COLLEGE STATION, Texas, June 18, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- John Sharp, chancellor of The Texas A&M University System, today announced that the A&M System has been awarded a contract to develop one of three U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Innovation in Advanced Development and Manufacturing.
