She has been working in the fields of extracellular matrix biochemistry and biomaterials for over 35 years and was the first person proposed a non-contractible collagen-hyaluronan matrix in the world. Her expertise is in biochemistry of collagen and hyaluronan, biomaterials, tissue engineering, cell biology, 3-dimensional culture, biocompatibility, animal wound healing models, etc. Her lab has successfully established a series of novel non-contractible porous collagen-glycosaminoglycan scaffolds and the plasticity of mesenchymal stem cells by extracellular microenvironment. Recently, with a strict non-regenerative hind limb ischemia model in diabetic mice, she has invented certain novel drugs for the ischemic treatment to prevent limb amputation. In recent 5 years, 60 international patents invented by her were approved and 24 peer-reviewed scientific papers were published.
Since 2008, she was elected as a fellow of Biomaterials Science and Engineering (FBSE) because of her significant contributions in research and education. She served as a Taiwan delegate in the International Union of Societies for Biomaterials and Engineering for 18 years and Taiwan was promoted to a formal international member at 2004. She is now an editorial honorary advisory board member for the “Journal of Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering”.
