The National Institute for Innovation in Manufacturing Biopharmaceuticals (NIIMBL) program accelerates biopharmaceutical innovation, supports the development of standards that enable more efficient manufacturing capabilities, and educates and trains a world-leading biopharmaceutical manufacturing workforce to fundamentally advance U.S. competitiveness in this industry.
NIIMBL is part of Manufacturing USA®, a diverse network of federally-sponsored manufacturing innovation institutes, and is funded through a cooperative agreement with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the U.S. Department of Commerce with significant additional support from its members.
Through collaboration with partners from industry, academia, non-profits, and government agencies, we can collaborate on innovative manufacturing technologies that bring life-saving and life-enhancing products to market faster and at a reduced cost.
NIIMBL bioLOGIC is a project-based learning program designed to inform, inspire, attract, and recruit the next-generation workforce. Throughout the program, small teams of students are challenged to:
