Welcome to the Orthopaedic Bioengineering Laboratory!
Our lab focuses on the “Soft Tissue and Bone Interface: Function, Pathology, and Repair". Specifically, we aim to 1) characterize the structure and function relationship in the soft tissue and bone interface; 2) understand the homeostasis and remodeling mechanism in the soft tissue and bone interface; 3) determine the impact of interface deterioration on the kinematic and biomechanical functions at joint or body level.
Integrating theoretical modeling,
in vitro tissue and cell function assessment, and
in vivo animal modeling, our goal is to pursue a multi-scale, systems-level understanding of mechano-adaption mechanisms in the soft tissue and bone interface for better diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal disease.
We still have open positions for candidates seeking training opportunities in orthopaedic biomechanics, mechanobiology, and tissue engineering.
