According to Murray Gibson, dean of the shared college, they have increased their rankings by about 19 points in the last two years. He says it’s all due to their messaging and their research funding.
When a technology developed by university researchers is licensed and integrated into a commercial product, that’s considered a resounding success. But when that same product eventually benefits student-athletes at the researchers’ own university, that’s cause for special celebration.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - A new foam invented by Florida State researchers is giving student athletes some much needed support.
The advanced foam technology called Auxetic foam, was developed by engineers at Florida State University's High Performance Materials Institute, originally for prosthetics.
But the foam pads are now being used in the TayCo Ankle Brace, used by some FSU athletes, including football and softball players with amazing results.
