The National Science Foundation awarded Boise State University a $262,493 project grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to acquire a robotic joint simulator for in-vitro testing of the musculoskeletal system. The two-year award running from September 2021 through August 2023 will support the purchase of a robotic joint simulator to allow researchers to conduct laboratory experiments that simulate human joint movement. This simulator will enhance researchers' ability to test orthopedic devices and study muscle and skeletal functions and injuries. The simulator and associated research supported by this award advances the NSF Directorate for Engineering's goals of improving quality of life and economic strength through innovative engineering research.
