【RESEARCH INTERESTS】
1.Biomimetic-intelligent nano-carriers based on cell membrane:This research focus on "membrane based biomimetic and intelligent nano-carrier", by concentrating on "biomimetic and intelligent nano-carrier", and developing "membrane based the multiple target functionalized "shell" , the intelligent nanoscale "core", efficient and safe therapy, and Theranostic systems", aiming at resolving the key technologies of targeted delivery and controlled drug release for the nano-carriers' safe and efficient therapy, exploring the key technical difficulties of synergistic cell membrane and intelligent nanomedicine to improve the therapeutic efficacy and safety. This topic mainly focuses on developing nano-carriers for cardio-cerebrovascular, inflammatory pathology, glioma and other application scenarios.
2.Engineered probiotics:Through material surface engineering (envelope, polymer functional modification, gel, etc.) and genetically engineered probiotics transformation, engineered probiotics are constructed for efficient and safe diagnosis and treatment of intestinal diseases.
3.Wound repair materials (Hospital cooperation reseach) :Construct the antioxidant, antibacterial and other active functional materials (nano, gel), to achieve the basis of efficient wound diagnosis and treatment and application research and development.
