Laura W. Bush Institute at Permian Basin: Research

Dedicated to the advancement of science in women's health

Whether it is the disease, the treatment, or prevention,
it matters whether you are a man or a woman

We must research these differences and apply the knowledge gained to clinical care. By pooling the resources and expertise from among the many organizations in Midland and Odessa, as well as the esteemed faculty at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, the potential for national prominence and excellence in research, teaching and clinical services for women's health remains within the grasp of this community.
