Orthopedic joints haven't changed much in 50 years. We are developing models & fabrication methods that are more durable, stable, and wear-resistant. Image: Dartmouth College.
We are also working to improve sheet metal implants for trauma repair. Here, students learn to use the biaxial cruciform machine at the UNH Olson Center. Image: Liz Mamros.
Tissue engineering is a major research thrust, with research teams at UNH, Dartmouth, and Keene State College. Image: Ali Asghar.
We are also focused on the research needed to create biosensors that will transform health care. Image: Kathryn Lapierre.

NH BioMade, a new five-year $20 million EPSCoR project funded by the National Science Foundation, will advance the rapidly growing New Hampshire biomaterials industry through knowledge generation, academic-industrial research partnerships, and workforce development. Addressing opportunities identified in the 2016 NH University Research and Industry Plan, this new grant will be used to develop innovative approaches for design and manufacturing of biomaterials, such as those used in implants and tissue engineering, which hold the potential to save lives and improve overall quality of life for patients.
AWARD WINNER
Congratulations to NH BioMade researcher, Dr. Chenfeng Ke, the recipient of the 2020 Cram Lehn Pedersen Prize in Supramolecular Chemistry! COVID delayed the presentation of this award, but it's now been made in person. A well deserved honor!
Keene Undergraduates Shine
As members of NH BioMade's research team, Keene State College undergraduate student researchers are making significant contributions to the field of tissue engineering. Their contributions support the foundation of revolutionary advances in regenerative medicine, such as 3D printed organ transplants. (Photo credit: Will Wrobel, Keene State College)
