Nanobiology certificate program that harnasses nanomedicine applications
Examples of Federal Contracts and Proposals Expected to Result from the Institute
A few examples of teams of interdisciplinary nanobiology scientists the Institute might be expected to support. All are strongly interdisciplinary and involve multiple colleges.
- A Center for Excellence in Cancer Nanotechnology
- A Nanomedicine Center
- A MRSEC on bio–inspired nanomaterials
- Bioelectronics at Michigan
- Center for Optics at the Nanoscale in the Life Sciences
Five to seven years from now Michigan could be home to several externally funded centers and collaborative research groups working in the areas where Nanoscience intersects with the Biological and Medical Sciences.
