What we do

The center for biomedical research promotes interdisciplinary collaboration to expedite scientific discovery and technological advances. Our goal is to develop next-generation materials, devices, and therapeutics for biomedical applications.

Researchers in the center lead research and education programs to train the next generation of biomedical engineers and scientists, to provide a future workforce for Missouri and the U.S.

We also promote technology transfer and entrepreneurship to commercialize new knowledge, and we collaborate with colleagues in hospitals and clinics around the State, and at other universities, to make these technologies available to the patients who will benefit from them.
