The Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) program supports the establishment and development of innovative biomedical and behavioral research centers at Institutional Development Award (IDeA)-eligible institutions through awards for three sequential five-year phases. The purpose of the COBRE Phase 2 award is to strengthen successful COBRE Phase 1 centers established in Phase 1 through further improvements to research infrastructure and the continued development of a critical mass of investigators with shared scientific interests who are able to compete effectively for independent research funding and further improvements to research infrastructure at the institution.
