IBRO Fund for Undergraduate Research Internship Programs 2025 (Up to $25,000) – Opportunity Desk

Deadline: February 15, 2025
Applications are open for the IBRO Fund for Undergraduate Research Internship Programs 2025. This program aims to address the persistent underrepresentation of minority groups in neuroscience by supporting established programs for research internships for undergraduate students from community colleges and 4-year primarily undergraduate institutions (PUIs) across the U.S and Canada (e.g. attending a non-U15 university).
The program prioritizes students who may not otherwise have had exposure to research, offering a pathway into graduate study and potential careers in neuroscience. Kindly note that this grant program is not open to individuals looking to secure a research internship but rather to program coordinators offering an established research internship programs.
By providing financial support to students underrepresented in biomedical sciences, they aim to promote diversity, equitable access, and opportunities within the field of neuroscience.
