Huang Lab

Bioengineering, Materials Engineering & Biointerface

Welcome

 

'Biointerface@CUED', is driven by bioengineering research, focusing on 3D bioprinting and biofabrication for sustainability and health. 

Research themes include (i) sustainably augmented living matters;  (ii) organ-on-a-chip and tissue engineering; (iii) intertwining 3D printing and AI for affordable and ethical health and clinical informatics.

Our research is highly multi-disciplinary in nature, crossing fields of system engineering, biology, chemistry, polymer physics and computer science. We aim to develop new tools and methodologies for engineering biology, and exploring a new generation of tissue engineering constructs for personalised therapy, at affordable costs; and to provide new solutions for disease monitoring, animal-free drug testing, and better patient healthcare. Some of our research areas include:

  • Multiscale biofabrication​
  • 3D bioprinting
  • Organ models
  • Tissue engineering; System engineering biology
  • Fibre network bioelectronics and sensors
  • Fiber-of-Things (FoT)

3D Printing Soft & Bio

Within our lab we have developed a number of 3D printing techniques for printing of soft and biological materials. These techniques enable the construction of extracellular matrix-like materials, ultimately providing the supporting structures for tissue development and regeneration.

Organ Models & Tissue Engineering

This research theme focuses on developing models to recapitulate the microvasculature, and applying biofabrication and 3D bioprinting methods for organoid assembly. These technologies could lead to more efficient drug screening platforms, and manufacturing lab-grown tissues for tissue/organ regeneration.
