Mbrs Support of Continuous Research Excellence (Score): The Minority Biomedical Research Support (MBRS) Branch of the Division of Minority Opportunities in Research (MORE), National Institute of General Medical Sciences, re-announces the Support of Continuous Research Excellence (SCORE) program. This program announcement (PA) replaces an earlier announcement, PAR-99-152, which was published in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Guide for Grants and Contracts dated August 20, 1999, and integrates, unifies and supersedes the content of the prior SCORE PA and SCORE Supplemental Instructions for PHS 398 and for PHS 2590. All applications submitted for June 1, 2004 or later application receipt dates must be responsive to this PA. The mission of the MORE Division programs is to increase the numbers of underrepresented minority students who pursue research training for scientific careers, to increase the numbers of underrepresented minority faculty engaged in biomedical and behavioral research, and to enhance the science curricula and research capabilities of institutions with substantial minority enrollments. The purpose of the MBRS programs is to increase the numbers of underrepresented minority faculty, investigators, and students engaged in biomedical or behavioral research and to broaden the opportunities for participation in biomedical or behavioral research of underrepresented minority faculty and students. The SCORE program seeks to accomplish the above goals by supporting meritorious, investigator-initiated research projects in biomedical or behavioral sciences at minority-serving institutions. In addition to the SCORE program, the MBRS Branch also offers, for eligible institutions, the Research Initiative for Scientific Excellence (RISE) and the Initiative for Minority Student Development (IMSD) Programs. The announcements for these programs are available at http://www.nigms.nih.gov/minority/.
