Yesterday, a new Bio-Mechanical research laboratory opened at the Mongolian University of Science and Technology (MUST). This USD 394.000 laboratory has been financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) under the “Update of Higher Education” project

This is the first laboratory of its kind in Mongolia and equipped with the 22 kinds of equipment.  The beneficiaries of the ADB project noted that Mongolia will now be able to do bio-mechanical research on the muscle tendon system, spinal cord injury, the structure of synthetic bone as well as tissue and organ research.

The laboratory is also expected to be a stimulus to Mongolian medical science. The lab staff underwent preliminary training in Korea in the context of the program.
