RESEARCH DETAILS
We are trying to establish regenerative medical engineering for regenerating living tissues in vitro, synthesizing mechanical engineering, material science and cellular/ molecular biology. Additionally, we are also trying to elucidate unknown mechanisms regarding how living cells sense physical stimulations such as tensile stress, shear stress, and hydrostatic pressure at molecular levels.
