The Redox Biology Center (RBC)
is organized as a broad-based interdisciplinary and multi-institutional
entity involving researchers from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln
(UNL) and the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha
(UNMC).
Objectives
The specific aims of the COBRE-supported Redox Biology Center (RBC)
are to buttress and expand the existing strengths in redox biology
in Nebraska by mentoring junior faculty to success, recruiting
new faculty with complementary research interests and strategically
enhancing biomedical research structure. Scientists are amalgamated
from two major research institutions in the state (UNL and UNMC).

Membership
The Redox Biology Center welcomes applications from faculty
at UNL or UNMC who are interested in being considered for membership.
We are particularly interested in further broadening our base to
include members whose research interests are in the general area
of redox biology and who would benefit from and contribute to the
activities sponsored by the RBC. Faculty interested in becoming
a member of the Center should contact Dr. Vadim Gladyshev (vgladyshev1@unl.edu or
402-472-2941)
