NINDS invites applications for bioengineering research partnerships. This announcement is made together with 12 other NIH components.
Many of today's biomedical problems are best addressed using a multidisciplinary approach that extends beyond traditional biological and clinical sciences. Bioengineering integrates principles from a diversity of technical and biomedical fields and crosses the boundaries of many scientific disciplines represented throughout academia, laboratories, and industry. A bioengineering research partnership is a multidisciplinary research team that applies an integrative, systems approach to develop knowledge and/or methods to prevent, detect, diagnose, or treat disease, or to understand health and behavior.
Potential applicants should contact Dr. Albert Lee, Extramural Science Programs, National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB); telephone: 301-451-4781; email: alee@mail.nih.gov.
