Welcome to Chan’s Lab — Tissue Engineering Lab!

We develop natural biomaterial and stem cell-based technologies for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. We are also interested in understanding the cellular responses to different growth-stimulating signals and the interactions between cells and biomaterials.
