The IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE) is a grant awarded by NIH through the National Institutes of Health Institutional Development Award (IDeA) Program. The award will bring over $17 million in research funding to fourteen Oklahoma institutions. 

The Network is diverse, comprising two lead institutions whose primary missions are biomedical research, education and patient care, and twelve collaborating institutions. Oklahoma's INBRE builds State capacity to carry out biomedical research by supporting promising new faculty, recruiting students into biomedical research careers, and sustaining vital core facilities. 

The scientific themes of Oklahoma's INBRE are multi-disciplinary, targeting the fields of Microbiology & Immunology, Cancer, and Neurosciences. This thematic focus is closely linked with the strategic research plans of the two lead biomedical research-intensive institutions. Support for students is provided by summer internships, participation in the faculty research projects and enrollment in new educational programs in bioinformatics and genomics. The primary core facilities are focused on functional genomics. An integrated network of bioinformatics facilities dedicated to supporting research in functional genomics is supported, as well as the development of a new core facility whose centerpiece is a functional magnetic resonance imager (MRI) devoted exclusively to animal research to support statewide research in cancer and neuroscience.

Acknowledging INBRE:

For each publication that results from grant support provided by the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR), a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), grantees must include an acknowledgment of support and a disclaimer stating the following:

“This publication was made possible by Grant Number P2PRR016478 from the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR), a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).” or “The project described was supported by Grant Number P2PRR016478 from the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR), a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and “Its contents are solely the responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily represent the official views of NCRR or NIH.” 

New NIH Policy Effective APRIL 7, 2008
