SEPA Panel

Dr. Emma Fernández-Repollet, Vice President for Research and Technology and RCMI Program Director, chaired the Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) Special Emphasis Panel held on March 14 and 15, 2006 in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The grant applications covered a broad range of technical areas from microbiology, cellular and molecular biology, stem cells, genetics, nutrition, cancer, to neuroscience and endocrinology, and many other areas. Twenty-one panel members participated in the review process.

The SEPA programs are designed to improve life science literacy throughout the Nation. These grants bring together biomedical and behavioral researchers, educators, community groups, and other interested organizations in partnerships to create and disseminate programs that give K-12 students and teachers and the general public a better understanding of life sciences. The NCRR Division for Clinical Research Resources (DCRR) supports the SEPA Program.

Dr. Fernández-Repollet is also the Principal Investigator of the Science Education Partnership Award, Biomedical Research Education Program (BREP) at the University of Puerto Rico, Medical Sciences Campus.
