The National Institutes of Health has awarded a five-year, $17.5 million grant to the Montana INBRE program to improve the state's capacity for biomedical research and train new scientists in that field.
Montana INBRE is a network of biomedical researchers at universities, four-year colleges and tribal colleges across the state, led by Montana State University. INBRE-focuses on understanding infectious diseases of concern to Montanans, such as West Nile and hantavirus.
"The network is thriving. Over the past nine years, it's been growing, and we're seeing increased numbers of young investigators," said Ann Bertagnolli, associate program director at INBRE. "It has brought people together for the first time and allowed collaborations to develop."
