Student Research Committee

INBRE-5 introduces a new institutional leadership group of faculty student coordinators who serve on the NM-INBRE Student Research Committee (SRC), chaired by PC Shutter, overseeing the Student Research Program (SRP) and other student activities across network institutions. Faculty Student Coordinators (FSCs) participate in student and faculty recruitment for NM-INBRE research activities, appointed by institutional liaisons based on their faculty roles and connections within STEM communities.
