What this research studies
NH-INBRE brings together multiple New Hampshire institutions to strengthen undergraduate research experiences and career development in biomedicine. It funds administrative coordination, faculty collaboration, and shared core resources in bioinformatics and bioscience. The program also aims to improve statewide data science education and infrastructure so students gain practical skills for modern biomedical research. By linking colleges with Dartmouth and UNH, the network facilitates collaborations that enhance research quality and funding success. The focus is on people, partnerships, and capacity building that can sustain biomedical discovery in the state.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, students and institutions will gain hands-on research opportunities and stronger pipelines to biomedical careers and external funding.
How similar studies have gone: Previous NH-INBRE activities have built research capacity and collaboration across institutions, with ongoing program renewal.
