About the Biomechanics Rehabilitation and Manufacturing Initiative (BRMI)

During the 2019-2020 academic year, the University of Nebraska at Omaha identified six themes or “Big Ideas.” The overall goal of the UNO Big Ideas program is to “create an intentional and inclusive decision-making process to prioritize investment in areas of campus strength and where there are opportunities to enhance scholarly, research, and creative activities at UNO.”

The Biomechanical Rehabilitation and Manufacturing Initiative (BRMI), led by Associate Professors Dr. Jorge Zuniga and Dr. Brian Knarr, was identified by the University as one of the “Big Ideas”.

BRMI Mission

The mission of the BRMI is to improve the quality of life of medically underserved populations through the offering of comprehensive rehabilitation services and the creation of low-cost medical devices for our local, national, and international communities.
