The Ted and Donna Lyon Center for Gamebird Research at East Texas A&M University is an internationally recognized hub for gamebird research. Established in 2023 by a generous donation from Ted and Donna Lyon and led by founding director Dr. Kelly Reyna, the center's mission is to discover solutions for sustainable gamebird populations through innovative research, education and collaboration.

Our focus is on population sustainability of upland gamebirds and waterfowl. What makes us unique is our comprehensive research spanning life stages from embryo to adult and taking place in our state-of-the-art laboratory and in the wild on our large-scale research stations.

With the success of our research we are now building a new gamebird research and education facility, with construction starting on phase 1 in 2024.
