Opportunity Overview
Open Wyoming biomedical research opportunity. The University of Wyoming Wyoming INBRE program is accepting applications for its Fall 2026-Spring 2027 UW Undergraduate Research Assistantships, supporting mentored biomedical research by eligible University of Wyoming students.
Funding
The combined Fall 2026-Spring 2027 research award is $2,880, based on 80 research hours each semester at $18 per hour. Wyoming INBRE states that it funds about 10 or more UW undergraduates in its research cohorts. No applicant match or cost-share requirement is stated on the controlling program page.
Deadline
Applications and required faculty letters are due Friday, September 25, 2026, no later than 5:00 PM MDT. Wyoming INBRE states that late or incomplete applications cannot be considered.
Eligibility and Research Scope
The academic-year assistantship is open to University of Wyoming Laramie-campus rising sophomores, juniors, and seniors interested in biomedical research. Proposed work must address biomedically related questions and experimental research seeking to improve human health.
Required Application Materials
Applicants submit the online application and upload a resume or CV, academic transcripts, an abstract/project summary, and a research proposal. Faculty materials include a research-mentor Letter of Commitment describing supervision, expected learning experiences, and available research resources, plus two Letters of Recommendation from University of Wyoming and/or Wyoming community-college faculty. Faculty letters are submitted through the separate online faculty-letter form identified by Wyoming INBRE.
Award Commitments
Selected students agree to an average of approximately 10 research hours per week during the fall-spring award, complete required research and safety training, complete the proposed project, submit a written research paper, and present research at required University of Wyoming and Wyoming INBRE events. Applicants should review the full current INBRE terms before applying.
Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 61/100. This is a legitimate Wyoming healthcare-workforce and biomedical-research opportunity with an exact, current deadline and direct human-health research requirement, but the award is small and limited to individual UW students rather than healthcare organizations.
N9+ Fit Score: 0/100. This is a student research assistantship. The published rules do not establish a pathway for Nonagon N9+ remote physical examination platform, telehealth equipment, RPM, or vendor costs.
Dr. Miltie/QC Healthcare direct pursuit: No Bid / not an eligible organizational applicant pathway. Atlas does not recommend external outreach to individual students under the recipient-facing organization outreach lane.
Submission and Source
Applications and faculty letters are submitted online through the forms linked by Wyoming INBRE. Applicants should use the current University of Wyoming page and application instructions as controlling sources immediately before submission.
