The
Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) Branch
offers special research training support to 4-year
colleges, universities, and health professional
schools with substantial enrollments of minorities
such as African Americans, Hispanic Americans,
Native Americans (including Alaska Natives), and
natives of the U.S. Pacific Islands.
The branch's goals are to increase the number and
competitiveness of underrepresented minorities
engaged in biomedical research by strengthening the
science curricula at minority-serving institutions
and increasing the research training opportunities
for students and faculty at these institutions
preparation for graduate training in biomedical
research.

Program or any member of the Steering Committee.
