DE-INBRE The impact of a state-wide mentoring network on biomedical research capacity.
Article in The chronicle of mentoring & coaching, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This case example demonstrates the impact of targeted and sustained investment in research infrastructure and mentoring on a research ecosystem. The Delaware IDeA Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (DE-INBRE) is a statewide partnership funded the National Institutes of Health IDeA program and the State of Delaware which seeks to broaden the geographic distribution of biomedical research activity across the USA to better prepare students for biomedical research careers. DE-INBRE aligns with existing research on mentoring's role in professional development, faculty success, and workforce diversification. Studies show that structured mentoring and research engagement increase persistence in STEM fields. Faculty development models emphasize the importance of early-career support, grantsmanship training, and infrastructure investment in fostering sustainable research programs. DE-INBRE's approach builds on these theories, creating a self-sustaining mentoring network that enhances research capacity and institutional competitiveness. The DE-INBRE network includes the University of Delaware (R1 institution), Delaware State University (HBCU R2 institution), Delaware Technical Community College (community college network), Nemours Children's Health (pediatric healthcare system) and the Christiana Care Health System (large non-profit hospital system). As students need training sites, DE-INBRE also supports early career faculty with mentored research funding, grantsmanship training, and new technologies to build sustainable research programs that train the next generation of biomedical researchers. Since 2002, DE-INBRE has trained over 1,000 undergraduates and supported more than 100 faculty members who have secured hundreds of millions of dollars in additional research funding and published 100s of related scientific papers. Program alumni contribute to Delaware's biotechnology, public health, and academic sectors, while faculty beneficiaries now mentor the next generation of researchers. DE-INBRE underscores how sustained investment in mentoring and training fosters the self-sustaining research ecosystem needed to strengthen the biomedical workforce.
