K-INBRE award comes at a good time for Wichita State

The University of Kansas Medical Center has received a five-year, $19 million grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences of the National Institutes of Health, which will continue a Kansas cell and developmental biology research program that has brought $64 million into the state since it was first funded in 2001. Ten university campuses in Kansas and Oklahoma are a part of the initiative. "The K-INBRE award has come at a very good time for Wichita State University," said William Hendry, campus coordinator and professor and chair of biological sciences at Wichita State.
