The team at CyBHOR is looking forward to welcome you to Houston Methodist for the 2017 Spring IAB meeting.
Houston is an eclectic city, with something for everyone.
Being the fourth largest city in the country, Houston has a lot to offer to its visitors. The city is a melting pot of many different cultures who add their different influences to the cuisine making this city one of the best places to try tasty food
from all around the world. Discover the artistic heart of the city by visiting its great museum district or
listening to live jazz in a bar for example. Houston also recently hosted the 51st Super Bowl and is home to many professional teams such as the Rockets, the Texans and the Dash. Of course, Houston is also home to NASA, and has a great
visitor center known as Space Center Houston. For the outdoor enthusiast, visiting Houston’s parks and outdoors is a great way
to enjoy the mild weather of Texas. The city’s focus and investment in outdoor recreation is exemplified the improvements around Buffalo Bayou. The trails and parks are a popular destination for Houstonians and visitors alike.
