Galveston County Daily News, March 20, 2007By Larry Rohde I am excited to announce one of the latest additions to the University of Houston-Clear Lake's degree program roster - the master of science in biotechnology degree. For 15 years, I have been part of the biotechnology field and I am thrilled to share my enthusiasm for it with area students. During my research and teaching, I have seen amazing discoveries in the biosciences and I am delighted by the prospect of biotechnology and its use of scientific discoveries to generate new tissues and organs. In Southeast Texas, we first watched the growth of the biotech industry in The Woodlands and, now, we are seeing its formation along the Interstate 45 corridor between the Texas Medical Center and the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston.
