## Abstract

MISSISSIPPI INBRE 
ADMINISTRATIVE CORE 
Project Summary/Abstract 
The mission of the Mississippi INBRE (MS INBRE) network is to enhance the state's biomedical research 
infrastructure. The role of the Administrative Core (AC) is to provide leadership and organizational support for 
the network and coordinate the activities of all cores to ensure the program's three main goals are 
accomplished: 1) enhance the biomedical research capacity in Mississippi; 2) develop a skilled and diverse 
workforce in biomedical research and health-related careers; and 3) engage underserved communities and 
address health disparities. As the only statewide network that engages all academic institutions in the state, it 
is critical that the AC efficiently coordinates network activities to ensure maximum impact. The MS INBRE 
program cores have been designed to work synergistically to accomplish the overall mission of enhancing the 
biomedical research and workforce capacity of the state of Mississippi. The AC provides logistical support and 
oversight for all network cores. All network policies and procedures are developed with active participation of 
the Steering Committee and the External Advisory Committee. The AC has also developed internal and 
external evaluation procedures to develop priorities and ensure accomplishment of the Mississippi mission. We 
have developed the following aims to efficiently carry out the goals of MS INBRE: 1) Provide leadership and 
administrative support for all MS INBRE activities; 2) Development of biomedical research programs at PUIs; 
3) Provide support for investigators to facilitate research; 4) Sustainability and support of core facilities; 5) 
Recruiting students into biomedical research and health-related careers; 6) Broadening participation of women 
and African-Americans in biomedical research and health-related careers; 7) Promote networking between 
PUIs and research universities; and 8) Coordinate formative and summative evaluations of all cores and the 
overall program.
