​Brown Group Biomedical Engineering And Materials Scholarships At QUT

Study in Australia at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) and win this scholarship. The Brown Group biomedical engineering and materials scholarships are available for potential PhD students from Australia, New Zealand and other international students. 

About Brown Group
The Brown Group combines advanced experimental and computational techniques to provide new insights into the structure-function relationships in biomedical materials. While focusing on musculoskeletal tissues and related biomaterials, the group maintains an active interest in other high-performance biological materials including spider silk and ivory.

The Brown Group is also involved in a number of translational activities, including the development of new optics-based diagnostic devices, scalable nanostructured surfaces and 3D constructs for regenerative medicine, new devices and approaches for surgery, and automated analysis/interpretation techniques for medical imaging.
