Catalyst Awards
Catalyst Research Award Winners
For the inaugural TXST CADS 2024 Catalyst Research Awards, we are glad to have received 15 high-quality submissions from 23 faculty in 12 departments/schools. After the extensive review of the evaluation committee of five faculty and staff, TXST CADS is excited to provide four CADS 2024 Innovation Seed Awards and six CADS 2024 Collaborative Growth Awards. We are looking forward to providing tailored research support services to all submissions and serving faculty to further develop their research goals.
