The UB Center for Integrated Global Biomedical Sciences is an international hub for innovation that brings together scientific disciplines in a nontraditional approach to build capacity to address regional as well as global challenges.
The center integrates the work of faculty, trainees and staff. Gene Morse is the center director and works closely with a scientific leadership committee and an advisory board.
The Center also fosters an environment where scientists interact with other investigators at the University at Buffalo and the academic medical centers of the SUNY Global Health Institute. This environment is created through visiting scholar programs, web-based approaches that facilitate real time research mentoring and collaboration, as well as virtual seminars, conferences and workshops.
The Center for Integrated Global Biomedical Sciences (CIGBS) aligns with other university and research centers to better integrate biomedical research, develop technology and address thematic global health challenges.
The Center for Integrated Global Biomedical Sciences (CIGBS) builds capacity internationally to promote the development of biotechnology, health care system innovation and biomedical research.
