Biomechanics, Biomaterials and Biomedicine (BM3) Instrumentation FacilityContact: Alexander GopenkoLocation: Walter Scott 126B E-mail: agopenko2@unl.edu Phone: (402) 472-2466 URL: http://bm3.unl.edu/ Our mission is to support interdisciplinary research in the areas embracing biomechanics, biomaterials and biomedicine (the BM3) engineering. The BM3 provides engineering faculty and their collaborators access to the critical research infrastructure that typically lies beyond the reach of an individual or small team of faculty in targeted interdisciplinary areas. The BM3 is intended to support the advancement of all College of Engineering faculty having interests in bio-engineering research, and will not be constrained to any particular department or group. We are making every effort to make these techniques available and affordable to anyone interested. The long term goal of the BM3 is to serve as a focal point for collaboration between engineering faculty and researchers in applied fields, such as human and veterinary medicine, dentistry, and pharmaceutics, and will seek to catalyze collaborative opportunities through networking activities. |
