University of New Mexico Center for Biomedical Engineering (CBME)
The UNM Center for Biomedical Engineering (CBME) was established in 2005 and is dedicated to addressing a critical education and economic development need in the State of New Mexico through the introduction of bioengineering as a new academic discipline.
The Center is focused on building a critical mass of research in bioengineering-related fields at UNM by enabling faculty to form collaborative, interdisciplinary research teams that can successfully compete for extramural funding. The Center’s research emphasis includes biomaterials, nanobiotechnology, bioanalytical microsystems and bioenergy.
To date several major grants have been secured by CBME from the National Science Foundation and the Department of Defense. CBME is collaborating with scientists at Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratories and with other academic institutions in the state (secondary and community colleges), local industries and universities nationwide that will bolster its ability to foster significant research and educational activity in the burgeoning fields of bioengineering and biotechnology. This bioengineering program will be only the second in the US at a major Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI), and the first with an HSI with a full Health Science Center and a large Native American student population. Thus, CBME’s activities will have an important impact by increasing the diversity of the American workforce in biotechnology, perhaps our Nation’s best hope for maintaining a competitive advantage in the global technological economy. Biomedical Engineering has been established as a strategic area of marked opportunity by UNM.
