The Texas Medical Center's Innovation Institute has just celebrated five years of advancing new technologies within health care, and over the past year, the institute has evolved to set up the TMC for its next years of innovation.

"In 2019, we had a lot of big changes around our team and our leadership," says Emily Reiser, senior manager of innovation community engagement at TMC. "That enabled us to take a bigger breath and a bigger pause to say, 'How are we really doing? And how could we be doing better?'"

Reiser joins the Houston Innovators Podcast this week to discuss the flurry of changes and goings on within the TMC Innovation Institute, from the new cancer therapeutics accelerator program to the recently announced redesign of TMCx — the deadline to apply for the next cohort is December 13.

Reiser also discusses TMC's BioBridge program, ABB's new space for testing lab robots, and some of the startups she's most excited about. Listen to it below and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
