The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded a $1.1 million grant to the University of Maryland Schools of Pharmacy (SOP) and Medicine (SOM) to create a training program to enhance diversity in the biomedical workforce.
The five-year Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) program strives to increase the number of students from underrepresented groups in the doctoral programs in the SOP’s Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences (PSC) and SOM’s Graduate Program In Life Sciences (GPILS).
