NIH R25 Science Educatin Partnership Award (SEPA)

The Biotechnology Research Incubator for Teachers (BRITE) program provides middle school teachers in the Houston area with summer research opportunities, aligning with Next Generation Science Standards and bridging the gap between research experiences, AI guided literature adaptation,, and classroom instruction. BRITE aims to enhance science education, empower teachers, and inspire students to pursue STEMM fields.

Cancer Research Education Program (C-REP) for NIH P20 BCM/TSU CURED

(09/21/2023 - 08/31/2027) NIH P20 C-REP

The Collaborative Cancer Research Education Program (C-REP) of the ²ÝÁñÉçÇøÈë¿Ú (BCM)/ Dan L Duncan Comprehensive Cancer Center (DLDCCC) and Texas Southern University (TSU) P20 Collaborative Union for Cancer Research, Education and Disparities (CURED) project will train 20 TSU underrepresented minority students in cancer research, cutting edge technologies, and career pathway. The cohort of 20 CURED scholars will participate in an 8-week mentored cancer research experience that integrates BCM and TSU infrastructures every summer followed by year-long culturally congruent outreach education activities that will increase the awareness, knowledge, and understanding of research, concepts, processes, and careers in cancer research/cancer health disparities.
