Research

The research in the Laboratory for Advanced Biomaterials, directed by Dr. Tzu-Wei Wang, is focused on the applications of tissue engineering principles, biomedical science, and bionanotechniology, to tissue repair, regeneration, and drug delivery. Lab members include backgrounds from life science, medicine, and different engineering diversity. We are a team with multidisciplinary area to work together in the design of functional smart biomaterials, novel devices and processes to solve biomedical problems, and the development of new methodology for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease. Our long-term goal is to improve human health and life.

The research studies in Wang’s lab mainly launch from the most cutting-edge research area not only with novelty but also clinical applicability! Main areas of expertise including:

  1. Development of Novel and Smart Biomaterials

  2. Multifunctionalized NanoMedicine Biotechnology

  3. Tissue Engineering for Regenerative Medicine

  4. Drug Delivery for Theranostics

  5. Biologically Inspired Engineering
