At the Center for Biofilm Engineering (CBE), multidisciplinary research teams develop beneficial uses for microbial biofilms and find solutions to industrially relevant biofilm problems. The CBE was established at Montana State University, Bozeman, in 1990 as a National Science Foundation Engineering Research Center. As part of the MSU College of Engineering, the CBE gives students a chance to get a head start on their careers by working on research teams led by world-recognized leaders in the biofilm field.

    Community-based participatory research in Indian country: Improving health through water quality research and awareness
    (2010-07) Cummins, C.; Doyle, John T.; Kindness, L.; Lefthand, M. J.; Bear Don't Walk, U. J.; Bends, Ada L.; Broadaway, Susan C.; Camper, Anne K.; Fitch, R.; Ford, Tim E.; Hamner, Steve; Morrison, A. R.; Richards, Crystal L.; Young, Sara L.; Eggers, Margaret J.
    Water has always been held in high respect by the Apsaalooke (Crow) people of Montana. Tribal members questioned the health of the rivers and well water because of visible water quality deterioration and potential connections to illnesses in the community. Community members initiated collaboration among local organizations, the tribe, and academic partners, resulting in genuine community-based participatory research. The article shares what we have learned as tribal members and researchers about working together to examine surface and groundwater contaminants, assess routes of exposure, and use our data to bring about improved health of our people and our waters.
