Impact

The Edward & Jennifer St. John Center for Translational Engineering and Medicine (CTEM) is a collaboration between the University of Maryland School of Medicine at the University of Maryland, Baltimore and the A. James Clark School of Engineering at the University of Maryland College Park. Together, researchers from these disciplines will tackle a broad spectrum of generational health challenges and drive medical innovations that benefit patients in Maryland and beyond. The 35,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility occupies the entire fourth floor of 4MLK in the University of Maryland BioPark in Baltimore. CTEM will foster face-to-face collaboration among clinicians and engineers as they develop next-generation medical solutions. This close collaboration will accelerate the pathway from research to patient care. This collaborative initiative is one of only five in the nation, setting a precedent for pioneering, lifesaving research.
