Research Overview


The goal of our research program is to combine the biomechanics, transport phenomena, microfluidic technologies, and biology and medicine, to understand and engineer the fundamental structure and functions in living tissue and organ systems of our human body from nanometer, micrometer to centimeter scale. Our research achievement will lead towards clinical applications for regenerative tissue and organs, and therapeutic applications and health industry to replace the full animal models.
