Nanyang Technological University的Prof. Xiaodong Chen到访实验室并做报告

　　应重点实验室徐福建教授课题组邀请, Nanyang Technological University的Prof. Xiaodong Chen于2018年11月16日到访实验室并为我校师生作了题为“Nano-mechanical Interfaces for Cellular Modulation”的学术报告。

　　在此次报告中，Prof. Xiaodong Chen重点介绍了生物材料表界面与细胞的相互作用作用机制以及如果通过表面的构建来调控细胞的迁移。Prof. Xiaodong Chen的报告让老师和同学们更加深入的了解了表界面构建在组织工程材料研究中的重要性，同时也了解了通过材料设计在推动生物材料学科发展的重要意义。最后，在提问环节中，Prof. Xiaodong Chen和在座师生进行了交流互动。

　　Prof. Xiaodong Chen简介：

　　Dr. Xiaodong Chen is Professor of Materials Science and Engineering, Professor of Physics and Applied Physics (by courtesy) at Nanyang Technological University (Singapore). In addition, he is currently served as the Associate Chair (Faculty) in the School of Materials Science and Engineering, and Director of Innovative Centre for Flexible Devices (iFLEX) at NTU. He received his B.S. degree (Honors) in chemistry from Fuzhou University (China) in 1999, M.S. degree (Honors) in physical chemistry from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2002, and Ph.D. degree (Summa Cum Laude) in biochemistry from University of Muenster (Germany) in 2006.  After his postdoctoral fellow working at Northwestern University (USA), he started his independent research career as Nanyang Assistant Professor at Nanyang Technological University since 2009.  He was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure in Sept 2013, then Full Professor in Sept 2016.  His research interests include interactive materials and devices, integrated nano-bio interface, and cyber-human interfaces. He is the Associate Editor of Nanoscale and Nanoscale Advances and Scientific Editor of Nanoscale Horizons .  He also is the member of editorial advisory board of Advanced Materials, Small Methods, Advanced Materials Technology, Materials Today Energy, and ACS Applied Bio Materials .   He was conferred as the Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry in 2016. He was recognized by more than ten prestigious awards and honors including the precious Singapore NRF Investigatorship, Small Young Innovator Award, Singapore NRF Fellowship, Nanyang Research Award, Advanced Materials Hall of Fame, and Lubrizol Young Materials Science Investigator Award.
