Mission
The mission of the Engineered Biomaterials Research Laboratory (EBRL) at the University of Vermont is to foster creative development of materials and material characterization technologies for the advancement of materials science, medicine, and sustainable design.
​
Societal Impacts
The EBRL investigates natural materials, biomimetic processes, and synthetic polymerization techniques, to afford a platform of innovative and sustainable products. The foundation of our research program focuses on the use and engineering of sustainable plant-based materials for use in the medical field, and in the general plastics manufacturing fields.
