Transforming Undergraduate Education for Future
Research Biologists, is an important read for MORE
grantees and others committed to training the next
generation of researchers and scientific leaders. The
report, commissioned by NIH and the Howard
Hughes Medical Institute, points to a coming crisis
in biomedical research.
