Our research group brings together expertise across:

  • biomedical engineering
  • biofluid dynamics
  • tissue regeneration
  • device development

We investigate nutrient transport in biological systems—from blood vessels to plant roots—and apply biomechanics to understand and improve joint replacements and prosthetic design.

Our work also includes lab-on-a-chip technologies, biosensors for targeted therapeutics, and rapid diagnostic tools.

We are advancing tissue engineering and regenerative medicine through scaffold design, drug delivery, and high-resolution imaging with a focus on CT-based tissue histology.

Recent research directions include:

  • cardiovascular modelling
  • soft robotics
  • integrated simulations to bridge biological function and engineered solutions
