Center for Biodesign

The process of innovation has been the driving force for advancements in medicine. The Center for Biodesign at FORE was started with this premise in mind so that surgeons and biomedical engineers could work jointly to come up with solutions to current orthopaedic conditions. The Center for Biodesign is equipped to handle all aspects of design, prototyping, proof of concept testing and patenting.
