描述（由申请人提供）：内布拉斯加州INBRE项目是基于BRIN项目期间启动的研究能力、基础设施和全州网络的进一步发展。它依赖于学生和教师在学士学位校园的合作研究活动，以及对研究型大学校园中技术先进的核心实验室的支持。nei - inbre的主要目标与IDeA方案的目标一致，将1)建立一个以科学为重点的多学科研究网络；2)建立和增加国家的研究基地和能力；3)为本科生提供研究机会，并作为学生进入卫生研究职业的管道；4)促进研究合作；5)向代表性不足的少数民族学生提供外联服务。6)提高国家劳动力的科学技术知识。科学重点基于研究型校园的专业知识，以及本科教师与这些领域开发的研究项目的一致性。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Nebraska INBRE Project is based on further development of the research capacity, infrastructure and state wide network initiated during the BRIN project. It relies on collaborative research activity involving students and faculty on the baccalaureate campuses, and support for technologically advanced core laboratories on the campuses of the research universities. The major goals of the NE-INBRE are aligned with the objectives of the IDeA Program and will 1) establish a multidisciplinary research network with a scientific focus, 2) build and increase the State's research base and capacity, 3) provide research opportunities for undergraduate students and serve as a pipeline for students to enter health research careers', 4) promote research collaborations, 5) provide outreach to underrepresented minority students, and 6) enhance science and technology knowledge of the states workforce. The scientific focuses are based on the expertise present on the research campuses and the alignment of research projects developed by the undergraduate faculty with these areas. The scientific themes that bring the network together are Cell Signaling, Infectious Disease and Neuroscience. Collaborative arrangements between undergraduate faculty and research mentors are integral to the development of these areas and increasing the research base and capacity for Nebraska. An essential component of the project is the continuation of the BRIN Scholars program on the undergraduate campuses and the opportunities for these Scholars to matriculate in the PhD programs at the research universities. Outreach activities to the Community Colleges will increase the participation of underrepresented minorities in the research enterprise and support disease specific initiatives. The Nebraska Department of Economic Development is closely involved with the INBRE project particularly with respect to the emerging biotechnology industry in the State.
