Worlds of Connections
About
Worlds of Connections (2018–2024) was a University of Nebraska–Lincoln-led Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It was the third SEPA at UNL and aimed to continue the outstanding work by Judy Diamond and her team in the World of Viruses and Biology of Human projects. Our long-term goals were to 1) enhance the diversity of the bio-behavioral and biomedical workforce by increasing interest in network science among members of underrepresented minority communities and to 2) promote public understanding of the benefits of NIH-funded research for public health.
