About PR-INBRE
The University of Puerto Rico (UPR) is host of the Puerto Rico IDeA Network Biomedical Research Excellence (PR-INBRE). This is a program inspired by the National Institutes of Health Institutional Developmental Awards: IDeA Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE) whose efforts are to promote the continued development of biomedical research infrastructure in Puerto Rico. Such continued development is achieved through the implementation of a strengthened and cohesive structure and integration of common scientific and educational interests, collaborations, and a newly created mentoring initiative.
PR-INBRE will advance the development, coordination and sharing of research resources and expertise and will expand research opportunities for the biomedical research community in Puerto Rico, with emphasis on the Primarily Undergraduate Institutions (PUIs) of the Alliance. In addition, PR-INBRE impact on Puerto Rico’s Workforce and Economy focuses on development and enhancing the research capacity in science and biotechnology in Puerto Rico.
CORES
ADMIN
The Administrative Core will provide the programmatic direction to the entire Program. The Administrative core will organize all Steering Committee meetings, as well as the EAC meetings.
DRPP
Developmental Research Project Program Core provide research opportunities through professional mentoring and financial support to enhance the research capabilities of network investigators.
CRI
The Centralized Research Instrumentation Core impact the development of the INBRE network by supporting further integration with existing as well as newly created infrastructure.
BiRC
The Bioinformatics core always played a central role in the HPCf plans, and in 2001 the Bioinformatics Resource Core (BiRC) was established with support from NCRR BRIN (now PR-INBRE) program.
STCE
The Science and Technology Competency Enhancement core (STCE) establishes a working communication network between INBRE PUIs and graduate-level mentoring institutions.
SERVICES
CHEMTOX
