The Center for Bioengineering at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus brings engineering and medicine together to solve clinically relevant problems and advance healthcare innovation. Housed within the School of Medicine and closely integrated with the Department of Biomedical Engineering, the Center provides a unique setting where engineering-driven research is informed by close proximity to clinical expertise.

The Center supports research and translation across campus through shared engineering capabilities, including 3D polymer and metal prototyping, advanced materials characterization, FDA-informed design of medical technologies, and computational modeling for clinical applications.

Membership includes faculty, trainees, clinicians, industry partners, and entrepreneurs across Colorado, fostering a collaborative community focused on biomedical innovation and improved patient care.

The Center is directed by Dr. Kristyn Masters, Professor and Chair of Biomedical Engineering, who brings over 20 years of faculty experience and leads efforts to strengthen clinically integrated bioengineering research and training at CU Anschutz.
