About Us
Established in the summer of 2012, the purpose
of the UCLA student chapter is to encourage the development, dissemination, integration and
utilization of knowledge in biomaterials among the UCLA community, as well as all members
of SFB, especially those in the Southern California area. Our goals for the UCLA SFB student
chapter are to: 1) enhance student interest in biomaterials and related disciplines, 2) promote
the advancement of biomaterials research and education, 3) promote industrial relations,
innovations, and entrepreneurship, and 4) further the aims and objectives of the SFB as they
relate to student research and education. We look to achieve these goals by offering a venue
for students, post-doctoral scholars, and faculty members to network and present on their
biomaterials-related research. Additionally, we are encouraging members from around the
UCLA campus, including the Schools of Engineering, Dentistry and Medicine, to participate so
we can learn from one another and start new collaborations.
