Welcome to the IBG community!

IBG is at the forefront of scientific discovery on how genetic and environmental factors work together to influence the myriad differences we observe in the human condition, including addiction, dementia, and psychopathology. We are also a world-class training institute, preparing the next generation of researchers in genetics learn the analytic and research skills they need to succeed in an increasingly competitive and international research landscape.听

IBG is actively seeking industry and philanthropic partners to assist us in these endeavors.听We need your help in听recruiting world-class faculty (e.g.,听through endowments), funding innovative research studies (e.g.,听pilot studies that build听into larger scale projects), supporting early career scholars (especially international students who,听by NIH rules, cannot be听funded on our training grants), and hosting听events听associated with outreach, recruitment,听and community building. Our Institute is almost entirely funded by federal research grants.听Your donations help tremendously because they听can be used in ways we cannot use grant funding.

To help IBG in the ways described above by听making听a donation, large or small, please visit .

To discuss how larger听gifts, such as endowments, might be used to help IBG grow听in innovative and exciting ways, please contact the IBG Director, Matthew Keller.

If you would like to be part of the IBG community听and receive announcements and invitations to IBG events, please contact staff member听Janna Vannorsdel.
