The Rhode Island IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (RI-INBRE) program is a statewide network designed to build the biomedical research capacity of Rhode Island institutions, by supporting and developing talented individuals committed to biomedical research careers in Rhode Island. Research conducted under the RI-INBRE Developmental Research Project Program (DRPP) spans the breadth of biomedical sciences, including psychology, biomedical engineering, cancer biology, microbiology, microplastics, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular health, and biomedical data science. RI-INBRE hosts manages two core facilities for data acquisition and data analysis, the Centralized Research Core Facility (CRCF) and the Molecular Informatics Core (MIC). The SURF & STAR programs under the Training Core provide valuable research training experiences for undergraduate students.
The Institutional Development Award (IDeA) Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE) is designed to provide funding for building research capacity in selected states. The guiding principles in organizing this Network for the development of biomedical sciences research in Rhode Island are to:
- Facilitate and increase the number of junior investigators and to prepare them to successfully compete for independent extramural funding from the NIH and other funding agencies
- Increase the number of students being trained for careers in the biomedical sciences
- Provide access to instrumentation and bioinformatics core facilities for conducting cutting-edge research

As Rhode Island’s flagship public research university, I am so proud to have INBRE’s home right here at URI, and I am proud that our work is being recognized at the federal level. It’s a true collaboration between all our colleges and universities.
