MAPRO Project Summary For the Phase II COBRE, we are strategically positioned to propose the development of research cores that will extend, enhance, and strengthen our COBRE infrastructure and research efforts. Therefore, we propose to establish the Machining and Prototyping Research Core (MAPRO). MAPRO will provide access to state of the art manufacturing equipment and highly skilled personnel for the design, fabrication, and maintenance of cutting-edge research devices to support human movement related research. Additionally, MAPRO will provide mentorship and device design consulting to all investigators, especially for investigators who do not have specific expertise in physical manufacturing or software development for custom devices used in human subject research. This training is crucial for the progression of human subject research, as an understanding of new technology is fundamental for a technology’s adoption. By definition, performing innovative and impactful research requires tools and devices that do not already exist. Recognizing the high reliance on multidisciplinary skills to create modern devices that involve complex hardware, electronics, and software solutions, MAPRO offers expertise across the spectrum of modern device design for investigators. The MAPRO Core has three aims: (1) To provide centralized resources for the design and fabrication of custom research devices and instrumentation. (2) To provide mentorship and training on cutting-edge manufacturing equipment, techniques and software that can be used to create new and innovative research devices and clinically translatable products. (3) To establish MAPRO as a leading resource for the University of Nebraska at Omaha, Nebraska, the Great Plains, and beyond for the development of new and innovative devices to treat and prevent movement related disorders.

MAPRO 项目概要 对于 COBRE 第二阶段，我们的战略定位是提出研究的发展 将扩展、增强和加强我们的 COBRE 基础设施和研究工作的核心。 因此，我们建议建立机械加工和原型研究核心（MAPRO）。 MAPRO 将提供最先进的制造设备和高技能人才 设计、制造和维护尖端研究设备的人员 支持人体运动相关研究。此外，MAPRO 将提供指导和 向所有研究人员提供设备设计咨询，特别是对于没有具体知识的研究人员 人类使用的定制设备的物理制造或软件开发方面的专业知识 课题研究。这种培训对于人类课题研究的进展至关重要，因为 对新技术的理解是技术采用的基础。根据定义， 进行创新和有影响力的研究需要尚不存在的工具和设备。 认识到高度依赖多学科技能来创建涉及的现代设备 复杂的硬件、电子设备和软件解决方案，MAPRO 提供跨领域的专业知识 为研究人员提供现代设备设计的范围。 MAPRO 核心具有三个目标：(1) 为定制研究设备的设计和制造提供集中资源 仪器仪表。 (2) 提供尖端制造的指导和培训 可用于开展新的创新研究的设备、技术和软件 设备和临床可转化产品。 (3) 建立 MAPRO 作为领先资源 内布拉斯加大学奥马哈分校、内布拉斯加州、大平原及其他地区 开发新的创新设备来治疗和预防运动相关疾病。
