The University of Wyoming is one of 24 institutions funded by the National Institutes for Health (NIH) IDeA Networks for Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE) Program. The program funds statewide networks of higher education and research institutions in each IDeA-state and Puerto Rico to build biomedical research capacity through support for faculty research and mentoring, student participation in research, and research infrastructure enhancement at network institutions.
