Simultaneously advancing biomaterials research with clinical applications and connecting researchers at well-resourced institutions with those rich in diverse talent is the aim of a new center. The National Institutes of Health is supporting this effort with a grant of $10.5 million.
The Humanity Unlocking Biomaterials (HUB) center, led by the University of Michigan and University of Washington, is designed to spur the development of biomaterials solutions that have potential in medical treatments. It will do this by bringing together researchers and providing seed funding to kickstart projects.
