Research
Our multidisciplinary research aims to advance minimally invasive medicine via the next-generation biomaterials and biomedical devices. We focus on three core research themes:

Research Theme I: Mechanical Biomaterials
Tough Hydrogels and Bioadhesives
Our work in mechanical biomaterials is centered on engineering next-generation materials that exhibit exceptional toughness and bioadhesive properties, specifically designed for minimally invasive applications. These materials are developed to mimic functionality of natural tissues, providing robust solutions that can be delivered through minimally invasive procedures.


Research Theme II: Electronic Biomaterials
Implantable and Wearable Bioelectronic Devices

Our research focuses on developing conductive materials that are biocompatible and exhibit bioactive functions, tailored for minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment. These materials are critical for creating implantable and wearable devices that can be inserted or applied with minimal trauma to the patient, providing real-time monitoring and therapeutic interventions.

Research Theme III: Integrated Biomaterial Systems
Biomaterials-Enabled Devices for Minimally Invasive Therapies
Our primary focus is on revolutionizing minimally invasive therapies through the integration of advanced biomaterials with medical devices. Our goal is to develop injectable systems that offer precision, reduced recovery times, and minimal discomfort for patients. By leveraging the synergy between biomaterials and cutting-edge device technology, we aim to create solutions that address complex medical challenges in a less invasive and more efficient manner.
