Introduction

Professor Hui-Min David Wang is currently a full professor at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering, National Chung Hsing University; he graduated from the Department of Chemical Engineering, National Cheng Kung University in 2003 and received his Ph.D. As a promising young scientist, he continued his postdoctoral research at the Institute of Biochemistry, Academia Sinica in 2005, conducting in-depth research on DNA genes/proteins and SARS viruses. In 2005, he studied chemical engineering, biotechnology, and chemistry at the National Taipei University of Technology. He joined the Department of Engineering as a part-time assistant professor. Since 2007, he has served as an assistant professor, promoted associate professor, and professor at Kaohsiung Medical University, as well as the leader of the industry-university cooperation group of the Industry-Academic Operations Office, the leader of the academic cooperation group of the International Affairs Office, and the deputy director of the Stem Cell Center. He has rich administrative experience. In the past time, Professor Wang has published nearly 250 SCI international papers, including precision medicine, biomedical tissue repair materials, cancer research, micro-nano science, biochemical engineering, food chemistry, drug development, and biomedical sensing. , green sustainable energy, and bioactive material applications. In addition to publishing international papers and journals, Professor Wang also serves as a director/supervisor/review member of several academic research institutions to promote the development of scientific research; his scientific research results have also received several grants and a considerable number of patents (20 patents and Relevant technology transfer) and then transformed into industrial applications, assisting industry, government, academia, research, and medicine in moving to the world stage and create a win-win situation.

Our laboratory consists of graduate students in biomedical and chemical fields, and postdoctoral fellows focusing on cancer research (melanoma, breast cancer, etc) and skin regeneration (hydrogel for wound healing) experiments.

We have instrumentations such as an ELISA plate reader, confocal microscope, flow cytometry, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Microscope, freeze dryer, as well as fluorescence microscope in our laboratory and cell culture room.
