He spends his free time in the theatre, perfecting the art of applied silence. He is slowly learning to call himself a chemist, partially due to the fact that Doane College does not offer an alchemy program.<\/p>\n<p><B>Has science always been a part of your life? <\/B><\/p>\n<p>Science became important in my life during high school in the chemistry and physics labs of Melanie Baker (chemistry teacher) and the late Mike DeField (physics) at Farmington (Minn.) High School. They taught me that the world does make sense when you know the rules, and also some of the most important lessons in ethics I ever received. I am forever indebted to these two amazing educators.<\/p>\n<p><B>How is it important to you? <\/B><\/p>\n<p>Science is the questioning, that great search for truth. It&#8217;s the rules of the game we have to obey. The deeper you go into science, the more important you find that it is.<\/p>\n<p><B>Why did you choose to participate in the BRIN program? <\/B><\/p>\n<p>I joined the BRIN program to see what research was truly all about, and to dive into the world of scientific research and see if I know how to swim.<\/p>\n<p><B>What do you hope to gain from the program? <\/B><\/p>\n<p>To figure out my future, to see if this is the path that I should take. But above all else, to figure out, &#8220;why.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twenty-two students from eight different undergraduate and community college programs have joined the Institutional Development Award Program (IDeA) Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE)\/ Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network (BRIN) program. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32533","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","department-unmc-today-todays-headlines"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>BRIN scholars on campus -- meet Frank Miller<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Twenty-two students from eight different undergraduate and community college programs have joined the Institutional Development Award Program (IDeA) Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE)\/ Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network (BRIN) program.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/2008\/07\/01\/brin-scholars-on-campus-meet-frank-miller\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"BRIN scholars on campus -- meet Frank Miller\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Twenty-two students from eight different undergraduate and community college programs have joined the Institutional Development Award Program (IDeA) Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE)\/ Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network (BRIN) program.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/2008\/07\/01\/brin-scholars-on-campus-meet-frank-miller\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Newsroom\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/unmcedu\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2008-07-01T05:00:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/ChetMiller608.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Karen Burbach\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@unmc\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@unmc\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Karen Burbach\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.unmc.edu\\\/newsroom\\\/2008\\\/07\\\/01\\\/brin-scholars-on-campus-meet-frank-miller\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.unmc.edu\\\/newsroom\\\/2008\\\/07\\\/01\\\/brin-scholars-on-campus-meet-frank-miller\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Karen Burbach\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.unmc.edu\\\/newsroom\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/ee8fa869fc007fb3f02acf871a6c41d8\"},\"headline\":\"BRIN scholars on campus &#8212;
