The Center for Biological, Bioinspired, and Biomaterials Here we investigate biological systems and apply the lessons learned in order to develop novel,
bioinspired materials and biomaterials. Our research focuses on three main areas: Biomimetics or bioinspired materials design – synthesis of novel materials, devices, and structures inspired by biology. Biomaterials – the application of materials in the biomedical arena (e.g. implants). |
