Mission

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 that is the focus of this programming effort is not a single, isolated structure, but part of a continuing effort to develop Texas A&M’s life science infrastructure. This includes renovations to existing and future buildings. Other portions of this effort include a new Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging facility (in partnership with the Texas A&M Health Science Center), a new wing for the Veterinary Research Tower and an expansion to the Comparative Medicine Program's facilities.
