On May 28, the Nebraska Institutional Development Award Program (IDeA) Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE) program welcomed 28 undergraduate students from across Nebraska as they embarked on their summer research experience at Creighton University, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
\n 
\nThe INBRE program is overseen by Paul Sorgen, Ph.D., a professor in the department of biochemistry and molecular biology at UNMC and principal investigator of the $16.2 million National Institutes of Health grant that supports the program.
\n 
\nEstablished in 2001, the INBRE program was created to expose students to serious biomedical research, build a statewide biomedical research infrastructure between undergraduate and graduate institutions and to strengthen undergraduate institution's infrastructure and increase its capacity to conduct cutting-edge biomedical and behavioral research.
\n 
\nThe students, referred to as INBRE Scholars, enter the program after completing their sophomore year of college upon recommendation by their college professors. The students receive a two-year scholarship and spend 10 weeks each summer conducting research on either their home campus or at UNMC, UNL or Creighton University.
\n 
\nAt the end of the summer, the students attend the INBRE annual meeting where they give an oral presentation on their research project.
\n 
\nThe following is a list of the INBRE Scholars and their schools:
\n 
\nChadron State College – Lelisse Umeta
\nCollege of Saint Mary – Nicole McPhillips and Emma Turner
\nCreighton University – Taylor Burke, Diego Gomez, Nicole Haen, Kelsey Jackson, Rebekah Rapoza and Lindsey Theut
\nDoane College – Ali Osborn, Tyler Sherrill and Grace Su
\nNebraska Wesleyan University – Kristine Hoagstrom, Leah Treffer and Jenna Whitmore
\nUniversity of Nebraska at Kearney – Sydney Keckler, Joshua Lindenberger, Wuilian Martinez and Samantha Rau
\nUniversity of Nebraska-Lincoln – Lily Foley, Kai Johnson and Delaney Villarreal
\nUniversity of Nebraska at Omaha – Evie Ehrhorn, LeeAnna Lui, Pranav Ojha, Elias Smith and Gabrielle Moore
\nWayne State College – Luis "Daniel" Estrella
