Our research on biointerface concentrate on understanding on how change in materials physical and chemical properties can affect interfacial adsorbed proteins strength, morphology, and conformation to the influence cell fate
Our research on biophysics looks into the effect of mechanical force on the molecular structure of extracellular protein regulating biochemistry and bioactivity, establishing a coupling of biomechanics and bioactivity.
We work on developing biomimetic and bioenergetics biomaterials, which enhance tissue regeneration ability by providing a microenvironment and regulating the metabolic activity of cells. Released metabolites from bio-mimicking scaffold support cells' metabolism and energy demand for cellular survival and tissue regeneration.
