<p class="MsoNormal">The Biomedical Sciences and Neuroscience graduate programs are submitting an application to NIH for a T32 training grant to support our graduate students. As part of the application, NIH requires that we submit demographic data that has
not previously been collected for our graduate student population. This data is being collected anonymously and will be added to our graphs showing the overall demographics of our graduate student populations as required by NIH.<o:p></o:p></p>
