Biomedical Sciences

Research is
a team sport.

The Research Collaboration Experience connects Ann Richards School students with authentic scientific inquiry and the practice of working alongside research professionals.

Research Collaboration Experience

From curiosity to evidence.

Through collaboration with Dr. Al MacKrell at The University of Texas at Austin, students experience research as a living process: asking focused questions, building laboratory skill, interpreting evidence, and communicating what they discover.

This page is designed to grow with the collaboration. Confirmed project details, research questions, student reflections, and outcomes can be added as they are approved.
