Funding Agency NIH-NCATS Title Institute for Integration of Medicine & Science (IIMS): A Partnership to Improve Health Status Active Period 5/2018 - 4/2023 Role Co-Investigator Grant Detail The vision of the Institute for Integration of Medicine and Science is to improve health and reduce disparities by
accelerating scientific discoveries and applications across the full translational research spectrum. We will
accomplish this by strategic resource deployment, focusing on prevalent challenges in our region, including: 1)
the health needs of our underserved Hispanic and rural populations, 2) the special health issues facing activeduty
military and veteran populations, and 3) limitations in the translational science workforce required to fill in
critical knowledge gaps and improve health in South Texas and the US. I will serve in the capacity of Medical Director of the CTSA hub liaison team with the Trial Innovation Network Funding Agency NIH-NIGMS Title Interaction of the TMEM127 tumor suppressor with the mTORC1 lysosomal activating complex Status Active Period 6/2017 - 5/2022 Role Principal Investigator Grant Detail This proposal will examine the interaction between TMEM127 and the lysosomal protein complex involved in mTORC1 activation by nutrients.
