The goal of the Center for Advanced Materials Research is to coordinate and facilitate research and education in materials sciences across the campus, as well as to foster inter-institutional scholarship and study of modern materials by advanced experimental and theoretical tools. The Center is presently anchored within several engineering disciplines, and the departments of physics and chemistry at Brown, with developing links to biology and biomedical sciences.  CAMR is the home to the NSF/Materials Research Science & Engineering Center (MRSEC) on Micro and Nano Mechanics of Materials, and the General Motors Brown University Collaborative Research Laboratory as well as other group investigator block grants.
