The Medical Research Endowment (MRE) Fund was one of the first major fund-raising campaigns of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Foundation Fund Board. Established in 1982 to stimulate and support research programs of UAMS faculty, the MRE Fund received financial contributions from individuals, corporations, and foundations throughout Arkansas. Full-time UAMS faculty members receive announcements each year to submit applications for research projects in broad fields of investigative study, including biomedical, scientific, educational, clinical, and health service areas.
The current Medical Research Endowment submission is closed.
