One of the goals of the K-INBRE program is to identify and recruit promising undergraduate science students into careers in biomedical research in Kansas. To help achieve this goal, the program has established the K-INBRE Undergraduate Scholarship Program at the University of Kansas to provide financial support and mentoring to promising undergraduate scholars.
