DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): West Virginia has been designated as a State that has a historically low success rate in obtaining grant awards from the National Institutes of Health. Marshall University (MU), in partnership with West Virginia University (VVVU), was awarded a Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network (BRIN) award to begin to build a collaborative effort to sponsor research at WV undergraduate institutions. The current WV-INBRE (IDEA Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence) application will build on the foundation of the successes of the WV-BRIN award. To this end, MU, in partnership with WVU, will serve as lead institutions to a research network consisting of eight undergraduate institutions. The multi-disciplinary research theme for this network will be cellular and molecular biology with an emphasis on cardiovascular disease. Four undergraduate institutions with six research projects have been identified as full Network Research Institutions (NRI), one institution has been designated a transitional NRI, and three insitutions have been desginated Network Outreach Institutions (NOIs). Collectively, these schools comprise the heart of the WV research network. Administrative, Bioinformatics and Outreach Cores have been established to facilitate the research progress, mentoring and training, and career development of scientists and students at the NRIs and NOIs. The successful Appalachian Cardiovascular Research Network (ACoRN) developed during WVBRIN will be expanded in scope. Programs are proposed to provide research opportunities for undergraduates students that will help serve as a pipeline for these students into health related research careers. Significant activity in outreach to NOIs will be made to enhance their potential to becoma a NRI. In addition, through providing numerous workshops, seminars from in-state and out-of-state scientists, research training and mentoring, and access to state-of-the-art core facilities, WV-INBRE will help enhance the science and technology knowledge base of the WV workforce.

描述（由申请人提供）：西弗吉尼亚州被指定为在获得美国国立卫生研究院授予奖励的历史上成功率较低的州。马歇尔大学（MU）与西弗吉尼亚大学（VVVU）合作，被授予生物医学研究基础设施网络（BRIN）奖，以开始在WV本科机构中建立合作的努力。当前的WV-INBRE（生物医学研究的想法网络）应用程序将基于WV-BRIN奖的成功基础。为此，MU与WVU合作将成为由八个本科机构组成的研究网络的主要机构。该网络的多学科研究主题将是细胞和分子生物学，重点是心血管疾病。四个具有六个研究项目的本科机构已被确定为完整的网络研究机构（NRI），一家机构已被指定为过渡性NRI，并且已经应有三个肯定的网络外展机构（NOIS）。总的来说，这些学校构成了WV研究网络的核心。已经建立了行政，生物信息学和外展核心，以促进NRIS和NOIS的科学家和学生的研究进度，指导和培训以及职业发展。 WVBRIN期间开发的成功的阿巴拉契亚心血管研究网络（ACORN）将在范围内扩展。建议计划为大学生提供研究机会，以帮助这些学生从事与健康有关的研究职业的管道。与NOIS的宣传活动的重大活动将提高其成为NRI的潜力。此外，通过提供众多研讨会，来自州内和州外科学家的研讨会，研究培训和指导以及进入最先进的核心设施，WV-INBRE将有助于增强WV劳动力的科学和技术知识库。
