\n<\/TABLE>Since its inception, the Nebraska INBRE program has opened the door to careers in biomedical research for hundreds of talented youths across the state.<\/p>\n

The pipeline program reaches into community colleges, undergraduate universities and one tribal college to introduce students to research and mentoring opportunities that otherwise would be out of reach.<\/p>\n

“INBRE graduates contribute to the scientific workforce for Nebraska industry,” said James Turpen, Ph.D., principal investigator on the grant. “They pursue advanced degrees in biomedical-related areas such as science, medicine and other health profession programs.”<\/p>\n

More than 250 undergraduate students have taken part in the program, which is funded by a $17.2 million grant from the Institutional Development Award Program Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE), a
\ndivision of the National Institutes of Health. It is the state’s largest grant.<\/p>\n
