Brief introduction

My lab currently focuses on the formulation design (solution, gel, or spray form) of polysaccharide-based artificial saliva, physicochemical property studies of biomaterials, in vitro functional analysis of medical devices, and oral biotribological study. In addition, my lab aims to assist in formulating development strategies for biomaterial medical devices through different aspects such as competitor research, patent information, market analysis, and published literature in order to bridge the gap between academic researches and industrial applications.
