BBL was established in 1997.
The goals of BBL are to:
- Educate students in performing advanced research in bone biomechanics and bone bioengineering.
- Apply basic engineering and biological principles to study microstructures and functions of bones.
- Provide a collaborative research environment in biomedical engineering for undergraduate/graduate students.
