From the Founding Director |
|
|
An early encounter in the establishment of the External Advisory Board (EAB) of the Hagler Institute for Advanced Study happened in 2011 at a meeting of the National Academy of Engineering. I approached Norm Augustine, former CEO of Lockheed Martin Corporation, and asked him to chair the External Advisory Board. Intrigued by the mission of the Institute and having had a son attend Texas A&M, Norm was happy to accept. He then asked me who else was on the board. I told him nobody, yet. Then he asked about the state of the Institute, and I informed him that the formation of the institute had been approved, but no Fellows of the Institute had yet been recruited. Norm responded, “So I just agreed to chair the advisory board that does not yet exist, for an institute that also does not yet exist?”
I am happy to report that the institute now exists and is a permanent, unique feature of the university. The Hagler Institute has emerged as a major force for excellence at Texas A&M, thanks in part to our EAB, still chaired, by the way, by Norm Augustine. The members of the EAB use their proven expertise in the management of organizations to improve the Hagler Institute, and several board members led by Jon Hagler have made vital contributions to our endowment.
The Hagler Institute’s EAB is one of the most prestigious academic advisory groups in the nation. Their national stature, advice, advocacy, and financial support have been crucial to the success of the institute. In this newsletter you will find information about our current EAB, our new members, and our former members. The newsletter also includes select news about symposiums and activities of Hagler Fellows since our last issue.
The staff of the Hagler Institute is currently helping recruit Fellows of the class of 2023-2024. This new group of world-class scholars will be announced in September. While this class is yet to be finalized, it will certainly be another large cadre of highly accomplished individuals. We are grateful to our donors and for the support from Texas A&M leadership. You make possible our mission of excellence.
Best Wishes,

HUDA ZOGHBI GIVES THE EMINENT SCHOLAR LECTURE
Dr. Huda Zoghbi, a Distinguished Lecturer of the Hagler Institute, presented the Institute’s spring 2023 Eminent Scholar Lecture, titled “Molecular Neurobiological Studies in Rett Syndrome and MECP2 Disorders.”
Dr. Zoghbi is the Founding Director of the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston, where she has assembled a broad team with a variety of backgrounds, from computer science to robotics and from various medical disciplines to electrical engineers. Dr. Zoghbi manages to continue basic research, in addition to translational research for applications of new knowledge.
Dr. Zoghbi is a visionary with a remarkable career of medical discovery and help for the human condition. Among other breakthroughs, she discovered the gene that causes Rett Syndrome, a devasting developmental disorder seen mostly in females, as males cannot survive long with that gene problem. Rett Syndrome causes life-long loss of use of hands, loss of speech, development of seizures, and often severe scoliosis.
There is an ironic link between Dr. Zoghbi’s research and the Hagler Institute. Associate Director Clifford Fry’s daughter, Ashley, was the first person with Rett Syndrome that Dr. Zoghbi saw when she was an intern, shortly after the disorder became known in the United States. Dr. Zoghbi credits Ashley with inspiring her, and 16 years later, Dr. Zoghbi had Ashley as her special guest at the announcement of her discovery that the MECP2 gene is an important cause of Rett Syndrome. Ashley’s pictures are in medical journals and conference presentations.
Dr. Zoghbi is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine, the National Academy of Sciences, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. She is Distinguished Service Professor of Pediatrics, Molecular and Human Genetics, Neurology and Neuroscience at Baylor College of Medicine, and is an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
Dr. Zoghbi’s other honors are prestigious and varied. Among others, she was recently awarded The Elaine Redding Brinster Prize for her impact on the field of biomedicine. She earned the Kavli Prize for her breakthroughs in the field of neuroscience. The Lundbeck Foundation awarded Dr. Zoghbi the prestigious Brain Prize for ground-breaking impact on brain research.

ANDREA RINALDO IS AWARDED THE PRESTIGIOUS WATER PRIZE
When Andrea Rinaldo became a Fellow of the Hagler Institute for Advanced Study in 2018, he was widely recognized as one of the world’s leading experts in hydrologic sciences. Among his approximately three hundred journal articles, and particularly his 1993 publication in Physical Review Letters titled “On the Structure of River Networks and their Functioning as Ecological Corridors,” Rinaldo has had a major impact on hydrology, ecology, and environmental sciences. He teamed with the late Ignacio Rodríguez Iturbe, Texas A&M’s renowned faculty member in the same field of study, to publish the 1997 book Fractal River Basins, which provides a theoretical framework for the arrangement of branching networks of river basins.
The COVID pandemic delayed some of Rinaldo’s visits to Texas A&M from his work at Switzerland’s Ecole Polytechnique Federale Lausanne and Italy’s University of Padua, but it did not stop his A&M based collaborations. In 2020, Rinaldo and Rodríguez Iturbe, with their co-author, Marino Gatto, published River Networks as Ecological Corridors: Species, Populations, Pathogens, a book which includes studies on the spread and control of waterborne diseases, among other topics.
We have recently learned the exciting news that Rinaldo was chosen by the Royal Swedish Academy of Science for the prestigious 2023 Stockholm Water Prize, which is viewed as a Nobel Prize in Water. The prize is awarded for contributions to conservation and protection of water resources and to the wellbeing of the planet. The nominating committee stated,
“Andrea Rinaldo is a thought leader in hydrologic science who’s conceptual and quantitative models have provided in-depth understanding to the fields of hydrogeomorphology and ecohydrology. In his research he has shown the key connections between river networks and the spread of solutes, aquatic species, and diseases.”
Rinaldo’s laboratory has shown how river systems self-organize into dynamically accessible optimal states, which is important to understand when talking about water pollution and contamination. Dr. Rinaldo’s research group has studied cholera, schistosomiasis, and proliferative kidney disease in fish, offering new tools for prediction.
Professor Rinaldo is a foreign member of both the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and the U.S. National Academy of Engineering, as well as the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Among his other accomplishments, he has won the Hydrologic Sciences Award from the American Geophysical Union.
Rinaldo will receive the Water Prize from King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden in August 2023. He will be returning soon to Texas A&M, as he is now an affiliated faculty member in Texas A&M’s Department of Ocean Engineering.

Provost Alan Sams Signs Agreement with Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings |
|
Major General Earl Rudder, ’32, Texas A&M President and WWII hero, made dramatic changes at Aggieland in the 1960s, not the least of which was making the Corps of Cadets non-compulsory and opening the university to women. He was heard to say he was going to set A&M on a path to become the MIT of the south. Well guess what. If you are a Ph.D. student at MIT and want to go to the prestigious Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings, then you have to, you guessed it, apply through Texas A&M University. Going forward, a national competition will identify ten non-A&M students to attend the Lindau meetings, while Texas A&M will conduct a local competition to find ten TAMU student and faculty attendees each year. WHOOP!
Once again, the Hagler Institute proves its worth. The A&M/Lindau connection came about initially through two people connected with the Hagler Institute. One is Stefan H.E. Kaufmann, one of the world’s most cited scholars. Kaufmann is also a 2018-2019 Hagler Fellow who just recently completed his time in the institute. As Founding Director of the Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology located in Berlin, Germany, Kaufmann has played a crucial role on the scientific council of the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings for years.
As a Hagler Fellow at Texas A&M, Kaufmann developed a close association with Texas A&M University Distinguished Professor in Veterinary Medicine, Joerg Steiner. Steiner is the 2022-2023 Faculty Liaison for the Hagler Institute, which led to visits to the Lindau meetings by Steiner and some A&M students in 2022 and also in 2023. Joerg Steiner is the current President of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine and holder of the Dr. Mark Morris Chair in A&M’s School of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. Steiner was instrumental in conveying the message to university administration that there was an opportunity for Texas A&M to play a central role for the United States in the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings.
Texas A&M is blessed with leaders who are focused on A&M’s advancement. Our previous President M. Katherine Banks, Acting President General (Ret.) Mark A. Welsh III, Provost Alan Sams, Vice President for Research, Jack Baldauf, President of the Texas A&M Foundation, Tyson Voelkel, Director of the Hagler Institute, John Junkins, and Joerg Steiner, Director of the Gastrointestinal Laboratory, committed funds to make the A&M - Lindau partnership a reality.

Ian Down
Bradley L. Worsham '88
Fellowship Recipient
Ian Down is a Ph.D. student in aerospace engineering who plans on graduating in the spring of 2025. From September 2022 through August 2023, Ian was supported by a fellowship made possible by an endowment for the Hagler Institute. The endowment was provided by a graduate in aerospace engineering and successful entrepreneur, Bradley L. Worsham ’88. Brad was serving as a Professor of the Practice in Aerospace Engineering when he endowed this graduate fellowship. According to Director Junkins, "you know you are doing things right when the faculty are voting with some of their own life savings." This support allowed Ian the time to collaborate with Dr. Kathleen C. Howell, a 2019-2020 Hagler Fellow from Purdue University, and her A&M faculty host, Dr. Terry Alfriend.
Ian is applying Center Manifold Theory, a subset of Dynamical Systems Theory, to investigate the limits of linear approximations of relative motion between different families of quasi-periodic invariant tori and their associated periodic orbits. His work aims to illuminate fundamental relative motions in the Circular Restricted Three Body Problem, which is important for the design of spacecraft formation flying missions about libration points. Ian has benefited greatly from Dr. Howell and her students’ expertise in numerical computation in the field of astrodynamics. His work will be presented at the American Astronautical Society’s Astrodynamics Specialist Conference in Big Sky, Montana in August 2023.
This connection of A&M graduate students to professors and students from other universities expands the awareness by others of the great work going on at Texas A&M and accelerates development of our students and faculty through valuable interaction with other top researchers in their field. The impact of Brad Worsham’s endowment will live on throughout the professional life of Ian Down, as he strives to impact space exploration through his contributions to the field of astrodynamics. Of course, Ian is just one of an infinite sequence of excellent students who will benefit from their generosity. Thank you Brad and Liz.

Sarea Recalde Phillips
Mary and Charles Gregory, ’64
Fellowship Recipient
Mary and Charles Gregory, ’64, have been generous to Texas A&M with their time and resources. Charles Gregory earned a bachelor’s degree in economics from Texas A&M and a law degree from the University of Texas, and he subsequently served as an intelligence officer in Vietnam and Thailand. He is currently the President and director of Rupley Holdings, Inc. in Houston. For seven years he was a trustee of the A&M Foundation, and he served on A&M’s “One Spirit, One Vision” capital campaign executive committee. In 2020, Mary and Charles Gregory, ’64, established an endowment for the Hagler Institute to award fellowships so students can work with one of the world-class scholars the institute brings to Texas A&M.
Sarea Recalde Phillips is an advanced Ph.D. student in A&M’s Department of Biomedical Engineering. In January 2023, the Hagler Institute awarded her a Mary and Charles Gregory, ’64, fellowship to work with 2021-2022 Hagler Fellow, Dr. Jennifer Elisseeff. Sarea is the first of many outstanding students to benefit from the generosity of Mary and Charles' endowment. Thank you Mary and Charles!
Each summer, the recipients of a fellowship from the Hagler Institute provide a report about their activities. Recalde Phillips’ fellowship continues until the end of December 2023, so her report reflects work during one semester. Leaving out much of the technical explanation, Philips says that her research focus is on “… click chemistry, a class of chemistry defined by rapid kinetics and high specificity, and its use in hydrogel formation and therapeutics delivery.”
Recalde Phillips is in good hands because Dr. Elisseeff has made outstanding contributions in multiple fields related to Phillip’s interests. She has appointments in Chemical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science, and Orthopedic Surgery at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Elisseeff is the Morton Goldberg Professor and Director of the Translational Tissue Engineering Center at Johns Hopkins Department of Biomedical Engineering and the Wilmer Eye Institute. Dr. Elisseeff is an elected member of the National Academy of Engineering and the National Academy of Medicine.
Recalde Phillips writes that the collaboration with Dr. Elisseeff has allowed her to expand her knowledge in biomaterials. Furthermore, she has been chosen for a program that will connect her to a mentor in industry who will help her translate research findings into improved health care products for the public.
Accelerating the next generation of innovators such as Ian and Sarea is at the heart of what the Hagler Institute for Advanced Study is all about. Congratulations to Ian and Sarea! Now go surf the wave of innovation underwritten by the Worsham and Gregory families!
