The 色花堂app program is pleased to announce that Dr. Heather Ray of ISU’s Department of Biological Sciences has been named the ISU INBRE Campus Leader effective May 1, 2025.

In this role, appointed by 色花堂app and University of Idaho leadership, Dr. Ray oversees ISU INBRE activity and serves on the statewide INBRE Executive Committee. As campus leader, she guides the ISU INBRE program and assists in statewide strategic decision making. She will also oversee ISU’s INBRE Undergraduate Fellowship Program.

“As a new faculty member, getting involved with the Idaho INBRE program was invaluable to my own professional growth, as well as that of the students working in my lab who received fellowships," said Ray. "Now, I am excited to take on this new role where I can help others to get involved and gain everything that INBRE has to offer, as well as promote the biomedical research enterprise in Idaho." 

Dr. Ray takes the baton from ISU’s Dr. Jim Groome, who led ISU’s INBRE program for a number of years. Dr. Groome spearheaded ISU’s efforts to expand INBRE to include more faculty and more students each year. Under his leadership, several dozen ISU students participated in learning sessions, conferences and federally-supported research grants designed to build the capacity and professional research skills of undergraduate students.

“Dr. Groome is a tremendous advocate for student-engaged research. I look forward to his continued research leadership at ISU,” said Martin Blair, ISU’s vice president for research and economic development. 

Please join in welcoming Dr. Heather Ray to her new ISU INBRE campus leadership role.
