Join us at the Rural Drug Addiction Research (RDAR) Center’s Seminar Series!

Join us for our March Seminar Series event featuring a presentation by Michael Taffe, PhD on “Racial Inequities in NIH Grant Funding.” This presentation will overview a persisting disparity in NIH grant award funding, that leaves proposals submitted by Black Principal Investigators at a substantial disadvantage. The talk will address how this has been shown to lead to a disparity in which topics of research are funding and how this may contribute to the underfunding of research on critical health questions that are of interest to non-majority populations.

This event is FREE and OPEN to the public. All are welcome, and there is no charge to attend this event. We will be live streaming and recording the talk. You can register, and receive your unique connection information, for this event by clicking the button above or by using the following link: go.unl.edu/f8ea.
