ECE Professor Jim Browning and his team recently received funding from the National Institutes of Health to establish a new <\/span>Center of Biomedical Research Excellence<\/span> here at Boise State.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new center is the culmination of nearly five years of transdisciplinary collaboration between ECE professor Jim Browning and Ken Cornell, professor of Biochemistry. Their aim is to support collaborative research focused on the development of biomedical devices, sensors, and systems. Now, with this five-year $10.2 million award, they are poised to take their mission further.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
