Undergraduate Research Support
ESU Biomedical Campus Scholars
Students are nominated by faculty and selected as K-INBRE Biomedical Scholars by the campus coordinator. The awards include scholarship and research support for each semester they spend working in the laboratory of one of the K-INBRE mentors. Eligible students are identified by the K-INBRE mentors and agree to present their research at the annual K-INBRE research symposium (usually in January).
