NE-INBRE Scholars Program

What is INBRE?
INBRE (IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence) is a project supported by the National Institute of Health (IDeA is from Institutional Development Award). The primary focus of INBRE is to enhance the competitiveness of biomedical research in Nebraska by supporting the training of students and the research efforts of faculty.

Who is involved?
The grant is housed at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. There are three Ph.D. training campuses: University of Nebraska-Lincoln, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Creighton University Medical Center.

生物学 and 化学 are currently the only departments at 体育菠菜大平台 that provide an opportunity to be in this scholar program.

Other Undergraduate institutions are: University of Nebraska at Omaha (生物学), Wayne State College, Doane College, Creighton University, Chadron State College, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, College of Saint Mary, Nebraska Wesleyan University.

INBRE benefits
Financial support is provided for these undergraduates throughout their tenure as INBRE Scholars. 学生 are also given opportunities to attend national meetings and conferences. With the end result of the scholars program being to recruit students to graduate programs at Ph.D. granting institutions. Once a scholar has been admitted to a Ph.D. program, the INBRE project will provide support for the first year of graduate studies.
