Bioengineering for Tissue Regeneration

    Our work focuses on engineering bioactive systems that actively regulate cellular behavior and tissue regeneration through the design of materials, microenvironments, and delivery platforms.

    By integrating organ-on-a-chip technologies, microenvironment engineering, and regenerative biomaterials, our laboratory develops highly controllable and translatable in vitro models and therapeutic platforms. Our research aims to reconstruct key biological cues involved in disease progression and tissue repair, with applications in tissue engineering, neural regeneration, and nanomedicine.    Through multiscale system design, the laboratory aims to transition from passive biomaterials to bioinstructive engineering systems that guide cellular responses and facilitate translational regenerative strategies.
