We connect molecular design, cells and tissues, production processes, and data analysis.
FOUR RESEARCH PILLARS
Building on regenerative medical engineering, biological bioreactors, and gene delivery, we organize our current work into four interconnected areas.
We design and reconstruct cellular information processing using gene expression control, RNA sensing, viral vectors, and recombinant enzymes. Our work includes cell- and sequence-specific gene delivery and chromosome-based gene amplification.
Through cell patterning, 3D tissue construction, stem-cell differentiation, encapsulation, and culture technologies, we build functional cell and tissue systems for regenerative medicine and artificial organs.
Using CHO cells and genetically modified organisms, we develop productive, high-quality platforms for biopharmaceutical manufacturing, including transgenic avian bioreactors for protein production in eggs.
We integrate image analysis, machine learning, and time-series analysis to quantify and predict cellular and tissue states, movement, and function—turning subtle biological changes into actionable data.
HOW WE WORK
We move iteratively between design, construction, production, and analysis.
Define genetic, RNA, and cellular systems around a target function.
Reconstruct biological function as experimental cell and tissue systems.
Translate systems into robust processes for proteins and other products.
Quantify and predict function using imaging, time-series data, and AI.
