Smith & Nephew said Tuesday it will partner with the university to research orthopedic disorders and therapies.
Smith & Nephew is a more than 150-year old company that makes medical devices like joint replacement systems, endoscopies to be used for joint surgeries and gels, films and foams to help treat hard-to-heal wounds. The university says the gift matches $5 million appropriated to the school's Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Sciences Center in 2007.
University President Harris Pastides said the gift will help the school recruit a researcher to lead the center.
