Biography:
Dr. Zhongze Gu graduated from Southeast University (China) in 1989 and got his M.S. in 1992 there. He went to The University of Tokyo (Japan) in 1994 and obtained his Ph.D. in 1998. Since then, he had been working as a researcher at the Kanagawa Academy of Science and Technology. He then began a project to study the opal photonic crystals and made a lot of excellent work in this field. Since 2003, he began to work at Southeast University as a professor Cheung Kong Scholars of Biomedical Science and Medical Engineering. Now he is the dean of School of Biological Science and Medical Engineering, the director of State Key Laboratory of Bioelectronics. His researches related to bio-inspired intelligent materials, photonic crystal, biosensor and bioelectronics. He has published more than two hundred research papers in international journals and applied more than 70 related patents.

Topic title:AdvancedFabrication and Measurement Methods for Organ-on-a-Chip

Abstract:Organ-on-a-chip(OoC)is a cell-culture microdevice which can simulate tissue/organ physiologicalfunction. As a revolutionary biomedical technology, OoC was named “Top 10 EmergingTechnologies” by Davos Forum in 2016. The construction of OoC needs the cross-fusionof multi-disciplinary fields, such as tissue engineering, materials science,bionics, material processing/forming technology and computer science. In orderto realize the simulation of the physiological parameters such as biomechanics,the chip-body with bionic micro channel and cavity is constructed by 3Dprinting or other processing technology. Scaffolds with specific 3D structure canprovide support and inducing ability for cells’ growth, organization anddifferentiation. Sensors integrated within the OoC can be used to measure thephysical and chemical parameters in-situ. In the foreseeable future, OoC willgradually become an alternative experimental technology to animal experimentsand play an important role in disease model, drug discovery, human enhancement,environmental evaluation and other applications.
