Northwestern University received a $271,836 Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2031. The award supports the establishment of a new Quantitative Cell, Molecular, and Developmental Biology (QCMDB) Training Program designed to provide comprehensive pre-doctoral graduate training in biomedical sciences. The program focuses on cellular, molecular, and developmental mechanisms in biological systems and disease processes impacting human health, with the primary deliverable being structured training and education of PhD students selected from Northwestern's Interdisciplinary Biological Sciences Graduate Program and Driskill Graduate Program in the Life Sciences. The QCMDB program delivers pre-doctoral training through three integrated components: foundational biomedical training and education, communication and collaboration in research, and career exploration and development. The program will support up to 28 faculty preceptors in mentoring doctoral candidates during their second and third years of study. Training encompasses structured didactic coursework and enrichment activities designed to develop students' critical thinking capabilities, scientific reasoning skills, and communication competencies for diverse career pathways in academia, industry, education, law, and government. The program's outcomes will produce advanced biomedical scientists prepared for independent research and leadership roles across multiple professional sectors.Federal Grant Award Summary
