Research Theme
To elucidate the mechanism of cartilage metabolism and tissue regeneration leading to clinical application.
Research Keywords

Orthopaedic Surgery, Joint Surgery, Regenerative Medicine, Musculoskeletal System, Animal Model, Scaffold, Cartilage, Bone, Meniscus, Biomaterials, Soft Matter, Clinical Application, Translational Research

Overview of Research

Our laboratory aims to develop bioactive soft-matter materials as a scaffold for undifferentiated progenitor cells for the purpose of fast implementation in clinical application. By carrying out animal experiments and clinical research, which is a position as a translational research, clinical practical application of the materials will be realized.

Charge

Message

Our laboratory aims to move our approaches all the way from basic research to a clinical application and back to the laboratory for further improvement.
