The Interdisciplinary Research Themes (IRTs) were initiated by the College of Engineering & Applied Sciences to build on our college and campus strengths, prepare for future research opportunities, and accelerate our positive impacts to our state and nation through internal college funding. The Precision Biomaterials IRT was launched in January 2018 to integrate biomaterials design with drug and cell-based technologies to engineer and validate new combinational health care products and translate clinical needs into therapies - spanning from molecular design to medical product design.
