Alaska INBRE is proud to announce expansion of its statewide research network to include the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC) and the Southcentral Foundation (SCF) as partner institutions together with current members University of Alaska Fairbanks, University of Alaska Anchorage, and University of Alaska Southeast. This expansion further broadens research capacity in Alaska, especially at clinical and translational levels investigating health disparities in Alaska Native people. This expansion will also provide opportunities to researchers in these organizations to access the resources available in Alaska INBRE.
