Center for Biomolecular Therapeutics 

The Center for Biomolecular Therapeutics (CBT) is a collaborative initiative between the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB), and the University of Maryland, College Park. With research facilities at UMB and the Institute for Bioscience and Biotechnology Research (IBBR) in Shady Grove, the CBT unites faculty from UMB, College Park, Baltimore County, and other institutions within the University System of Maryland (USM). Under the leadership of Director David J. Weber, PhD, the CBT fosters interdisciplinary innovation across biomedical research and education. Additionally, the CBT will work closely with the new Center for Biomeasurement and Biomanufacturing Innovation (CBBI) at the IBBR to achieve this vision.
