ABOUT STMC

The double helix. The spiral pattern within DNA. The basic building block of life.

It inspired the aluminum sculpture created by San Antonio artist Richard Harrell Rogers and installed on the grounds of the University of Texas Health Science Center. But it might equally well represent the South Texas Medical Center as a whole.

Just as life needs the blueprint for growth defined by DNA, so the Medical Center has its own blueprint for current and future development and growth. And this can be seen in the broadening scope of the Medical Center's facilities, in the continued expansion of advanced care, in the refined technology and ongoing research taking place here.
