UNMC-led consortium not in initial round of biodefense funding
UNMC’s grant application to the National Institutes of Health on behalf of a four-state consortium was not among the eight who received funding, according to an announcement Thursday by U.S. Health and Human Services.
Although the announcement was disappointing for Nebraska and the other states in the consortium – Iowa, Kansas and Missouri — UNMC leaders emphasized that this was only one of the many opportunities that the institution is pursuing in the area of biodefense.
