新近研究课题:
Research Project 1
Advanced Microimplants for Medical Applications
Microimplants are capable of diagnostic, therapeutic and possibly surgical functions inside the body. Currently, microimplants such as pill cameras, cochlear prostheses and pacemakers are available. We are interested in developing more advanced microimplants that work inside the body for an extended period which require wireless operation, biocompatibility and mobility.
研究课题一
用于医疗应用的高级微植入物
微型植入物能够在体内进行诊断、治疗,甚至进行外科手术,对某些严重的病症具有重要的意义。目前,微植入物,如药丸相机、人工耳蜗和起搏器已经面世。我们研究小组结合超声技术,CMOS 传感芯片技术和微刺激器列阵,开发更先进的具有无线通讯和传能的,具有生物相容性和可移动性的先进医用微植入物。
Research Project 2
Brain-computer Interface for Medical Rehabilitation
Brain-computer interface (BCI) communicate directly with the brain and allow users to manipulate external devices like robotic limbs and digital input devices such as touchscreens by using their thoughts. We are interested in developing novel BCIs for medical uses to diagnose, treat and cure neurological and mental diseases by using a combination of innovative hardware and intelligent software solutions.
研究课题二
用于医疗康复的脑-机接口
脑-机接口(BCI)直接与大脑通信,允许用户通过思想操纵机器人肢体等外部设备和触摸屏等数字输入设备。我们有兴趣开发新型的BCIs,通过创新的硬件和智能软件解决方案的结合,用于诊断、治疗和治疗神经和精神疾病的医学应用,特别的我们将采用脑机接口技术来控制康复机器人和实现虚拟与现实场景的结合,从而提供更有效和更生动有趣的医疗和康复设备。
Research Project3
Investigating novel biomaterial interactions for organ-on-a-chip technology development
Organ-on-a-chip technology is a fast-growing field that seeks to recapitulate the structure and function of tissues, organs, and even organ systems, on a single microfluidic-based chip, allowing for tight control of experimental conditions and a rich medium for scientific discovery of disease pathways and treatment strategies. With our work, we will develop flexible electronic systems to probe some of the electrical and mechanical cues that impact cell-cell, ECM-cell, and other material interactions. This work will serve the organ-on-a-chip community of researchers in developing improved systems for mimicking tissues and organ systems of interest. Particularly, we will focus on skeletal and smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, and implantable brain-computer interface technologies.
研究课题三
研究新型生物材料对芯片上器官技术发展的作用
芯片上器官技术是一个快速发展的领域, 它试图在一个基于微流控的芯片上再现组织、器官甚至器官系统的结构和功能,从而能够严格控制实验条件,并为科学发现疾病途径和治疗策略提供丰富的媒介。通过我们的工作, 我们将开发灵活的电子系统来探测一些影响细胞细胞、ECM 细胞和其他材料相互作用的电气和机械信号。这项工作将为研究人员的器官芯片社区提供服务, 开发改进的系统, 用于模拟感兴趣的组织和器官系统。特别是, 我们将重点关注骨骼和平滑肌细胞、内皮细胞和植入式脑-计算机接口技术。
Research Project4
Modeling the effects of amyloid-beta and alpha-synuclein in neurodegenerative diseases
Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, have many shared or similar pathologies. The presence of amyloid-beta in both vascular and neural tissue associated with Alzheimer’s sufferers and in the Lewy bodies of Parkinson’s disease makes it a prime target for treatment. To investigate these pathologies, we will incorporate organ-on-a-chip techniques and develop 3-D culture environments with embedded “soft” electronics to mimic the complex milieu of the brain. We will model the impacts on cell morphology, mechanical function, and gene regulation with the goal of further understanding the role of amyloid-beta and alpha-synuclein in the development of neurodegenerative diseases.
研究课题四
模拟β-淀粉样蛋白和α-突触核蛋白在神经退行性疾病中的作用
神经退行性疾病,如阿尔茨海默氏症和帕金森病,有许多共同或类似的病症。在与阿尔茨海默病患者相关的血管和神经组织中,β-淀粉样蛋白的存在,以及帕金森氏症的路易小体,使其成为治疗的首要目标。为了研究这些病症,我们将整合芯片上的器官技术,并利用嵌入式 "软" 电子学开发三维的文化环境,模仿大脑复杂的环境。我们将对细胞形态学、机械功能和基因调控的影响进行建模,目的是进一步了解β-淀粉样蛋白和α-突触核蛋白在神经退行性疾病发展中的作用。
