The Biosciences Collaborative for Research Engagement (BioCoRE) is a program designed to unify and enrich the bioscience community across the School of Medicine. The program was funded from 2013-2019 by an NIH Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) award and is currently being supported by the Duke School of Medicine's IDEALS (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Advancement and Leadership in the Sciences) Office. A diverse pool of Scholars are selected annually from a highly competitive pool of applicants.
