Established in September, 2017, the SBC is a phase I center of biomedical research excellence program (COBRE) funded by National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) of National Institutes of Health (NIH). The primary mission of the SBC is to foster and conduct high-quality scientific research that advances the understanding of our sensory systems and disorders related to them [read more].
All publications were from COBRE supported investigator acknowledging COBRE awards.
