continuing effort to develop Texas A&M's life science infrastructure. (see video)
