Research Interest

Currently the research mainly focuses on reconstruction of regenerative microenvironment to achieve bone, cartilage and spinal cord repair. We use biomaterials, nanotechnology and stem cells for :

1.  regulating the inflammatory cell to reduce the inflammatory responses
2.  controlled release of exogenous factors and /or preconcentration of factors, and/or 
3.  mimicking the mechanical properties of the native tissue to rebuild the environments for promoting tissue regeneration.
