  1. Center of Innovation for Biomaterials in Orthopaedic Research (C.I.B.O.R.) Paul H. Wooley, Ph.D. Director, Orthopaedic Research Institute KBA Eminent Scholar Professor, Wichita State University Professor, University of Kansas Med School WIRED Leadership Team Meeting, May 14th, 2008

  2. Purpose • CIBOR will develop an active industry in medical devices within the State of Kansas.

  3. The CIBOR Concept • Orthopaedic Device Manufacturers are not currently skilled in composites, and Composite Manufacturers are not fully familiar with orthopaedic devices. • The entity that serves to unite these Industries stands to revolutionize the orthopaedic device world. • The research skills required to unite composites and orthopaedics are available to multi-disciplined Universities. • Skills required to implement such advances require Device Manufacturers in partnership with leading Research Medical Establishments.

  4. CIBOR serves to unite two Industries with a common Goal

  5. The CIBOR Mission • Develop a new generation of orthopaedic devices utilizing composite technology • Adapt NIAR styled relationships between Industry and Academic Institutions. • Provide ‘common ground’ to promote the interactions of participants from diverse fields. • Place the initial focus upon one class of materials (composites) over a range of devices in one clinical specialty.

  6. Industry Driven Translational Research

  7. The Structure of CIBOR • CIBOR should be a free-standing entity, to emphasize ‘common ground’ and promote face-to-face interactions both with and among the Industry Partners. • In-house Core Laboratories, Instrumentation and Technical Expertise will be available to rapidly facilitate projects. • Laboratories will be available to house University and Industry visiting scientists on a project specific basis. Space will be flexible, emphasizing inter-disciplinary projects.

  8. The Components of CIBOR Close to a participating University. Close to Composite Manufacturing. Close to a major Healthcare Facility. Close to a Medical Device Research Institute.

  9. The Model for CIBOR is NIAR WSU is home to the National Institute of Aviation Research . NIAR accounts for 70% of FAA associated composite research. NIAR houses the Center for Composites and Advanced Materials Performance

  10. ORI provides expertise critical to CIBOR

  11. Via Christi/ORI Provides Orthopaedic Surgical Expertise and Device Manufacturing Liaisons • Under the leadership of David A. McQueen, MD, a new device has been designed and developed. The Wichita Fusion Nail is a three-component intramedullary rod designed to provide compression across the fusion during walking.

  12. CIBOR is a Collaborative Effort C.I.B.O.R.
