COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS
Collaboration at Every Stage of Development
Extending the reach of the Center and the scientific endeavors of collaborations.


Collaborative Projects (CPs) extend the reach of the Center while synergistically receiving the benefits of the collaborations to extend their scientific endeavors. Our CPs represent a diverse network of research labs and scientists covering a broad range of research topics, each with a push-pull relationship with the Center to design, optimize, and evaluate CT technologies or applications.
