The University of Massachusetts 5 campus Research Compendium contains over 200 entries of faculty research expertise dealing broadly with biological systems and their biomedical applications (computer/math, chemical, engineering, environmental, physical). The compendium represents more than 900 research areas and 800 methodologies. The major purpose of the compendium is to promote collaborations both within and outside the university system. We hope that UMass faculty will find the compendium useful in discovering complementary or similar areas of research investigation conducted by their counterparts on other campuses with the possibility of sharing facilities and submitting joint research proposals for extramural funding. We believe that biotechnology/biomedical instrumentation/pharmaceutical industry and government representatives will find the compendium beneficial because it highlights some of the cutting edge research active in the UMass system. We feel that knowledge about the UMass faculty resource will in turn foster university-industry partnerships, promote economic development in Massachusetts, and ultimately provide health benefits to the citizens of the Commonwealth and beyond through new biomedical discoveries resulting from technological advances. Finally, as an academic institution with a longstanding tradition of excellence in graduate education, the University of Massachusetts plays a critically important role in meeting the workforce needs of the Commonwealth by providing highly competent researchers in these areas from its graduate programs.
