Project Bionics' mission is:

To recognize individual and corporate contributions to artificial organ history;
To identify the pioneers and their contributions to improved quality and length of life;
To document the experiences of scientists, engineers, clinicians and patients developing
and using artificial organs;
To link these past accomplishments to present and future developments;
To encourage education, scholarship, and research on artificial organ history
