Society for Biomaterials (SFB)
The purpose of the Society For Biomaterials (SFB) is to encourage the development, integration, and utilization of knowledge in biomaterials primarily among students and the CSU community. Our objectives are to enhance student interest in biomaterials and related disciplines, and to promote the advancement of biomaterials research and education and its related aspects. The SFB will achieve these objectives by fostering collaborations between students and faculty, organizing impactful events, and providing resources that empower students.
