Councilmember Peter Brown participated in the Leadership Grand Rounds hosted by the Methodist Hospital today. 

He met with senior residents, faculty members, and visiting professors in various departments to learn about the latest medical technologies and the Methodist Hospital’s research projects. 

Peter spoke researchers at the Methodist Research Institute to get their views on the relationship between the Medical Center and the City of Houston. Specifically, he asked for their ideas on how the City and the medical community can work together to attract the best minds to the Houston area.

"The Medical Center is one of Houston's strongest assets. The City of Houston should use the Medical Center as a marketing tool to attract the most talented workforce and related industries to the area," said Councilmember Peter Brown.
