| The National Institutes of Health is the steward of medical and behavioral research for the Nation. Its mission is science in pursuit of fundamental knowledge about the nature and behavior of living systems and the application of that knowledge to extend healthy life and reduce the burdens of illness and disability. The goals of the agency are as follows: 1) foster fundamental creative discoveries, innovative research strategies, and their applications as a basis to advance significantly the Nation’s capacity to protect and improve health; 2) develop, maintain, and renew scientific human and physical resources that will assure the Nation’s capability to prevent disease; 3) expand the knowledge base in medical and associated sciences in order to enhance the Nation’s economic well-being and ensure a continued high return on the public investment in research; and 4) exemplify and promote the highest level of scientific integrity, public accountability, and social responsibility in the conduct of science... | |||

| Summer Undergraduate Research Program | |||
| Rice University has an exciting summer undergraduate research program that is specifically designed to give hands-on research experience to undergraduate students in the fields of math, engineering, science and technology-related disciplines. Other benefits of participation include: providing a solid foundation for the remainder of undergraduate course work, making new friends, developing professional relationships, and gaining a sense of what graduate school will be like, particularly at Rice University. | |||
| Summer Program in Undergraduate Research (SPUR) | |||
| The University of Oregon Summer Program in Undergraduate Research (SPUR) offers fellowship opportunities for both UO students and non-UO students. Fellows participate in research in the life sciences during the summer months (usually from mid-June to mid-August or September). Sponsoring labs do research in several areas including: evolution, development, genomics, structural and molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, neuroscience, ecology, marine biology, and biochemistry. | |||
| Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students | |||
| The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), Division of Minority Opportunities in Research Program (MORE) awarded the American Society for Microbiology (ASM) a five-year grant to manage the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students (ABRCMS), formerly the MARC/MBRS Symposium.

| American Association for the advancement of Science:Minority Scientist Network | |||
|
MiSciNet is a bi-monthly online
publication the main goal of which is to provide support to
underrepresented minority students pursuing an education and career in
science, mathematics, and engineering. Our audiences include
underrepresented minority students--undergraduates and
graduates--faculty, mentors, and administrators responsible for minority
recruitment and retention programs. By developing and nurturing a
virtual network of minority scientists through the medium of the Web
site, it is our hope that we may also help real networks to grow. Remember to visit the website's Ancestors of Science page to learn more about the lives and achievements of scientists, engineers, and innovators of Native American, African, and Hispanic descent.
