"There are many challenges in this containment and eradication program," Phillip Kaufman, a professor of entomology at Texas A&M University, said in an interview with Newsweek. "Producing sufficient numbers of sterile flies and getting them released in the correct places and at the right time is critical. If the flies move further north than the isthmus in southern Mexico, it becomes more and more challenging to contain them."

Astronauts undergo years of rigorous training to spend time on the International Space Station. Still, their bodies suffer many changes while they are in microgravity. Texas A&M University's Aerospace Medicine Program is putting long-duration spaceflight at the center of its research and education, a first-of-its-kind initiative.

Scientists at Texas A&M University's Department of Aerospace Engineering are working to develop and test a 3D-printed material that aims to make spacecraft reusable and space travel greener in partnership with Canopy Aerospace.

Anna Katharine Mansfield, an associate professor of enology (the science and study of winemaking) at Cornell University, referring to Texas A&M AgriLife, a partnership involving the Texas A&M University System, said: "TAMU AgriLife extension has been providing research and technical support that helps producers fine-tune viticultural practices to suit the climate. I'm impressed with the growth I've seen in the industry, and with the high quality of wines made."

Bonnie Beaver with Texas A&M University's College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences led a recent study, with data collected from the Dog Aging Project, that surveyed over 43,517 dog owners of various breeds, ages and locations within the United States.
