OK INBRE Research Foci
One of the most important aspects of the INBRE is the mentoring of ten promising new investigators in their research project endeavors. Mentoring will be an ongoing team effort including the designated project mentors, but also the INBRE Principal Investigator, the Steering Committee and the External Advisory Committee.
The research projects will be supported for 2½ years.
