The center is possible thanks to a gift from the Jeffrey Modell Foundation, which is a global nonprofit that supports research, education, advocacy and public awareness of genetic immunodeficiency disorders.

The center will be directed by Jordan Orange, MD, Texas Children’s Hospital’s chief of immunology, allergy and rheumatology and professor of pediatrics, pathology and immunology at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
