2015 TAMEST Texas Research Summit

On 2015, TAMEST hosted a one-of-a-kind event, a new research summit in Texas that gathered federal agencies and Texas’ leading researchers together to highlight the outstanding research and innovation taking place in Texas. The objective of the summit was to better understand federal research priorities so that Texas institutions are more competitive in seeking federal funding.
TAMEST is a nonprofit brain trust for Texas. Our members make new discoveries, lay the groundwork for tackling critical issues, and change the course of funding, legislation and society. With over 280 members, TAMEST is composed of the Texas-based members of The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine and the state’s Nobel Laureates.
