A University of Nebraska-Lincoln team has won a federal grant to develop a program that helps explain advances in biomedical research to the public.

The university is joining forces with children, science writers and multimedia developers to create the educational materials, which will be used nationwide. The project is funded by a five-year, $1.3 million grant from the National Institutes of Health.

Project leader Judy Diamond, the curator of the University of Nebraska Museum says the project aims to improve the public's understanding of how the human body works.
